    No. You would have agreed to the cancellation charge when you bought the policy.

    £150 for 3 months is probably getting around 6/7 months rebate which is around £75 minus a cancellation charge of £50 and its more or less right. Obviously we dont know the figures but the ballpark sounds about right.

    Can understand how you feel, but they have probably had to do more admin work through your cancellation than if you had kept the policy for a whole year.
