Home insurance with bad credit

Hi all, we are on a DMP and obviously have bad credit. We have home insurance with More than & have today received the renewal through. It implys we have to sign a credit agreement which is the cost of the home insurance for the year upfront - £160 in installments of £14 a month. Surely this will be rejected because of my credit & who should i use? x

    I have car insurance with More than and the credit check was only used for fraud checks, I also have a poor history but was accepted no problem.
    At the end of the day if you dont pay then they stop insuring you.
