    I shall make a note of that OP, why did you go with them anyway ? and not go with a well known insurer ?

    Its the brokers fault you did not shop elsewhere before you went with them?

    They took £120 for a £40 bill? You can claim that back through the direct debit guarantee.

    No need to wait for the broker to refund it.


    £40 for buildings and contents? That sounds very very cheap is it for a dolls house?


    Or is that £40 a month?

    ,after sending them the required information,they still stole £120

    Did you send the information they required in time? If not, that may well explain the increase (sounds like premium rating occurred due to either change of information or information requested not being supplied on time)
    now have both for £17,

    Sounds more like a reduction in coverage.
    i have still not received any money from them apart from,its in the system
