My last year's car insurance was around £ 720. This year's renewal came to £3080 (No, it isn't a typo). Followed the MSE advise (thanks to all MSE contributors), got a direct quote from the same company's website for £680 and then used a comparison website and got a quote for £633, again for the same company. Called them up and told them they were cheaper in the comparison website. They asked me for the quote reference number and renewed it, no questions asked! How do the insurance companies come up with the renewal price.......................

They hope you don't look around, then they make an extra £2400 out of you. Utmost good faith remember, but only one way.
