Car Insurance - LVIC haggle

Hi

Just received my renewal notice from LVIC quoting just under £630 for both cars. I only need one car insuring (given up on the British summer) so the price dropped to just under £340.

Tesco online came in at just under £300. Without any haggling, LVIC gave me a £50 reductions so I paid almost £290 using my 4% cashback card. I'm sure there are better deals but, for peace of mind, I'm sticking with who I know.

Result!

:)

    I have just switched to LVIC from DirectLine.

    Despite being with them for the last ten years,they didn`t seem interested in keeping my business when I phoned them about a better deal.
