Cashback and insurance

Whilst I have been changing insurance providers yearly I have only just started following the guides.
My record was a year or so ago, I managed to get my house insurance for free
Split the contents and buildings to 2 different companies and got cashback for both equal to the cost sadly most of the cashback now has to take buildings and contents together.
I have just managed to get my car insurance for £175 (£100 less than renewal) and an additional £22 cashback
With my house insurance I had to phone them and after a wee haggle they brought the price down to cheaper than I could find elsewhere even including taking cashback into account :j:j
All in all quite successful.
So thank you MSE.
