in Insurance & life assurance
well i got my renewal quote through the post which was about £750 but i didnt have the money at the time i phoned them up and said dont renew it. now i am in a position to pay for it and i just got a quote online with the same people, quinn direct and its now £1100 :O

they were obviously willing to insure me for £750 so why have they changed? is there anyway i can get it back down to the original £750? any advice on what to do?

cheers people
