Does anyone know if car insurers will 'price match' other quotes?
Currently with Direct line, but Morethan is coming out £60 cheaper after cashback. I was thinking of calling them to ask, has anyone done this before?I Hate Jobsworths!!!0 -

They should do if you provide them with a screenshot of the better quote but I'm not sure they will if it's based on cashback because cb is not guaranteed

I've never forgotten the impact of winter 2010/11, when I was snowed in (high in the Welsh hills) for weeks on end. It snowed mid Nov, then froze, then stayed frozen, then snowed again, and I got out twice - once by landrover for 2 hrs on Xmas Eve to get some Xmas food in, and once by car on 29th Dec to see family. Driving downhill on packed ice was a nightmare. It was like being on another planet. The post could only get to a farm a mile downhill, so they used to bag everybody's up and leave it in their porch to be collected. And the farmer used to take his tractor to the nearest village to bring supplies in. The hill roads finally cleared the second week in January. Everywhere looked stunning, but you can't live off a good view. I moved out by the April.
Oh goodness that sounds to be a nightmare ! Sometimes that kind of life is my ideal and then I think of the practicalities :rotfl: I remember that year well, we were frozen for about six weeks. Thankfully that was in the pre-chicken days :rotfl:

just phoned waitrose about pyo stopping a day early. he said it will still work on any orders being delivered today. he said it had already ended. i said im reading your web page now and it states after today.
he said if you can remember your offers they should still work today.
i have my doubts,i was only calling on the slim chance of a freebie0 -

i often get told they dont match cb however it normally prompts them to give a little discount. so always worth a call0 -
