Trouble retrieving Confused.com quote

Hi,
I done several searches for car insurance on Confused.com for my upcoming renewal.
I can see the quotes but the only option under each is is "show all prices" However, clicking that does a fresh search and updates it all to todays prices and I lose the old quote.
Used different browsers. I'm logged in and have used confused before without problem. All quotes are from the last week or two
The quotes are getting higher every day!
Any ideas?
Thank you

Unless it was a 'guaranteed for x days' quote then prices are going to fluctuate.
Evidence suggests prime time is 3 weeks before renewal. Have you looked at;

Oh phooey
Thank you, I'll check the link0 -
As you have found out some comparison sites alter the price when you refresh the page and the quote is only valid for that moment in time.
Some will give you a quote reference though, that will be valid for longer and usually a better option.
As you get closer to the renewal the prices can increase, I do mine about 2 weeks before and save the reference or buy it there and then with the quote still live.
So i usually get my quotes online, phone my current insurer to see if they can match it. Usually its a simple case of take a screenshot of the quotes and they match it. If not buy it online.
I was curious and checked the quotes on the day my policy was due and the prices had increased by over £100. Dont leaves quotes until the day its due...Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
