Can't haggle? help!

Hello,
Weve recently bought a new house and the car insurance is due for renewal on the 8th of June so following martins tip, 21 days before ive been doing quotes and phoning etc. Our old address is giving us quotes of around 460 but the new address, 300 yards away in the same estate but further into the estate (so probably safer!!) is saying around 600 quid! Tried to haggle anyways on the new address against this and to even get the new address down a bit in its own right, but i keep getting told they cant do anything and that its just fixed on what is on the screen!!! Am I just not saying the right thing or do car insurance companies not haggle anymore?

    Why don't you go on a comparison site, put all your details in and see what pops up?

    No need to haggle if you don't like doing it!
