Just wanted to say watch out for the small print (that they only flash up quickly once you've clicked the 'buy' button) and is then sent out in the schedule:
Administration charges:
For changing policy details where there is an additional premium: £17.50
For changing policy details where there is a refund of premium: £17.50
For reprinting documents or changing policy details where there is no premium change: £17.50

Shocking. I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.
Grrrr.

    My wife tried them for a quote; never had an accident/claim in the 21 years she's been driving and yet their premium was through the roof :confused:

    I think they're playing on the "we're best value for the girlies" theme......

    Any advice that you receive from me is worth exactly what you paid for it. Not a penny more or a penny less.

    It's not that unusual to charge an admin fee for changing details.

    They were cheapest for me.

    Seems good value. Many companies are more expensive than that.

    Thank you for recommending them as a cheap option.
