    Yes, it will be one of two things or possibly both. You either chose a company such as Hastings or Swintons who only guarantee the price at the time you got the quote. If you come back and log on the price may have changed (they can and do change these regularly).

    The other option is you have changed your details, such as change an excess or whatever. This is effectively a new quote and even when your previous prices is guaranteed for 30 days, this overwrites you previous details and generates a new prices

    I am beyond furious. I am really struggling to help my mum try and get a better cheaper car insurance, and yesterday here I contacted FOUR people by private email to see if anyone could help. Not ONE reply. I have just spent the best part of an hour checking out the 'top comparison sites' as listed by here, Gocomapre, and when i finally clicked the 'get quote' am told 'THERE'S BEEN AN ERROR', and when i tried to click the back button EVERYTHING has gone and I would have to begin again!!!!!

    Under Go Compare's website, when you go to enter occupation and enter houseparent, there is no matching business that you can enter, however you can't carry on with the quote unless you enter something here!:mad:

    GoCompare Website I had exactly the same issue, it's like they don't want the business. It also kept telling me the date was wrong even when I selected today. It must be within 30days. Checked the PC date / time was correct just in case, it was. When I got it to move on completed the details and 'THERE'S BEEN AN ERROR', What a waste of time!:mad:

    That post you quoted was fro August 2013, I very much doubt that the same issue has been around for all of that time.
    All matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves.

    Same error message, different time frame, poor site. Now not bothering with the GoCompare don't work / error message site.
    Comparethemarket seems to be working just fine, just got my quotes there.
