       Car insurance renewal time.My current insurer increased my premium by £30, for the coming year.I called my current insurer to say I'd got a like-for-like quote from another company, for £30 less. My insurer immediately offered to reduce their quote by £30.Yeah, funny that.I accepted their revised quote.

       @aujawindar I think insurance companies take advantage of people's natural inertia to change provider. Changing provider is normally such a hassle that people will pay a small price increase to avoid the bother.However, I felt so annoyed by the price increase that I was compelled to pursue it.

       @fitheach Makes you feel you could have said £60 lower though right?

       @gemlog Well, yes. However, I only pay £179, so, £60 off would probably be pushing it. I just think the price increase was about profit, not costs.
