Finally sitting down to review insurance for end of Jan. Just put the two renewal notices next to last years ...
We've never claimed in 10 years.
Post Office (contents) wanted 40gbp more than last year - up to 250gbp Cornhill (buildings) wanted 40gbp more than last year - up to 355gbp
So, 655gbp to renew if we do nothing.
luckily, we now have a secret weapon, having bought the freehold, we can dump Cornhill and go combined. Early indications are we'll be paying about 250gbp for both ... just need to confirm levels of cover.
One thing I have noticed about these comparison sites is that they are sneakily ignoring the fact I asked for 0gbp excess, and showing me cheaper policies with 300,350 excess !
