so of course i was quite happy to see on page 2 of my renewal, in big red letters, we guarentee to beat a lower quote if you get one (i forget the actual wording) but eitherway this made me happy as i had a quote for under £433
Anyway, 1 call to AF later and mysteriously £200 has come off my renewal for no particular reason, i wish all companies could do that with my bills but i have a feeling they would go bust, but the nice young lady on the phone said she would forward the details of what was required for a price match, and a couple of hours later i had them
now i am on me phone rather than me pc right now so i will have to post up all the hoops you have to jump through to get this price match later, lets just say its a fair few and they seem a bit over kill
Anyway, i sat there, looked at it, and thought sod that it'll be easier just to cancel my renewal and save meself over £300
now surely, this is bad business practice on the part of AF, fair enough, i am one person and i do understand the need for fraud controls, but how many customers have AF already lost on this system?
so anyway, it was nice being with you AF, but you're just not the one any more, instead of hoping i was too lazy to look around so you could cream your (best part of) £780, or even the lowered amount of £540ish, why couldnt you just have given me a good quote? because now you get nothing
oh and while i think of it i also saved another £180 by reducing my excess down to just £50 from £250, yep put £20 on my insurance to do that lol
