I’m really sorry to hear you’re unhappy with your new quote. I understand how frustrating it must be to see such a significant increase.

As a broker, at every renewal, we’ll search the panel of insurers, and we always do our best to offer you the most suitable quote, whether that is from your current insurer or a different one, if they are cheaper. I apologise we could not meet your price expectations on this occasion.

If you need anything in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us on the link below.
