I got my renewal from Bell through at the weekend, £679 fully comp. I went online and put the same details in on their website and got a quote of £440, I rang them and asked them why and they couldn't tell me!  :shocked:

I wonder how many people get their renewal quote through and don't bother looking around again?! They must make a killing by doing that!  :angry:

Yeh they price matched the online quote for me, i'm just hacked off at them in principal! If they weren't the cheapest i'd go elsewhere!

If you're that annoyed at it write to the company MD with some probing questions. They might give you some more money off  :cool:
