Agreed, Pricematch isnt the way to go but unfortunately our industry has a habit of throwing the underwriting guide out the window and doing this, when they should just offer the best they can from the off.

Some of the Underwriters that we deal with do match rates where they are there abouts, but they do require written proof of the quotation (inc. premium, terms, cover) for due diligence and in the main they tend to walk away. Basically, If we're £300.00 out for your circumstances we will be unable to help.

Benefits can be stripped out to reduce premiums and taking a higher excess also helps, but for the record, we DO NOT play tennis and will not keep matching lower rates from "pinocchio" at "Thin Air Insurance Ltd".

Kind regards

Tony
