Long story short I was paying £1600 last year on my Trophy. Had 3 points, was 23, 3 years no claims and 4 years driving. Manchester/Bury postcode so basically the worst one. The £1600 - I forgot to ring them and get the price down on my previous renewal so they ended up just taking it and I thought ah well.
That's not the story though.
This year, they sent the renewal and it was £1400. That was with the points expired! Needless to say, I laughed. Ended up telling them to swivel as Greenlight offered me a decent policy at £999.
Flux then came back saying they could do the exact same policy as my renewal but for £995. £400+ less just because I said I wanted to cancel!
In the end, Brentacre have covered me for £889. This is literally amazing news as it's almost half of what I paid last year. Proper chuffed!
Moral: b****cks to your renewal. Shop about, ask your current insurer if they can beat it and the same with other insurers. A little bit of work can save you a lot of money!
