Car Insurance grrrrrr

[Barmaid]

Our car insurance ran out 2 days ago. No reminders sent. Thankfully, neither of us have been anywhere since Thursday and something in the back of my mind said "cars need reinsuring at end of November". Just phoned the company for a renewal and thankfully they have automatically renewed. We have a multi car policy and the premiums have gone up by £500!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!
What a rip off. Can anyone suggest a good insurer for up range cars (BMW 7 series and Mercedes SLK?).

I can't believe that for us (over 45 for one and over 35 for the other) with no claims over 12 years and neither of us having any convictions can have gone up 500 knicker. Robbing barstewards.

I wouldn't insure with a company that renews your insurance without warning you, with a £500 increase. Who are they?

It is probably against the law in some way, but you are more qualified to comment on that than me.

Well apparently they have sent out renewal information, but we haven't received it. They say it was sent out on 3 November. I have to take what they say at face value since our post is crap.

I use Swiftcover.

They don't bother with snail mail. It is all done on line and by e mail.

I would not do without legal expenses. It paid for my solicitor, my medical expenses, barrister in court - without the cover I would have been very worried as the costs would have been phenomenal had I lost. It took 6 years to settle.
And no, it wasn't the sort of case that a 'no win, no fee' set up would have covered.
