Just had my renewal through and although the premium has come down by £3!!! the total cost has gone up by £25! This is because they are charging me "a fee" of £43.59 this year ( £18.00 last year).
When I rang and asked why I got the reply "because that's our normal fee sir, last year year was your first policy with us so you got a discount".
My reply was " well don't you want to keep me?" The rep' said he'll get back, a few seconds later he was back and offered me a discount of £10 off the total.
Can I ask those of you who use CN is this fee of £43.59 standard and have any of you who argued enough got a better discount?
I would prefer to stay with CN as I think it's a reasonable price, £189.58 with the £10 discounted, because previous quotes plus breakdown insurance have come to more.
If the premium had been more I don't think I would have minded, it's the 'fee' that annoys me. All they have to do is take my money, nothing is changing!!
Cheers.
