insureandNO

So last year I took out an annual travel insurance policy because of the number of holidays I was going on. Its about to expire towards the end of this month and I was fully expecting to take out another to cover me for this years holidays. But the cheeky bastards have sent me a letter telling me that they will automatically renew my policy unless I tell them otherwise. I think that this is completely out of order and was not amused. The worst part is that in big bold letters is the sentence, we’ve frozen your price. Well fair enough if the price has gone up significantly then maybe I would have said nothing and would have carried on with their cover. But no, the cost has actually reduced by £5, I quickly phoned them up, canceled the renewal and will probably end up renewing again online in a few weeks time ready for my snowboarding trip in February.

  1. This is the same thing for home and life insurance. They tell me 10 days before the renewal that they are going to renew it unless i tell them not too… very sneaky!

  2. I don’t have home or life insurance so had never come across this before. Its never happened with car insurance, they usually send me a renewal, but thats it. They don’t usually automatically charge me.
