Guys

My Admiral renewal has just come through the letterbox, gone up just under £200.

Any suggestions who else to try?

Thanks

If you've got a tracker, try LV, they were cheapest for me.

That really limits your options, I could find anyone other than Admiral, who would quote without one.

They did the same to me - call them, tell them you've got a cheaper quote and they'll probably reduce it. They just put it up in the hope that you'll just renew.

Like you, my Admiral renewal quote was more expensive - double in my case! So I went with Aviva this year. with cashback through TopCashBack, I got it for £460 fully comp protected - same as I paid Admiral last year.

I don't know if they 'require' one, but as I do have one I selected it on their webpage.

Perhaps they wouldn't have quoted if I didn't select a tracker...

Admiral quoted me £300 more than last year. Call them up ... they just quote a silly price in their renewals and hope you will just renew!

I called them up and they reduced the price by £300

Just filled in an online quote with Aviva, only to be told they couldn't offer me cover. Never had that with any company before.
