I have used Lancaster Insurance for many years now, but getting fed up with having to haggle with them each time in recent years because the overall price seems to jump up dramatically. This time they are asking 16% more than last year. By comparison my pay rise was 2%. What is going on?
In the last 2 or 3 years I have had to spend time on the phone with them asking for justification of the hike in price, then we usually settle on a small but reasonable difference compared to last year.
The van insurance is due again and this time the 'arrangement' fee is £49.50. This compares to the basic premium of just £73 and legal protection is £29.50. ( I can remember when that used to be just £1). It's the arrangement fee that winds me up.
I might try elsewhere, fed up with these insurance scams each year. I have certainly started switching the house insurance and my wife's modern car insurance each time, might do the same with the classic as well.
Cheers, Mick
