Hello everyone, I have always used the internet to find affordable auto insurance. This year was a bit different because I completely forgot who was insuring my car. Luckily, I remembered that the payment was due on March 7th, so I began shopping around and found a good deal at Hastings Direct for £295. I paid and made sure to save the email. Today, I received an email from Hastings informing me that next year's insurance would be £340, starting on March 7th. Since I had automatic renewal, they would take care of that. This sent me to the Hastings website, where I discovered that my old insurance was priced at £294 and the new one I had taken out was £295. I decided to remove the auto reminder from my old insurance, which would have cost £340 for another year of coverage, which is £46 more than my sub-£300 policy.

It appears to be reasonable. Sweet.

Our family has used a broker for the past five years to combine our many auto policies with our home, barn, and stable policies. I could certainly save some money by searching online, but I'd rather deal with a real person and enjoy my time than spend a few pounds.
