I tend to use topcashback a fair bit for checking prices. Although never taken any insurance through them yet. Last thing i did was changed my broadband, got a nice wack of cashback from it. For high speed broadband, worked out £16 a month. That was deducting the cashback over an 18 month period. No other extras, because i don't connect a landline to it, and ive already got freesat for tv.

Mines not the top one though...i can't remember the speed, it was in the top two. Mind my kid helped me shop around, because I need to be able to stream the footie when i want it, so i didn't want any shhite package.

Yeah that was the only thing, it was an 18 month when i normally take a 12...but for £16 it was the best I could find at the time for a decent speed.

So how can price compare sites give you one price, then send a massively different price to renew?

Because they’re all conniving robbing spiv ****s.

My car renewal quote came the other day. Ag first I thought, “well it’s gone down, so that’s good. No need to do anything.”

But then I thought, read the small print anyway, see what’s what. So I discovered that although the total cost has gone down, I’m still being charged 33% interest to pay by instalments, plus £56 for roadside assistance which I never ****ing asked for, and won’t need because I’m in the AA.

Chiselling ****s. Tech companies are the worse btw.

Five years ago I upgraded my car to a newer model, when I informed the Insurance Company the quoted me £1000 a year, the price for the old insurance was £500 per year, I cancelled the Insurance and an hour later rang the same company as a new customer and was quoted £300 per year
I won't name the Company but their namesake saved our country between 1939 and 1945
