It isn't just insurance that rips you off. The last 2 years one of the big electricity providers have sent me a renewal contract for supplying to a property I rent out. Both times the renewal quote has asked for a tariff increase of 20-30%. When I've rung their "customer service" line to say the increase was excessive and threatening to change suppliers they have come straight back with a much more reasonable quote, pretty well in line with inflation. These people usually rely on customer inertia. Steve W
