Will Cam has just renewed his house insurance (Direct line). The cheeky begars wanted £526 for buildings and contents. I rang them to tell them their quote was way off and after being put through to the 'loyalty' team, I eventually paid £326. I went through a similar charade last year. I could have got very similar cover with Churchill for £40 cheaper but It was easier to just renew. To be fair to Direct Line, the first year we had insurance with them a load of ridge tiles blew off our house an most houses in the street. A nice roofer lives 3 doors down and cleaned up. Direct Line paid out straight away with no quibbling.
