The Insurance on my Dimler Ritz is now due for renewal. Last year the premium was £156.65 and when I received the Renewal Notice I was astounded that the quote for 2019-20 was £4939.85.
I know that Daimlers are rare and expensive cars but could not understand the increase and wondered if this had anything to do with Brexit. I sent a copy of the quote to Dave Philpot and he replied that he was not surprised as most Ritz owner were Yobbos, Hooligans and Crooks.
So I rang the Insurance company about the incredible increase and the girl I spoke to was astounded, then laughed and finally apologised. She went off to speak to a Supervisor and when she came back said we have reduced to £141.
It just shows that it is worth questioning your Insurance Renewal notice

Re: Expensive Insurance Renewal
I had a letter from the VAT Controller a few years ago saying I owed them £0.00.
Re: Expensive Insurance Renewal
You could have contested that and claimed that they had miscalculated and that far from owing them £0.00 that they in fact owed you £0.00 instead.

It's that idiot Mr Computer again, always making mistakes and for such an educated person seems odd he does to know when he has done so. Syd

Re: Expensive Insurance Renewal
Another daftey!!
Just been on the National Rail website, as I need to go to Waltham Cross.
A mid-morning cheap-fare train will take me to London Euston for £9.50, then plus a further seperate ticket from Euston to Waltham Cross is another £9.50.
But if I key in for one ticket for the entire journey using the same trains/same times - its £79.80.
