Yes, Von...but why is it when you phone up the company that you're with to say that you don't want to renew with them they say they can do better on the renewal premium :-| :-| Too late I'd already paid with the new company :-P

Our broadband was like that. They could offer us wonderful things after we changed provider. Pity they couldnt offer it before. :-|

No this was on my doorstep Belle. I guess the front of my sandal clipped the edge of the top step. I shall revert to DM's I think. :-D :-D ;-)

Back in the day I used to do my car insurance through a broker. Much easier and

cheaper.Can’t do that anymore. :-(

It really surprises me that they don't make loyalty premiums for existing customers rather than giving lower offers for new customers :-|

What gets me is it costs them a lot by offering new customers lower prices whereas they could give existing customers a discount and they wouldn't be so reliant on getting new customers to keep their profits up :-|

That is too easy Belle. Why go the short way around, when you can meander up and down the garden path to drum up trade? :-| :-|

I wonder if Ann went to see Bouncy last night in concert? :-D :-D ;-)

Is that the bank manager talking Belle ;-)

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 19 May 2023 19:47

I can understand why Von :-)


The agent I was speaking to today was beginning to really annoy me as he kept saying ' we don't want to loose you' 'we can offer you a really good deal'. I think he could tell by my tone of voice he was pissing me off..... I JUST WANT TO CANCEL, I'M NOT INTERESTED :-P :-D

Fly

Fly Report 19 May 2023 19:48

Bouncy Who :-S

LondonBelle

LondonBelle Report 19 May 2023 19:50

I can tell you Fly it was so difficult to get people to take out insurance and then for them to let them go after a year or hope they couldn't be bothered to shop around was so annoying :-|
