@martinlewismse: A perverse warning. We're so conditioned to price hikes, if your car insurance renewal doesn't rise you'll probably go 'yay'. But… This is just the intro to scores of tricks from this week’s Martin Lewis Money Show Live on cutting Car & Home Insurance costs, watch the full show on ITVX.
My current insurance is £142 a month. I’m waiting for my renewal, but I did a lil quote online recently. I was quoted £60 a month. I can’t wait to see what a new quote brings for my actual renewal date.

My premium DOUBLED last year! I called them, I've been with them for 10 years & they wouldn't budge! Obviously I've moved on now but I'm still fuming

do something on breakdown cover! I had a quote of £195 from the AA for my renewal. I threatened to leave, they brought it down to £125. I told them I had a cheaper quote and it came down to £77! Almost £120 less... disgraceful that they don't provide the cheapest quote first

I.e. Do not give companies loyalty unless they actually reward it. shop around for everything

my renewal was 650 this year, comparison sites had it for 400. my own insurance was offering it for 420, wouldn't discount my renewal so I moved for 230 cheaper 🤷♂️

Has Martin got a knighthood yet? Considering how much he helps people and actually cares about people, if he hasn’t he should have one.

What can you do if they don’t negotiate because it’s email and online only with yes or no accept

The biggest scam is the prices continue to rise 30/40% in a few years then drop 5-10% and we are supposed to be grateful when we are still paying 20-30% too much.

The biggest con is the excess you take our insurance to be insured not to pay an excess
