This happened to me at A-quote. I paid for 5 months insurance before I realised. Impressed I was not.

Ring them and tell them you want your insurance terminated at the end of the current term, and that you dont want to reknew.

They are cheeky, i think a few people have fallen foul of that little trick.

"made for bikers" apparently. Methinks nope

A lot of insurance companies have an auto-opt in for automated renewals.

I suggest reading the small print in the contract you signed.

All insurance companies do it 'for your benefit'

I often wonder how many numpties just let it get renewed without even noticing that the renewal is actually more than they paid the previous year.

What ****es me off about it is that you then have to spend 30 minutes waiting on a premium rate phone line just to tell them you dont want to renew and hence giving them even more money.

How do you think they manage to sponsor the whole of BSB? Your very kind donations.
