ok caravan club..advert says we will beat your current car insurance by £25..so I got a quote they did but doubled excess from 350 to 700...nasty trick...some people would not notice this..this means advert is false as they cannot do like for like
and beat it...somthing to watch for when getting a quote

    We did speak offline and after I had investigated the circumstances of your quote, we confirmed that this was due to your specific requirements and would not normally apply.  We are sorry we could not assist on this occasion.

    Derrick the problem with these "specific requirements" is that if it actually includes takeing your car onto the road and driveing it insurance companies are not really happy
    Undecided

    keep shopping around Happy
