Default Home Insurance: Bye Abbey, hello Halifax

Hi everyone,



My first MSE post.



So much for loyalty.



I contacted Abbey today to inform them that I had been looking around for Buildings & Contents insurance and that I could get it on average ?230 cheaper.

The Abbey chap was simply not interested and told me that Abbey do not price match competitor quotes and advised that the only way to reduce my premium was to beef up my home security (fit an alarm) and not to take out the accidental damage option ??



Told him that I'd been banking with Abbey for 22 years, his response was for me to cancel and get it cheaper elsewhere.



Just switched to Halifax and just made a saving of ?241 - nice[img]http://images.**********************/images/forum_images/smilies/sport-smiley-001.gif[/img]



Will use this saving to get cavity wall insulation [img]http://images.**********************/images/forum_images/smilies/wink.gif[/img]



Bye for now.

Default Re: Home Insurance: Bye Abbey, hello Halifax

i had abbey insurance when my kitchen went up on fire and being a large farmhouse kitchen they would only pay for half the units to be changed, the burnt ones and only half the tiles, how was i to get matching tiles when they were handpainted they expected me to have a kitchen with u lots of tiles and 2 lots of kitchen units !! and as u guessed i quickly moved from them.
