Inflation - when is this going to end?

[flook]

Motor Insurance is fooking scandalous at the moment: 82% increase this year. And that was with a slight reduction. I have shopped around.

Same car, a year older, no change in circumstances, 18 years NCD, been with AXA for 3 or 4 years as they have been consistently lowest, then this

They are taking the piss.
And we just shrug our shoulders.

How can they do that? My house insurance went up £30 and that after shopping around. My car insurance renewal went up about £20 until I shopped around but everywhere it was a similar quote so I called my provider, LV and they gave me a revised quote and it was £4 cheaper than last year.

I had a strange one this year with home insurance, was significantly cheaper to go with the renewal price than anywhere else on a comparison site even after topcashback.

Now Spurs have set the precedent reducing discounts for over 65’s, I can see us doing this soon.

What's annoying is I work for one of these companies and are payrises are no where near them amounts lol. Causes so much work every year in churning customers too.

Payrise? What's one of them?

Mine was as well, even though it had increased 35%

ended up with LV for £850, still almost double. Could have got £745 with someone else but with £5300 excess .....
