I heard on a Facebook group last night, that they (MCE) are still taking peoples money!
Now I'm over my rage as above the UK company are a separate broker and presumably they are using different underwriters. Still pissed off with the company though as I can't get a quote anywhere near what my original policy was as it's too close to the expiry date to get the best deal!
Although I'll get refund (allegedly) I'm still paying 40% more than my premium cost in September, got everyone by bollocks really and they knows it.
