I think the compare sites proliferation mean that if you dont use them...you almost certainly will get ripped off. The insurers are simply being chancers by trying a rise in premium.
Since I started using compare sites, all my insurance has been obtained significantly cheaper, hence it is now an ibso facto...
I compare buying insurance to getting best interest rates on savings...you MUST shop around, since banks, like insurers profit from folks indifference . I had letters from 2 of my savings providers claiming to offer best rates after promo period...only to find after a simple search I could get at least 20% more interest just by opening a new account at another bank!
