They're hoping that you just take the easy way out & re-insure without ringing around for other quotes .... a lot do. I suppose it only takes a few to do that & they're quids in!

I'm a little older, but have 3 cars insured for a few quid less than that ;)

Other people's claims should not be having that effect on your own insurance, it is not that specific.

Feel free to give us a try for a comparison, we'd be very happy to help.

Just to be ultra-pedantic, it's 150% more (to two sig figs)... ;)

It is an increase of over 250%, but 150% more. So both correct :)

As a 100% of 362 = 360, 150% of 362 = 543
