Hi all
This morning tried 3 different comparison sites to get cheap and simple breakdown cover for my partners wee car. Tried 2 different companies on each site. Without exception each comparison site directed me to the providers website but would not let me complete. One kept indicating name was wrong, one would not accept bank card and the third just directed you to a website page with a phone number. The first two sites, interestingly, on the chuck out window also prominently displayed a number to phone.
My partner went straight into 'there must be something wrong with my card' etc etc. I said, "hold on, let us just try a 'Direct' site that does not subscribe to comparison sites". No problems were encountered. Straightforward and simple and only £2.00 more than the cheapest comparison site quote.
Any one else had similar?
I certainly shall not bother with them again.
