Ridiculous car insurance renewal quote (feddit.uk)

I had a car insurance renewal quote that had a 110% increase since last year. That's more than doubled with no claims, accidents, or points.

I went to a comparison site and found one that was 'only' a 50% increase on last year. Insurance prices are ridiculous!

Mine nearly doubled too, and using a comparison website I was able to find something close to my current premiums. I phoned direct line to query why it had gone up, cited the better value elsewhere and they magically reduced their quote by £200 without even hesitating.
