I thought that at the time but I guess that the insurance companies thought they might be pushing their luck to do that.
The last thing they need is an investigation into their sharp practices.

Damn, I wondered why mine had just gone up by £3.06.

Last year my renewal quote came through at a total of £35.06. I normally pay around £200 so I very carefully checked the cover and all looked fine. Nothing had changed - not my occupation, nor that of the 2nd named driver, no claims, no change of address etc etc. It was on DD so I waited until the money went out, and yes, sure enough they took just £35.06. Got the certificate, policy wording and schedule, with correct expiry date. And I double-checked a couple of months later, still insured. Got my renewal quote through for this year, back up to £190-ish. I've absolutely no idea what happened or why, but I've not complained about it.

I bet they would have argued the toss if you'd needed to claim though ...

Is that about $240 USD?

Here's your answer in one short acronym: WFH (you no longer drive anywhere).

Works well for me. I only fill the tank in one(*) car every 4 or 5 weeks.
(*) I have one car. My wife has two but she doesn't drive much. We have a 4th, the daughter's school car, which is an old beater we drive in the winter when the weather's bad.

I pay over $3,500 per year for two vehicles. But I live in New Jersey, the state with the highest rates in the country.

Good explanation... But I fear the interviewer will remain frozen by incomprehension!

You just have to hope either the receptionist or the cleaning people know to hit ctrl+C.
