Viv Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I WILL remember to do it in time this year. Are there any particular words / legal jargon I should quote - or is it enough to say I just don't want to use them any more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrym Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 When I changed insurers the new insurers did it all for me (ie sent the registered letter) - just remember to start the process very early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Trollope Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 The rules have changed. You can now cancel at anytime before the expiry of the existing policy. Your new insurer will do this if you ask them to. A simple letter (send it with a signature delivery) stating that you wish to cancel will do.

Hegs Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 A couple of links to standard forms for cancelling things:http://www.resilier.com/originale/accueilhttp://www.voslitiges.com/assurance/m27.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meg Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Me and OH got a quote for house insurance the other day and were told that due to the new rules we will be sent a renewal notice and have 20 days (i think) to cancel, otherwise the new insurer said that if we go in to them, they will cancel it on our behalf. We went in with a couple of months to spare as we were worried about cancelling in time but it now seems like it should be hassle free!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But last year the letter I had was dated so far back in time, that when it arrived it appeared that the 20 day period had expired, although I had only just recieved it .[:@] Call me an old cynic, but I think this was a ploy.

napoleon Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 So I'm not alone in continually missing the deadline to change! Every year I investigate new (and cheaper) house insurance but have failed to make the change.I know we all have different requirements and conditions but could anyone comment on the best company to deal with?Thanks, Alistair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
