CC - Devitt Car Insurance - Never Again !

I got my renewal notice for my (CRV) car Insurance from LV and did as normal, I went on a comparrison website.

As expected the renewal was overpriced and the best of it was that LV came out best quote on the comparison website ?

Anyway, I put that figure in the CC/Devitt insurance website and they bettered it so I paid the deposit and spread the rest over 12 months. 

All was fine until the papers came through and they wanted the other quote in writing? I have never had such a thing before, either CC/Devitt are quoting me for insurance or they are not, it matters not what other on-line or written quotes I have.

I then rang CC/Devitt to disuss the issue and after waiting 10 minutes listening to music withou the option to request a ring back I spoke to Jackie. The upshot was they wanted ME to ring LV and sort out for LV to allow CC / Devitt to speak to them about my quote from LV?

If that is what they call customer service at CC / Devitt then I am sorry but they are wrong. I have asked for my depost to be refunded and I shall use the remaining 10 days to sort out cover with a decent company.

Yet again, a CC member gets NO SERVICE from the  CC !!!

I've had my CRV insured with LV for 3 years now and they have never tried to boost that, my wifes car insurance or our house insurance so happy bunny.  I only use the CC insurance service for caravan and Red Pennant. Wouldn't consider it for anything else.

We are all different. I insist on renewal being automatic. After all I still get notice of new price with plenty of time to cancel.

We do too, it's not a problem as we can check the details and reject if needed. We use the club for MH insurance but nothing else.

Whilst this is a topical subject I notice the OP was 17 February 2014. Allowing for the first response being in July 2017 it's still an very old post that seems to have appeared without responses from years ago.

Only the repeats on TV can compete with CT resurrection 😉

Don't even trust comparison websites folks. This week I've had occasion to use such a site. Long story short, I knew from past experience that a certain insurer, who wasn't in the top 10 quotes, should be competitive. On the comparison site the premium was £240. When I clicked to access the insurers own webpage the premium was £48 cheaper! How does that happen?
