I took out my policy with Halifax after using a comparison site as many people do to try and save a bit of money.
After 3 days of being insured with them I recieved a letter informing me that the underwriters (A company I had held insurance with before with no problems) had refused to cover me at the price and T&C's Halifax had offered.
I thought ok fine I shall go elsewhere. Little did I know that this minor incident has now been recorded on the national insurance database and as a result my premiums have QUADRUPLED!!!!
You are much better off going to a real insurance company - one that issues it's own insurance and is not held to ransom by underwriters.
Halifax will not help you, Halifax will not fight for you. They will simply leave you out of pocket for the rest of your life as they have done with me.
