I don’t understand the outrage🤷🏻♂️, it’s a practice all over the media. What part of the ad has you so upset. They’re actually offering to ensure you are not out of pocket by their offer. I took up an offer quite recently for-‘switch to us & we will beat your current insurance by 10%’. That is a positive customer outcome👍🏻

I thought the dangling of carrots to gain new custom had been stopped. My own car insurance was the same if not slightly cheaper than those on Compare the market. com than it was last year.
Given that most people's policies will be cheaper than those of the club I doubt many people will find the need to change.

As with R2B what's the big problem or the lowest low? or the 'disgrace'.
You don't have to switch or even take up the offer even if you do? It could also be said that the club is acting in our or anyone's interests who wants to switch?
The competition might not think much of it but that's their problem.

The Club used to offer to match and be lower than any insurance quote you could get. We tried it once, got fouled up in some of the hoops they insisted on, and walked away, hardly look at them now.
All they are doing is what other companies do, they are no better or worse. If you have a bad experience with any insurance, it makes you very wary, no matter the so called enticements.

Posted on 15/06/2022 07:47 by clarinetmanJust seen this add, switch your insurance to us and we will refund your cancellation fees. My opinion a disgrace and shows the current mindset of what used to be a members club.

Perhaps I am missing something but I don't understand the outrage? Insurance, I imagine, is a very competitive business? The more insurance the Club can sell the more it subsidises other Club activities, something most of us will benefit from? I have not seen the advertisement but I assume, from what you say, the Club is encouraging people to end an existing policy, from another provider, early and they will pay any cancellation fees? It would have to be a pretty good deal to get people to do that and as far as car insurance is concerned I have yet to find the CMC very competitive, cancellation fees paid or not!

Posted on 15/06/2022 09:28 by RogerP1956Could it be that the OP has misunderstood the offer and perhaps believes that it refers to cancelation fees incurred when you cancel or fail to turn up for a site booking?
