Brokers or not they are still after what they can get.
But heard a good one today, we have an estate agent in town who also runs a used car business. Is there anything worse??

My friends live close to the Water in Southampton.
He works for an Insurance Company, They have told him he is in danger of flooding.
Just one problem, he lives in the top appartment of a multi story block???

House Insurance
I'm waiting with bated breath for mine due in a few months. I live on the top of a 3,350 ft mountain! Maybe when they Google they'll see the water tower four blocks up the road and I'll be done like a dinner.

House insurance
I have just changed from Lloyds to Aviva for House and Contents and gone from £265 to £111 per year, some saving.
We live near a canal and that's water but it never came up on the quote.
