Mind you...Bennetts don't seem to let you go very easily once they've got you.

I was with Bennetts for a couple of years, but changed this year because Ducati insurance were £115 cheaper for the same type of deal. Paid for it outright.

Bennetts sent me an "if you don't respond to this letter your policy will renew automatically" message, so I phoned them up and cancelled it. I got a Direct Debit mandate letter a week later from some finance company that Bennetts had already taken a cash advance from, in my name, to pay for my unwanted policy, which meant that I had to phone the credit agency, tell them that I didn't want their credit, confirm that in writing to them etc...

Phoned Bennetts up again and they were giving me grief about not cancelling. I pointed out that I had phoned them to say I would not renew my policy a week earlier...so they reluctantly cancelled, not without giving me an ear bending (and a subsequent letter) telling me 'you realise it's an offence to keep a vehicle on the road without valid insurance' blah blah blah...

I KNOW, THAT'S WHY I'M WITH DUCATI INSURANCE....
