Direct line has been my car insurer for the last few years. I noticed my car insurance renewal arrived just 2 & half weeks before the renewal date. I never get enough time to look for renewal quotes and normally auto renew and where they send you the quote so late the premium goes up. I managed to find insurance almost £150 cheaper a day before but was unble to stop auto payment going through. Just called them now was very suprised to know no cancellation fees but will charge you £2.21 for cover for today which I don't need. WHY WHY WHY?? I ask myself in almost 30 years I have never heard of such a thing.
