Best answers:

  • If the comparison sites become marketplaces we might need new comparison sites to compare the marketplaces.
    Only said half in jest.
  • I've tended to avoid the price comparison sites anyway. You have to give your entire life history to them before they will you give you a quote, and when you read the small print in the T&Cs, you find that you will be bombarded with junk mail for ever more if you do it.
    I just stick with the old fashioned method of ringing round a few direct insurance companies and a few brokers. It doesn't take many calls to find out what the going rate is.
  • Maybe comparison sites should be comparing the prices of retailers rather than being retailers displaying their own prices instead?
