Tried to up the price

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand your disappointment and are sorry for the frustration this experience caused.
After reviewing the policy, we can see that the No Claims Discount (NCD) was initially entered incorrectly. Once the correct NCD entitlement was provided and the policy details were updated, the discount applied to the policy was reduced, which resulted in an increase to the premium.
We appreciate that unexpected changes to the cost of a policy can be frustrating. However, premiums are calculated based on the information provided, and any amendments to key details, such as NCD, can affect the insurer's rating and price.
We are sorry that the outcome was not what you had expected and thank you for sharing your experience with us. Your feedback is appreciated and helps us continue to improve our service.
Kind regards,
Molly

Simple to use
Simple to use. Reasonable price. Previous firm wanted nearly double last years price, so it was a no brainer choice. Thanks.

I would be happier if G&D sent me a letter instead of email to inform me about my account. I have brain fog & had no coped with loads of emails thus by time I looked into it, I had to pay extra £150. Would feel happier if company could send me my policy instead.
