Cable Forum - Moans and Pet Hates

Last years car insurers who presume that you automatically want to renew your policy with them and deduct money from your bank account without authorisation. So you end up having to phone them for a refund. :banghead:

Autorenew? They should have told you in advance what they were ripping you off for. Always opt out of such an arrangement.

My insurer sends me a letter well prior to renewal detailing clearly the new price, the current price and the change. This is in addition to changes in the policy terms.

The RAC offered us a renewal, that weekend (Jubilee) the AA had a special offer, better cover and less than half the price. We called RAC to cancel and they upgraded our cover and beat the price by £1. Worth phoning around.

'FAQS' - usually listed after some new policy has been revealed.
How do they know they are faqs if something has just been announced?
More like these are the questions we'd like to answer and are not open to any others !

None of the problems that actually drive you to read FAQs are ever listed there.

The latest buzz word - ' Perfect !'.
Really annoying for some reason, particularly when it isn't perfect.

Lots of wasps buzzing about just above our front door/porch - on closer inspection, it appears they are going in/out just below the lead flashing on the porch.

Someone's coming out tomorrow to look at it/them...

Don't like wasps but they are useful. Just not in our houses.

To be fair it's those evil yellow jackets that get no mercy.

Bug safari's are fun. :sniper:

Flies are a big one for me! They leave tiny stains around windows too.
Awful things!

God created them, so ask him about it.

Mind you, he also created Trump and Putin so he does have several questions to answer.....
