We have been insured with Y for quite a few years, Y has now been sold to Topsail. We have just realised that our insurance ran out 3 days ago and we have not had a renewal note from Topsail. Having just phoned them they confirm that they somehow missed sending it out! Needless to say I’m not impressed, and even less impressed that our premium has increased by over 50% in 2 years, even though we’ve had over 30 years of continuous claim free boating.
I guess we should have been more aware of the renewal date, but we have ALWAYS had a renewal reminder on all our different boats weeks before the renewal date.
I have contacted Curtis Marine in Plymouth for an alternative quote and am awaiting the details. Does anyone have any other recommendations?
Also if you were with Y it is perhaps worth checking and diarising a few weeks before your renewal date so you are not left uninsured if, like us, you rely on a renewal invite being sent before your current policy expires!
