£41 a month on home insurance? That's a bit dear is it not?

A few claims gone in over the last few years Gav?

I couldn't believe it when I seen it.

Because she pays the DD I hadn't noticed. £500 a year and no I hadn't even claimed.

When I was leaving they tried to say they are better than the rest and give you more for your cash. Slavering c***s.

You'd be amazed how many people pay that without realising it.

Yeah we have contents too, think that's about £10 a month maybe. Gav was talking about building insurance though.

 

Home insurance is buildings and contents.

This can be purchased for around £150 per year no problem.

What should home insurance cost then? It is included in my factor fee.



I pay £39 all in but that's from the bank. I could get it a lot cheaper but the bank wouldn't release the money for the mortgage until we had proof of insurance so to save going back and forward I just agreed to go with them as I didn't trust the seller of the house to not keep her word of not selling to someone else (gentleman's handshake). I've every intention of shopping elsewhere once this year's runs out.

Home insurance is 20 a month and my factor for my building which I pay to the home group is 40 a month and it's the biggest waste of money going. All they do is tidy up the entry and staircase.


£40 Factoring?

For cleaning the stair and tidying up the garden. They're ripping the c**t out of you Lichtie. Punch them all in the face.

Set up a communal Facebook page and group together and get the factor fee people to f**k. Demand to see a price breakdown of what they're charging you for as well.


Get an Invoice just with a General works comment on it but it's starting to frustrate me. Think I might actually phone them because there's garden areas at the front and most of them are fine but there's a wee area that looks like a total shitehole, be decent if they actually tidied it up a bit.

Or just do what [mention=1852]Rugster[/mention] did when we lived in a flat and refuse to pay them. 


How did that play out?

Really close to making a complaint. Worst bit is like Throbber it's going to go up, basically purely because it's a new financial year next month.

Load of pish.

Not well. That was in my younger care free days so I just ignored the bills for a few years and ended up having to pay them what was owed before I could sell the flat as they basically put a charge on the property. :lol:

It might have worked if they were a private firm and I could have come to some arrangement with them about paying less than owed, but it was the council who factored the block we were in so I was onto plums.

In November yes but left in February. I bloody hate BT. Biggest decision I ever made was leaving tesco to chase the money. Totally ruined me :-(.
Now been going on a month without a job and first interview. The only job I applied for where I was able to hand in my CV and speak to the manager.

Call centre work is certainly not for me :-(


I was at BT for a while before, easiest money I've ever made!
