house insurance - want to leave Admiral - recomendations

[anonymous-user]

Hi all,

please move this mods if it's in the wrong place, couldn't decide finance or homes...

We just changed our home insurance to admiral. massive mistake- cheapest quote rapidly became more expensive when talking to the nice lady on the phone to close the deal, and then i'm being hit for a charge for each valuation i send in by email for stuff like paintings, jewellery etc (note- we do not have lots of assets, just a couple of nice things).

Can anyone recommend an alternative before i go on moneysupermarket... we're in a nice street in a "bad" postcode in south london, victorian house, all i know at this stage is come back LV and i will never select admiral again, their business model is not one i'm ok with (lowball quote, pile on essential "extras", hammer you for every communication etc etc).

Thanks

Thanks all, based on a recommendation from a friend, we did move our cover, to halifax- got increased cover, inc accident cover, and no additional cost for monthly payments. Good to know there are more recommendations and a broker on here too. I will bear this in mind next Jan.
