Hope this helps someone -

Playdo (1) and the Mangled one (2) came up for renewal with a very well known ex government insurance co:

Renewal "Offer"
1: $945
2: $1281

After shopping around, then phoning afore mentioned well known co:

Customer "Retention Offer"
1: $792
2: $1095

Amount saved = >$300

Note - Excess, all T&Cs etc remained unchanged!

Postscript:

135 sum insurred increased from $72K to $77k (long story) and premium is less than last year - go figure!!

Moral of the story - Challenging a renewal can yield 12% saving!

Hope this inspires someone to pick up the phone :-)
