So much for customer loyalty!
Apologies for being off topic...but I just got my auto email with my renewal quote for 590 (including 10% discount for online renewal)
Went on to the site and entered details verbatim and quote is 420....

In my experience, you frequently don't need to move: just ring up your insurance company and ask for a better price (ideally after you get a quote from someplace else that's cheaper). They will frequently match it. It's always amazed me you can save a couple of hundred with one phone call, without having to move insurer.
That's exactly what happened to me with AXA. The renewal quote has been pretty much the same the last few years and very similar to online quotes with other providers.I don't know about rewarding loyalty, but my quote this year to renew with the AA was pretty much as good as I found anywhere. There was no messing around with getting a better price if I put in a new application online. Calling in still got me a small reduction.
