FWIW I'm the same age as you, but paying 700 on the CSL with AXA too.
No commuting on my policy though, which might make a difference
No I called in Jeff. I always call in each year, they're only up the road from where I work
so it's handy enough. I'd only been in a few weeks earlier renewing the classic policy and
managed to get a few quid off that, so I was a little surprised that they wouldn't budge
a euro when it came time to renew the main policy.
They gave me the life time protected no claims bonus there earlier in the year for being
being a long term customer I think, and I'm guessing they were banking on the fact I'd
value that and wouldn't be in a hurry to head elsewhere.
Hopefully they never twig the rest of the industry view me as a lepper.

xworks - did you try AIG?
I didn't I'm afraid, my inner genius was starting to see a pattern emerging so
I said I'd give up before I started verbally abusing some
poor mimimum wage phone operator.
