Agreed. I'd rather he (and anyone else!) posted on here with their experience that others can benefit from.
Others may also be able to save 50% on their insurance if they have been shafted for years.

Exactly the point - a 50% insurance saving is worth the same to businesses big or small.

Breaking news, F and M ripped @Clive off for 6k last year!!
I had 3 quotes last year for insurance.
I wont name and shame the more expensive one but NFUM were the cheapest by a long long way. In fact HALF what another mutual were and cheaper than the broker.
Always shop around for any product. If you local merchant/broker/firm is a little bit more expensive, so what your putting money back into YOUR community not some place 100's of miles away in a town or city.
We want consumers to buy local let's do a little ourselves if its sensible to.

Our businesses loyalty to the NFUM means with compatible quotes they give us the best deal of the 3.
Edit- other halfs cousin works for a large broker. She always says they struggle to beat the NFU when they are up against them in a quote.

Had a mate who would shop around and negotiate a price for a box of wood screws. Never overpaid for anything but never got anything done either. I tend to value my time a bit higher than that.
Insurance hasn’t moved in ten years - I get a second price to benchmark against and unless the difference is enough to compensate for the hassle factor of moving, it stays put. Thankfully, it hasn’t been as I really don’t want to put in the effort.

That’s true, but your new quote is still way more than I pay - because my farm (and lifestyle) is far smaller and simpler than yours. For me, a 50% reduction would be worthy of thought, but possibly still not worth my time.
