They need to cover their fixed costs with the people paying book rates, but then they're able to price on a marginal basis, if pushed.
 
I use my real email address but a fake phone number (that doesn't work on Outsurance as mentioned earlier) because it's handy to get email notifications of quotes and it's easy to unsubscribe when done shopping around.
 
I also use an email address just for insurance quotes insurancequotes@XXX which means I can block delete when I renew.

Could be useful when using a Gmail address where dots in the name are not significant.

Dots don't matter in Gmail addresses - Gmail Help

If someone accidentally adds dots to your address when emailing you, you'll still get that email. For example, if your email is johnsmith@gmail.com, you own all dotted versions of your address: jo

It took me several weeks of their annoying ads on TV to realise that the "paper guy" is meant to be their competitors and not themselves...

I asked her to delete my details from their system and not to contact me again. She said she'd ring back with an explanation for how they'd messed up on their side. I asked if the line was bad as she didn't seem to have heard my instructions about deleting my details and not contacting me again and hung up.

That was on 02/07/2025, the bit in quotes below arrived this morning 14/072025, almost two weeks later.

Why and how? The line was obviously very bad that day and/or my instructions were unclear and took that length of time to sink in and action.

Beware.
