I recently purchased a Nissan X-Trail. Before taking the train to pick up the car, I went online to take up the quote that I had received from Halifax insurance the previous day. I retrieved the quote and it still had the same price, but when I got to the payment page the price had gone up by nearly £70. I went through the procedure again to ensure that I had not made any mistake but the same thing happened. I queried this with Halifax and they told me that it was because I had made a change to my application, namely specifying that day as the date of purchasing the car when the quote was given on the assumption that I already owned the car. Is this fair? I paid anyway because I had a train to catch and didn't have time to go through it all again.
