On the basis of wholesale markets declining board are confident of delivering expectations for the year, how long before the profit warning.

No, car insurance is a flat fee, as is home insurance, bike and pet insurance, energy and credit cards.

[plat hunter] 26/9/2021 12:52

They market car insurance for free then?

[disc0dave45] 26/9/2021 12:45

They only get commission for travel insurance, breakdown, life insurance and loans.

Less choice always means higher prices. Higher prices, equals higher commissions.

[eezymunny] 25/9/2021 14:37

Less insurance comparisons coming too, with new rules about charging same to new and old customers?

[plat hunter] 24/9/2021 16:11

On the flip side, there's 1.5 million new energy quotes up for grabs

It's a growth market Suet, no new cars, no growth.

[suetballs] 24/9/2021 11:45

But peeps still have their old cars which they have to insure!

Fewer car sales, fewer quotes

Plat can you tell my why chips affect MONY?

[plat hunter] 24/9/2021 10:06

Car insurance is undoubtedly the biggest earner. MONY is a victim of the chip shortage it seems

If it dips below 200p I may buy back in. I offloaded at about 250 last week. Need to scrutine the accounts as it's a 1B plus valued company...

Travel is improving too, surely an important part of revenue.

[boonkoh] 23/9/2021 21:32

Thought insurance was the biggest revenue segment, not energy?

[suetballs] 20/9/2021 15:53

The big drop is not surprising then - nothing to compare.

Suppliers all pulling deals from pcws as prices settle at the price cap.

[suetballs] 20/9/2021 10:28

Small gas suppliers going bust having an impact here?

the market likes the results and so do I. Hardly any recovery from last year's lows so about time.

[suetballs] 28/5/2021 12:25

Good counter arguments.

I don't see it that way. IMHO I think what it will mean is that insurance companies can no longer profit from luring new customers in and then hiking the price in return for loyalty. The ins companies will adjust their marketing as they will still be just as keen to attract new customers if not more so (as the chances of retention may increase). This means they will cyclically take it in turns to be the "market leader" (to new and old customers) for a year or two followed by many more years of being more expensive than others. This is what the gas and elec companies do. It might mean with all the publicity that the companies will put out that some customers are falsely reassured that they don't need to shop around but most are not stupid. Shopping around is here to stay and with autoswitching products on the price comparison sites will continue to increase.

[robertball] 28/5/2021 08:06

Isn't the FCA announcement re: auto renewals this morning a nail in the coffin?

Nice dividend payment banked and share price holding firm. I could see this being 20% higher by the time it goes ex dividend for the next final payment. 25% in 12 months would be good.

[w1lbur01] 20/4/2021 12:06

Brought a few today

[hardupfedup] 08/4/2021 08:09
