Here’s a quick win that might save you a few hundred bucks.👾😎🤟🏏
I’ve been with my current insurer for my car’s comprehensive insurance for a while now — solid cover, no complaints — but when my renewal came in at $44 per fortnight, I wasn’t impressed.
Cost of living is high enough. I’m not here to pay the "lazy tax" just because I didn’t ask.
What I Did:
I jumped online.
Checked competitor prices.
Had cheaper options lined up.
Then I called my insurer.
"Look — I’ve been a loyal customer, but I’m seeing better deals elsewhere. If you can’t sharpen this price, I’m ready to move my business."
The Result:
They didn’t even argue.🤟
Dropped it from $44 per fortnight to $36 per fortnight on the spot.
Same comprehensive cover.
That’s $208 a year saved — no downgrade, no gimmicks — just for being willing to walk.🤪
The Lesson:
Loyalty is only worth something if you know your worth.
These companies will absolutely let you overpay if you never question it.
Fiscal Phoenix Rule:
"Be loyal — but never blind."🔥🔥🔥
Review. Compare. Be ready to walk.
That’s how you stay in control of your money.
