Did you use any particular plea/argument/I'm leaving you? I can't really say I'm off, thanks, bye as they are cheapest. Still to check the comparison sites but they've never been cheaper than checking direct, or with those companies not on the comparison sites. When I phoned them I played the daft laddie (as we say up here) and queried if someone had made a false claim on my policy because my renewal had gone up by about the same amount as your one. The person I was speaking with checked my details and said no they hadn't and Immediately offered to renew it for about 10% more than last year. I took up their offer because I like Direct Line for a lot of reasons and I will also get a part refund because my mileage is less than what I declared when first taking out the policy although I think they are stopping this unless you are already signed up for it. The strange thing is that last years renewal was less than the year before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's interesting because I have always found the opposite. And last year I got 12 x £7 car washes free in addition to a cheaper price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And limited ETIS during decommissioning. Makes double checking before offering forum advice more difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Guess we are stuck with just http://www.catcar.info/ford/?lang=en for the moment. Let's hope that normal service will soon be restored. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unofix Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Having problems with the Ford Owners Club website again 😠 Started yesterday but today it's happening very frequently. If I view a page and then click 'back' or try to click on the 'Like' icon then the site crashes and I get the 400 error. This is not happening on other websites I visit so seems to be a problem with FOC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firefox has apparently automatically updated itself yesterday at some time to the new version. Which would seem to match with when problems began.

I know FOC don't like to think it is anything to do with their website but I've been having serious problems all day, but only with the FOC site. Even spent time on amazon, Halfords and eBay doing lots of searches and using the back page, and not once did it crash. Came back to FOC and within two minutes the site crashed. It has to be a website coding issue but unless enough complain it is likely never to get fixed 🙁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From memory the last time this happened we were about the only two people who posted about it although it probably happened to a lot of other people. The only thing different about my computer is that for the last week I have been getting nagged that I'm not signed in to One Drive. I always thought that was the case but I was not nagged about it before. The problem that we are having only started this morning. I'll clear my Cache and Cookies and see what happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp999 Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 It’s always tricky to fault find something intermittent that’s only happening to a few people. I’m using Firefox on Windows without a problem. I don’t know if @Stevecan get any clues from the server error logs for your failed requests.

plasticpat Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 I don't like it when I buy something online and the carrier firm (FASTWAY on this occasion) thinks it's ok to dump the parcel (a footie shirt) at the front door when he/she could easily have put it through the letterbox . 2 emails to the seller to give out about their carrier's second rate service have gone unanswered and not so surprisingly the carrier hasn't answered up for their crap service either . P.S. Belated Happy Birthday to Iantt and anyone else having a birthday ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
