uSwitch responds to the Financial Services Authority's (FSA) review of insurance comparison websites

Ashton Berkhauer, Insurance Expert at uSwitch.com, the independent online price comparison and switching service,

responds to the Financial Services Authority's (FSA) review of insurance comparison websites.

"Price comparison sites play an important role in helping consumers navigate a crowded marketplace, make complex decisions and identify the best product for their needs whilst saving money.

We welcome any initiative that will result in increased consumer confidence and are happy to be actively involved in any consultations on this issue.

"uSwitch.com's car insurance comparison service asks for a comprehensive set of consumer details from the offset.

This enables us to offer one of the most accurate set of results available in the insurance comparison industry and provides consumers with actual quotes, not estimates.

The site also enables consumers to select specific policy features such as cover for driving abroad, child seat cover and legal cover.

This ensures that they understand the differences between each policy and that they do not pay for extra features that will not be used." For more information visit www.uSwitch.com or call 0800 093 06 07.
