General
comments
On
the Post Office site all the quote entry fields are
on the one page, you get to select which policy type
you want via radio buttons as the first question. Makes
for a very quick premium generation.
Once on the premium page the premium is actually very
difficult to see - it is the same colour and font size
as all the other text hidden several rows down.
You
can add extra covers on the premium page but you must
scroll down and click the recalculate button (a family,
European cover policy goes from £80 to £242
if you click all the options)
All
the exclusions are shown after the premium which means
that a lot of people end up wasting their time.
