All so familiar unfortunately Ian.
Similar to the companies who offer "cheap" asset finance, yet when the client comes to sign the contract, there are a few hidden extras such as interim rentals, payments in advance, balloon rentals, high document fees etc. |

Some of these big comparison sites, who have access to all the lenders, will display at the top their "partner" companies, who are not the best or the cheapest (a bit like google adds, but without making the customer aware)
Most of the others are part of lead generation and as soon as you have filled in your details, they will be sold off to the highest bidder, (sometimes more than once) and you will spend next month answering calls from brokers ! Mick |

If I want online prices for anything I always give a fictitious address and telephone number so that I get just the online quotes that I wanted but without the hassle afterwards.
The car insurance price quote sites are amongst the worst as the telephone will start ringing 10 minutes after you've submitted the request for an online quote. factoring, invoice discounting, asset finance and trade finance specialist broker.

It seems like this market isn't as mature as shopping sites for household items and electronics. I can usually get good deals on those items when comparison shopping online. Maybe it just takes more time for the business to become legitimate.

As some have mentioned many of these comparison sites are feeders for lead sellers, several of the larger sites have lead sales companies that are part of the same company. I have several sites that supply our own leads and i get people telling me regurlarly that they have been bombarded with calls since they put their details onto a comparison site.
