Comparison website

Do you use comparison website to compare car insurance, best saving rate, energy or cheap mortgage rate? If yes then beware of the information you enter on these websites. Some of the small players can use your information to do a credit check even without your consent. Please note that these website are not regulated.

I also use these price comparison website but I tend to stick with market leaders and give fictitious information just to get an idea on the quote. Then I contact the insurance company or bank to get the deal.

Please note the business model these website use is that they get paid by the providers and not by the consumers.
