Or is it a blunt stick, I'm never sure and a little searching suggests little to choose between the two versions? Anyway, had a letter from AXA today with the promise of a refund on my 2022/23 premium. The logic is hard to follow but the main point seems to be that because of COVID they paid out less in claims than exacted so we the customers were overcharged.
