I prefer to save myself money by checking the "source data" periodically. I order my annual reports at a 4 month rotation.

If I received a renewal notice for an insurance policy that seemed to have increased too much, I would investigate and go from there. But I'm not giving a (in my opinion) shady organization money to check a silly, arbitrary score as a matter of course.

One of the nice things about achieving a certain amount of financial security is that I can go "off the grid" if I choose to.
