It's all a bit similar to Protect Your Bubble, really, so I'd recommend writing to both. :)
Insurance2go are an insurance company in the UK that are really rather bargainous. But upon sign-up, we are presented with that common genderqueer issue, the required gendered title.
I'm just going to sneakily use the same letter I sent to Protect Your Bubble, but since me and genderbenderagenda have already given them quite a lot of info, if you're feeling lazy even a short email will help:
As a genderqueer person/ally, I am far more likely to sign up with and recommend a company or organisation that recognises and accepts genderqueer people by offering a gender-neutral title on their sign-up form. Please consider updating your system a little bit; it would make us very happy! Thank you. :)

I really like how user-friendly your website is. I also like how your gadget insurance is cheaper than my mobile phone provider quoted when I first got my mobile phone. However, when I looked at your registration form, it became apparent that I wouldn’t be able to sign up, and it’s quite a small detail.
I am genderqueer, sometimes also known as nonbinary, which means that I identify as neither male nor female. As you can imagine, this is something that not many people are aware of, though the NHS have been dealing with such cases as part of their transgender workload for at least 10 years that I know of. There are about 200,000 of us in the UK, and we have a growing recognition among many high-profile organisations; the Identity and Passport Service (IPS) and the DVLA both happily accept gender-neutral titles Mx (pronounced Mix) and Misc (pronounced Misk), and as a result of these official record-holding bodies accepting us, the UK Deed Poll Service also offer Mx as a title option on their deed poll documents.
As someone who is neither male nor female, I am unable to select a gendered title such as Mr or Ms. As someone who is unqualified, I am unable to select your only gender-neutral title, Dr.
As titles are not legally binding, would you be at all interested in changing your form slightly, either so that titles are not required for sign-up or so that there is a gender neutral title such as Mx or Misc available for a potential 200,000 customers in the UK?
Thank you so much for your time,
PS: I have attached and pasted below a document I give to companies and organisations who are interested in the issues surrounding our gender, in case you’d like to know more.
