A multi line discount or at the very least a loyalty discount pleeeease

Multi line discounts:
You can't compare everything service related to the States but there are some lessons to be learned.  When I lived in NYC I used State Farm Insurance.  They covered my life, motorcycle, car, home and 2nd home insurance.  The more business I brought them the deeper the discount they could offer me.  Here in the UK I have four utility accounts.  Two electric and two gas.  Each has a separate contract with a different renewal date and the supplier varies from year to year.  When I explain the concept to the companies giving me the quotes each year they tell me it's not possible.
Really?
Loyalty discounts:
I used to have auto insurance through AA.  When the renewal letter came through the post the new premium was nearly double the year before.  Luckily NFU could give me a competitive rate.  Am I to presume AA was hoping I would forget to shop around and make a quick buck?   The government even stresses the importance of shopping for competitive rates as a means of savings for the taxpayer.
Thank you very little
