Ipod Insurance?

JaRocks28

Is there such thing as ipod insurance? (except the extended warranty from apple, as this doesnt cover for accidental damage).
I have found this on Comparethemarket.com
http://www.gadget-cover.com
but the site looks too dodgey for my liking, and the reason i didnt take it out when purchasing the product was because they wanted to charge me £150...

I have a Ipod Touch 2G 16GB - So face value about £220...

Any ideas?

Oh, and I don't own my own property so contents insurance isnt an option. I wanted my own insurance policy on it.

How am i meant to know..

btw, you don't need to own your property to get insurance. You can get single room insurance that includes specific items on it (e.g. ipod) - i think Endsleigh do student insurance that might cover it - http://www.endsleigh.co.uk/student-possessions.html

But i wouldnt be elegible for student insurance, as im not a student.

Thanks for your help though, i think i will just not bother, and if it breaks for whatever reason just buy a new one!!

it's a policy for non-home owners insuring their contents - i had it when i'd finished uni and was flat sharing for a few years.

Contact them.. but a new ipod is only £160 of so.. so just put £10 a month in the bank and you'll have your own policy.

Why bother an iPod only costs £150ish. Good excuse to to the new model.
