Theft Cover For 3 Yr Old Laptop For Trip To EU

SuperHan

Had a quick look at Insurance2Go - it's £6 ish a month for a £900 laptop. It also says that there's no contract so you can cancel at any time. If it's stolen then they will either replace with the same make/model or equivalent spec if no longer available. It also covers accidental damage, fire damage, family cover etc.

Thanks so much for taking the time to post, SuperHan! I really appreciate it. That's just what I'm looking for. :0)

I'm off to check it out. :0)

All the best

Insureandgo is not that great a cover.

Do you have the original purchase receipt ? Without this they won't pay out.

Also bear in mind their replacement cover would be as per the "New for Old" I explained earlier so a 3 year older computer would probably be replaced with a model valued at between £250 and £450 depending on the specs of your lap top.

Read and understand the policy wording before you commit so you understand what your covered for and what your not

Thanks Dacouch.

I do have the receipt, yes. And thanks for the heads up - it looks like I have some bedtime reading to do...

All the best

On a slightly different tack, I would strongly recommend backing up your data before heading off, as it would be a shame if something untoward did happen to it.

You could get a USB hard disk and copy your files to it.
