Well, as I explained above, even the guy I spoke to at the Prudential admitted that companies with 'big names' charge more, and gave an example of branded shoes being more expensive.

I don't agree with his view. Asda and Tesco are 'big names' in the grocery world but they don't charge more. Some of the big insurance names can be the cheapest.

When he says branded shoes, does he mean designer brands? Fortunately we don't have designer insurance companies.

I am VERY keen to get cheaper deals, and this 'moneysavingexpert' website (etc) is surely all about this desire to get the best deals and save money.

Absolutely. Just bear in mind the consequences if you mess it up.

Thanks for your helpful reply. it is most welcome!
What I am choosing to do presently is, yesterday I contacted the insurance company, Prudential, my mum has 'blanket cover' for contents of home. They are sending me info about mum's policy in 7 working days from yesterday. So maybe it is better to see what is covered so then I can try proper comparisons?
I am a very careful person--try to be--with things I buy etc. HATE getting ripped off. So this is why I am very keep to learn best way to get good deal on this.

Yes thats what you need to do.

I bet you can get the policy cheaper, just need to shop around.

Good luck with it.
