Student Guarantor insurance

Hi, last year I signed a Tenancy agreement as Guarantor for my son and the agreement is Joint and Several, which means that I may be requested to cover rent arrears for one of the other Tenant's. The agreement starts 1st July 2017. At the time, I fully understood what I was signing and as the rental company had included details of insurance to protect me from such events I was not concerned. However, I am now in the process of looking at the cover to protect us and now wonder if the company are okay to use. They are called Only my share, which i gather are a fairly new Company. Please has anyone already used them or in the same position? If so, please can I ask what you have done.
Many thanks.

    They seem very small but the broker has been incorporated since 2009. The only insurer I can see mentioned are Brit who are pretty big.
