Insurance for high cost laptop

Brit_Chick

I've recently purchased a macbook pro laptop for £4,000 and am having difficulty getting insurance for it as all the gadget/laptop insurance companies only seem to insure up to £2,000 max.

I live with my parents and they have their own home and contents insurance. For various reasons I'd rather not add my macbook onto their home insurance especially since I will be moving soon anyway.

Does anyone know of any companies that do provide the kind of insurace I am after?

One I know (not a recommendation) is simplesurance who will cover laptops up to £5000

According to their website, they only insure laptops up to 2k as well.

Contents insurance might be the way to go.
Initially parents and then your own.

Looks like my post (#2 above) got auto spelling corrected!

As mentioned in #2 that company does offer up to £5000 cover
