    My contents' total value is around £1000-£1500 so I don't need cover for £5000. I can't find tenants' contents insurance under this though. I am hoping I'll need to pay less for lower cover.
    Why does it matter? I pay £9 a month for full contents insurance including £25,000 possessions, £3,000 contents away from the home, reduced excess to £100 with no compulsory, and accidental damage cover. 

    What are your quotes coming out at? Comparethemarket found me the cheapest. 
  • Which insurance company are you with and what's the policy name?
  • I used GoCompare and it found Swinton to be the cheapest at £108.35 per year (extra if you pay per month).
