Don't need building cover, just contents, any good deals? Needs to cover bikes up to 3.5k

Cheers Mate, Pedal Cover sounds ok but their website won't accept my quote details "invalid date format", might try ringing later

I'm just about to renew with www.quotemehappy.com. I'm not sure what the total cover or individual bike limit is but I added a £1k and £1.5k bike to my policy and they came out the cheapest, so might be worth checking them? That was for buildings and contents.

I'm just about to go with more than, 75k ccontents cover as standard - most of the quotes I got were for 16-20k contents which was no where near enough should the worst happen and the house be gutted in a fire then got very expensive when you added extra cost.
I've covered two bikes in that as declared items, one at 1.5 one at 5k, no additional charge for cover in the home and new for old on my (now three year old) nicolai which specialist insurance would now only pay market rate for, which frankly isn't much on a 26" straight steerer qr bike. Cost me an extra 25 ish a year for covering them in the garden. Only covered at home on that though, they do offer additional bike cover too but only covers up to 2.5k max, which I think worked out at 80 some a year.

I've had a quote for contents only, all bikes under 3.5k, £220. Half of that is the bike cover. Not too sure how that fares.

Be careful of under insuring on contents.

The AA told me they wouldn't pay out if your under insured whilst they tried to sell me a policy that meant I was under insured!!!

The max is more than 2.5k. Just insured my buildings, contents and SC Blur TR for more than that with MoreThan including cover away from home for £220. Spoke to them on the phone though to get it sorted.
