Based on recent reports, you'd be better off cancelling and taking out a new policy with M&S online, as their renewal quotes seem to be a bit cheeky.

Not sure, but rememeber to go and do a new quote online as it'll probably be cheaper than doing the renewal.

ETA d'oh, too slow!

I think the premium is the one that covers it away from home as well, so that's the better cover.

M&S quoted me £650 to renew, fresh quote came out at £450, swinton did it for £268. Go figure.

Same thing here re new quote vs renewal - might be worth checking out the Waitrose equivalent, it's not quite as comprehensive (I forget the differences) but was cheaper, with similar bike cover I think - best to check the away-from-home cover tho'.

Did Swinton iclude bike insurance as that's why most guys who use M&S buy it, add on bike insurance is very expensive.

anyone know if an iPhone is coverd under M&S?

So you just do the policy online or get a quote and phone them?

This was yesterday's job for me . . .
