We have been with NFU for many years for contents insurance. Our home was flooded due to a burst pipe and it was a no quibble claim to the tune of in excess of £5000. I would recommend them.

LV, been with them for years, also made a flood claim (from the River Lea), no quibble. It was much more difficult persuading the council that a flood bank was needed.

LV is no longer owned by Liverpool Victoria it is part of the Allianz group who provide ins looking at the reviews give food for thought!

Ive just changed to Policy Expert.
Much cheaper than previous insurer.
I've no experience of making a claim, but their reviews are very good.

Thought I would get a quote from the above insurer as my renewal notice has just come in and inflated because I had a claim last year

Ageas Insurance    was £ 279.64 risen to £410.84for 2022

PolicyExpert      £1737.47 for 2022

Think I will stay with Ageas

Interesting. After years of swapping car insurance to get the cheapest (I know this is a household insurance post, bear with me), I noticed that the policies were all underwritten by the same insurance - that was Aegas (acting as RIAS). Brokers (like John Lewis Partnership) will add their own profit, I don’t know if Policy Expert is a broker or if it sells their own insurance policies.
OH insured his car with John Lewis & they wouldn’t budge on the price. RIAS or Aegas was almost half, which fits the previous post.
I rather not advise on household insurance because there are so many variables - flood risk, number of rooms, terraced or detached etc. Ours is also for rebuilding as well as the contents - some people have separate insurance for these.,

2024 = 20 sites / 41 nights. 2023 = 9/23. 2022 = 13/35. 2021 = 11/29. 2020 = 4/20. 2019 = 13/35. 2018 = 20/33. 2017 = 10/22. 2016 = 19/33. 2015 = 15 sites / 27 nights. Didn't count 1976 to 2014.
