Which holiday let insurer do you UK hosts use?

I got a quote from my current insurer today which has jumped up quite a bit from last year, and was wondering what other insurers are there apart from i4me? There doesn't seem to be many who provides cover for holiday lets. Who do you guys use? Any other insurers and info would be greatly appreciated.

Hello @Bobbiecool0 

Have you tried looking through the search box here in CC using related keywords?

 

There should be some useful information tucked away there from others in the UK.

When you see someone's name who is based in the UK maybe look up to see if they have discussed it in the past.

 

Alternatively 

@Huma0 @Helen3 @Helen350 @Mike-And-Helen0 @Yadira22 

@Ian-And-Anne-Marie0and others who are based in the UK who are regulars here in CC may be able to assist you.

 

All the best

@Helen427 - Huma0, Helen3 & myself all home share, so our situations are different from hosts who let an entire place. 🙂

 @Bobbiecool0  there are about ten insurance providers that do insurance for STR that I have come across.

 

If you do a Google search they should come up and you can find one that suits your type of listing or contact an insurance broker and ask them to look for you.

 

By the way if you are a host...why do you have a blank profile with no listing?

I originally joined using my google account thinking I can add my listing profile, which unfortunately  I can’t. Then I realised I just go to community via the app and it logs me in as my Airbnb profile, Robbie54, but as from yesterday the community link has disappeared from the app on my tablet, so I cannot log in on my tablet, only on my phone.. Very odd it’s missing.

We use JL Morris to broker our insurance. They seem to get good prices. You can contact them via ** as they are working from home at present

Please Avoid I4me!  I have had a horrendous time This year dealing with them for a claim. Rude, unhelpful staff and non existent communication.
