Home insurance - what are people paying on average?

[ArthurMcB]

Good luck if you ever need to claim!

Why you say this? Kenko no good re claims? Is this just anecdotally?

Just one experience I had a number of years back. They employed tactics of stonewalling and frustration.

Im just putting this in in case anyone finds it useful in the future....
4 bed semi detached new build in Dublin
750k rebuild
200k Contents
75k specified items (covered worldwide) mostly jewellery and watches

1.8k.....

Its the specified items that are the issue but if you dont get a specialist policy insurers are asking for annual valuations for everything which isnt feasible.

Hello, could you please clarify about the specified items ? Do you have a particular policy for these items or are they included with the rebuild and contents and with the same company. I also don't want to get annual valuations but also want them covered worldwide ? Many thanks
