> Happy new year to all,
Ditto......
Anna was interested to know what the rest of us do regards
insurance.......here goes!!
> do you include the cost of insurance? ......I include an approximate
price per year for computer insurance which is separate from possessions
although Endsleigh will only insure computers if they also insure the
possessions.
> recommend an insurance company?.........I include samples with the report
and give an information sheet that suggests they insure their equipment the
minute it arrives. During the assessment I try to find out if they have a
home/flat/Halls of Residence insurance or whether they can ask for cover
via family. This is obviously asked in a careful way as there is no doubt
that if parents can have the equipment itemised under the home policy it
can be added for as little as twenty pounds. (My daughter's each have 486s
and are in London and Glasgow...both insured under our home policy)
> or leave it to the student?....always depends on the situation.
I hope this helps although, I must add that the advice may be different
for each case.
Best wishes
