Bass Of Spades Posted November 8 Share Posted November 8 Anyone got any recommendations for good insurance peeps to cover your gear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosie C Posted November 8 Share Posted November 8 I've been with Allianz until recently - they seem good as far as their customer service and price goes, but I've not had to claim from them yet. But, they've just sold their musician's policies to another company but are still underwriting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacDaddy Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 Free with Musicians Union membership. Cover is for a lot of the things other Insurers don't cover. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not for a massive amount. I suspect that they typical Basschat member would still need to take out extra insurance just cover the equipment they use at gigs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHM Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 My band is with Allianz, who seem very good and personable on the phone, about £75 for a year's PLI. But haven't had to make a claim.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHM Posted November 20 Share Posted November 20 (edited) It doesn't include gear insurance, it is just PLI. We recently changed a band member in the line up and Allianz didn't charge for updating our policy, which must be a first for an insurance company.

michael2003x Posted November 21 Share Posted November 21 I have Allianz home-only music insurance for approx 30ks worth of equipment & the premium is tiny. Very easy to add or remove items and a nice itemised statement comes every 3 months. They have great reviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can do - my policy has both PLI and gear insurance. I'm paying about £75 a year as well, but we only do a handful of gigs each year, and they ask how many gigs you do. I have two accordions, a mandocello and a PA covered - total value about £4k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_bass5 Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 I need to get some insurance and PLI sorted out for some gigs this month. Can i ask if any of the above cover laptops as well? I tried Newmoon but couldn't see the option. I know Musicguard does it, and will probably go with them, but wanted to shop around if possible first.
