Just spent a fair bit tootling round Spain and saw this in the square in Lloret de Mar. A reminder of days gone by eh!

You were told wrong then, it's covered in the Goods In Transit cover they give you which is up to £5k. Covers items being sent in connection with your business. I had same as Kipax, sending stuff to Canon and courier wanted £80 to insure it as was worth £3k. Rang Cliik and spoke to Steve and he...

Having checked out their website I see they have excesses of 5% of amount claimed for kit stolen or accidental loss and 10% if stolen from a vehicle! So have £10k worth of kit stolen from your car and your excess is £1000, and if you managed to have same amount stolen while out on location or...

And also now a very large amount in debt so don't expect your renewal premium to be cheap!

As Munch says f2.8, they probably won't tell you anything other than your policy is fine and there's no need to worry. Unfortunately, if the you know what does hit the fan that's when you'll be told that your insurance is no longer valid and you'll then have to scramble around to get insurance...

Towergate are nearly £1bn in debt. Here's the blurb from one of the 'High Street' magazines........ 20.11.14 Towergate Insurance Difficulty May Spell Trouble for Photographers Following the announcement of net debts of £977.5m, issues of cash flow, a downgraded rating, and possible sale of the...

Do you work for an insurance company Tom? Just wonder what you're going to do with the information as I have a few ideas but I'd like to know where they're going if I do pass them to you? Nothing grand but if a policy suddenly announces it has my ideas implemented into it I'd be hopeful of...

See they say it's only for amateur/semi pro i.e. earning less than 50% of income so fits a lot of people. Bit concerned about their excesses though http://www.eversure.com/camera/benefits.aspx#tab1 According to that, if you have/are lucky enough to own say £10k and that gets stolen, if its...

Try Cliik as they cover everything you use to create the images (their words not mine) so assume props is covered in that. If you have an array of costumes that if all were destroyed/stolen could cost to replace I'm assuming they'd be covered. I would suggest telling them when enquiring...

Cost & time away. Hence why I'd decided to do only one a year and alternate. Cheers Mike, agree with what you've said just wondering how much of a consumer show the NEC one will be. Looked at the website and seems a fair few of the main guys from Focus are their. May stick with my original plan...

Decided that as I did Focus last year I was going to do SWPP this year but as Focus is no longer and has been replaced by The Photography Show am showing signs of confusion as to which to go to! My reasoning was to alternate between them that way could see differences and so felt it was money...

Cheers Stewart! really should pay attention to my alerts too!!

Stewart, this may be a piece of string question, but as an experienced retailer at shows (I've seen you at many SWPP's & Focus shows so assume you do the majority) would you say that the attendees were more the working photographer as opposed to the amateur/hobbyists? Just wondering what you...

Are you wanting just Public Liability or do you want your kit insuring to? I'm with Kelack in recommending Cliik and Steve does provide a great service, however, I don't think they do Public Liability on its own. If you're looking for cover on your kit as well as PL, then call Steve. If...

LOL! Sorry, just re-read this. So at best they're new, which at best isn't great?:thinking: Know what you mean, just made me chuckle when I re-read it:lol:
