Allianz Musical Insurance

Had quotes from three other places before picking these for my bass and pedal board, and they came out in the middle on price but the cover was clearer. Took about fifteen minutes online to get it sorted, which was fine.

Needed cover because I finally bought a second hand drum kit and my flat mates kept saying I should sort insurance before it gets nicked. Signing up was pretty simple, answered a few questions about where I keep it and paid monthly. Found the wording a bit confusing at first but it got sorted once I rang them.

Verdict is that it's good cover for my harp, and the policy covers it at home and when I take it out to play. The renewal took a bit of chasing because the reminder email went to my old address, but once I got through to someone it was sorted. Price is fair for the cover.

Compared to what I was paying with my previous insurer this was a fair bit cheaper for the same cover on my cello and the amp, so that was the main reason I switched. The policy documents are clear enough and the cover limits are sensible. Took about twenty minutes to sort out online, though the renewal reminder came through a few weeks after I'd already asked for a quote.

I needed it because I'd just bought a keyboard on finance and the shop wanted proof of insurance before handing it over. Getting the policy in place was quick and the documents came straight through, so I could collect it that same afternoon. Cover feels reasonable for the money and I'd go with them again without hesitating.

Compared with the big comparison sites this came out cheaper for my flute and my grandfather's clarinet, and the excess was lower too. I looked at four quotes before picking it. Claims are handled by a real person, which I valued when I had a small issue with a dropped case, and it was sorted in under a week.

Bought a policy covering my violin and bow for gigs and rehearsals. The cover kicks in straight away and the certificate landed in my inbox within minutes of paying. Good value for what I get and I'd happily renew next year without a second thought, it's exactly what I needed for the orchestra.

got the policy for my acoustic guitar cos I take it to uni and to gigs. The quote was ok but the price went up a bit when I changed my postcode, which was annoying. Once I paid it all worked fine, and I got my certificate by email. The customer service chat took ages to answer though, like two days.

They are the best option I've found for insuring instruments held by our community group. The policy covers loss, theft and accidental damage at the hall and in transit, and the renewals have always been on time. Dealing with them has been straightforward every year.

Looked at what I'd been paying and this worked out a lot less for the same cover on my cello and my keyboard, which is exactly what I wanted. The policy documents came through straight away by email and the cover started the same day I signed up. Cheap enough that I stopped worrying about it getting nicked from the car.
