Contents insurance ‘is a must this Valentine’s Day’

Posted 2008-02-7

Anyone splashing out on expensive gifts for a loved one around Valentine’s Day should check their home insurance, one provider says.
Direct Line said jewellery is one of the most popular presents among UK lovebirds, who were predicted to spend about £467m on glittering gifts for the big day.
Andrew Lowe, head of the firm’s home insurance, said: “Insurance is probably the last thing on most people’s minds when they are showering their loved ones with gifts on Valentine’s Day.”Having the right cover in place could prevent heartache if the unthinkable happens and that precious item is lost or stolen.”

Direct Line also suggests people keep proof of purchase and photographs of their new items.
