Paintball And Car Insurance - UK

[Tomc NSPL]

A couple years back i played golf 24/7 before i even knew what tourny paintball was. Had all the gear etc which totaled to about £2000. (Thats alot of dosh)
Some of the members up there where the same with all there top class gear, and then i heard that one of them had left all his gear in the car overnight, and that it had been stolen. Once all the insurance forms came through the insurance company refusesd to pay out for all the goods in the back of his car.

So i was wondering is there any type of speacial insurance i can get for my gat and gear (like u can in golf)

Any help will be much appreciated

Mine is listed on my home contents insurance, and as such it's covered as long as it's in the boot rather on the back seat. In fact, many insurance companies cover most lower value items (e.g. under £1k) as long as they aren't on display and are secured e.g. in the boot or a locked glove compartment. Check the terms of both your home contens and car insurance as one/both of them may well cover your kit, but in all cases it won't cover stuff left on display in the main body of the car.

home insurance is good.just stipulate what you have
