Buying an engagement ring can be intimidating. For many people, it’s one of the most expensive purchases they’ve made so far. But the financial cost of jewellery is only one reason an engagement ring needs extra care; it’s also a symbol of your love, a family heirloom and something to be cherished by future generations.
This guide to engagement ring insurance will help you to understand what is covered, how it differs from Home and Contents and travel policies, and what you should look for in an insurance provider.
Your engagement ring is one of a kind testament to the love you and your partner share, which is why it’s so important to protect it with specialised jewellery insurance.
What does jewellery insurance cover?
As you can see, quality engagement ring insurance will cover a variety of unexpected circumstances, helping you to feel confident about enjoying the ring everywhere you go, even overseas!
At Q Report, all we insure is jewellery, so our coverage is excellent and suited to our clients’ exact needs. Home and Contents policies and travel insurance cover a wide range of items and situations, so when it comes to your specific pieces of jewellery, coverage may be lacking.
For instance, your Home and Contents policy may not protect certain expensive pieces of jewellery unless you specify individual cover for them and pay an additional premium. Even then, the pieces may only be covered when they’re in your home.
Likewise, with a travel insurance policy, jewellery under a certain value may be covered but this protection might be limited to specific situations and subject to other exclusions.
On the other hand, specialised engagement ring insurance like Q Report is tailor-made to provide comprehensive protection for your jewellery - without the hidden fees and the lengthy exclusions.
When you’re looking for engagement ring insurance, it’s important that you choose a high-quality provider that can guarantee protection if the unexpected happens. You’ll need the confidence that your precious jewellery is covered with a comprehensive policy from a company you can trust.
As you search for a provider for your engagement ring insurance, look for the following qualities:
References and recommendations have always been reliable sources of information, and today, references often come in the form of online reviews. As you search for an engagement ring insurance provider, pay attention to the reviews they’ve received from former and current clients. You’ll be able to learn about the company’s commitment to quality and customer service.
For instance, from an insurance provider’s testimonials you’ll learn about their responsiveness and professionalism, as well as the situations that led to clients having to have their engagement rings replaced and repaired.
