Home contents insurance is a must for anyone seeking to protect their home from fire, theft, maybe flood or earthquakes - and when these problems happen the insurance company
will be able to pay for the cost of the "disasters".

Of course, it's not as simple as this and the insurance cost (for which you will get a policy document with appropriate terms and conditions) can vary enormously depending on the size of your house, whether you live in a flood plain, how old your house is, the history of claims in the neighbourhood and a number of other factors.

That said, it is possible to shop around and get varying deals on home contents insurance. Keeping tabs on which are the latest and greatest deals is a challenge but it is one that a few websites have started to do. Home Contents Insurance UK is one such site and lists a good number of the benefits and deals available to policy-seekers.

Online policies can usually be obtained for a significant discount, whether it is 5% or 30% (yes they can be a significant as that) because the insurance company does not have to employ someone to read and interpret a form, or answer the phone. Rather, they can use the basic information about rooms and contents to determine the cost of your policy. This is termed the 'premium' which you can pay monthly or yearly - typically people pay by the year on an annual basis. This does mean you get a good period towards the end of your year to shop around for a good policy in future years.
