anybody got experience with this? i am renting. i got a quote from my bank for like 25 pounds a month which seems a little on the fucking high side.

Try the Co-op instead, might be lots cheaper.

what is "excess"? is that what american call the "deductible"? surely i don't have to pay that for each item i claim, but once for the whole enchilada if i get broken into or something.

thanks suzy - co-op is around 15 pounds a month and seems like a better package to boot

I get mine from Endsleigh, but it's more because they are good with weird suitcase-living international student scenarios. Not sure if they are particularly cheap, but they have the student market sewn up so presumably they can't be that expensive.
Yes, excess = you pay the first £x of the total of any claim.

Excess can be made per-item on specified individual high value/portable items (antiques, laptops, etc.) depending on the policy, so watch out for that.

Any particular recommended (UK) contents insurance? Nothing particularly valuable but I a 5000 or so CD collection might be difficult to replace.

Missed out the word "guess" somewhere along the line, there.
