Wonder if there are alternatives, seem to remember that M & S are not as good on the bike coverage as they were? Thanks

Halifax offered a much better deal than M&S would give me.

My bikes are still covered ok on our M&S policy, total replacement cost about 5.2K,(I treble checked). Had a buildings claim just after crimbo for £600 & they paid up within 5 days just on my word of what had happened & the cost of the repair.
Good service.

i am having a nightmare with a claim at the moment with M&S (Axa) a simple accident blown out of all proportion. Having done all they asked, including dancing on one leg, they are still deliberating!

Im actually glad i dont have to go with these guys next year.
