panglao 0 Posted September 30, 2009 Is there a camera insurance company commonly used other than DEPP or DAN? With DAN even though I am a US citizen I do not live there. With DEPP it says coverage is not even available in all states. I emailed them to ask about my situation and so far no response. US home insurance is not an option. I found the site www.camerainsurance.co.uk but they seem to link mainly to UK insurance companies who have "leisure" policies as part of their regular plans. I live full time overseas and need a global insurer if there is one. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thatporchdawg 0 Posted September 30, 2009 I'm an American living overseas and I use DEPP with no issues. They're not very good at communicating, but I'm covered. No worries so far. Cheers, Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nated1971 0 Posted October 21, 2009 If you are in the states, I have all my gear, to include my camera, housing, flash, etc.... insured through State Farm. They have a sports equipment policy that covers all that gear regardless of how it is lost or damaged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MIKE POWELL 1 Posted October 22, 2009 Are those State Farm policies through your Homeowners policy? I use DAN now and I've never had to make a claim, but it seems pricey to me. Living in Florida on the water I have to get my homeowners Ins. through a State run program and Allstate who writes all my other policies will only cover a small portion of my camera equipment. Anybody living in Florida using State Farm? Thanks! Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diver dave1 23 Posted October 22, 2009 Are those State Farm policies through your Homeowners policy? Mine is totally independent of my homeowners policy. its stand alone. You might call statefarm and ask them about a policy, if you are interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nated1971 0 Posted October 22, 2009 Yes, mine is a stand alone policy as well, although I do get a multiple line discount with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrFiscus 2 Posted October 26, 2009 I have had two claims with DAN insurance - they are very good and very prompt in paying. I recommend them highly. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
