Better to be over-insured than under-insured

"Many people in Australia are under-insured. Remember that carpet, blinds, curtains and air conditioners attached to windows all come under contents insurance, while fixed items such as air conditioners attached to walls, dishwashers in cabinets and tiles come under home insurance." - Steven Mickenbecker, CANSTAR CANNEX Head of Research, Product and Strategy.
