When you take out property insurance for a certain amount and it’s less than the replacement value of what’s being insured, the insurance company can (legally) reduce what it pays you for any claim. Effectively they will pay you a proportion of the amount claimed e.g. you insure for only 60% of the actual replacement cost so, in the event of a claim, the insurer will only pay you 60% of the loss suffered. Note this is a simplistic example but highlights why you should contact MIB today.
