other than camerainsurance.ie / O'Loughlin insurance are there any other insurance company or brokers in Ireland that people could recommend.

Thanks

Are there others? Yes.
Could I recommend any? Nope.

Camerainsurance.ie seems to give the best prices and best service.

I did price others before, but when you examine the contract clauses, they just didn't work for me. One only covered the gear from 9am to 5pm, Mon to Fri. Since I do sport, and mostly work evenings and weekends, it meant that I would have no coverage. Insane. :eek:

Always good to shop around, but make sure you read the fine print, as well as watching the price.

Ya normally they are my first choice but there is a little bit of back and forth this year with the underwriters about whether they offer the coverage I need, hopefully it will be all sorted and I will stay with them.
I was just going to shop around in the mean time because the renewal date is getting closer.

A few UK companies insure in Ireland.

Towergate and Photoshield.

Can't say I'd recommend either. But no harm getting a quote.

I switched to Towergate from O'Loughlins 2 years back. Slight difference in the excess, but there massive difference in price (and no issue with gear outside office hours/location). It's worth getting a quote and checking the terms.
