Do you mean property and contents insurance or insurance whilst you are building?

Hi have been with Linea Directa for many years, with both Home and car insurance never had a problem and I actually made a claim for something I was not insured for but thought I was, explained the situation and they said as I was a long term valid client they would pay me any way, received 206 euro in my bank account within 10days. 

I would suggest you never accept the first quote you receive from them and haggle a little, say you want to check with other companies, never known them to fail and decrease the price.

You can use a comparison site which I always check, I use https://www.rastreator.com/seguros-de-hogar it is in Spanish but I am sure with google you will be able to understand.

Linea directa is https://www.lineadirecta.com/english-expats/  Telephone 917 002 006 very helpful on the phone.

Try Abbeygate, search online, they are around Malaga I believe but seem to be linked to a company in Bristol area
