During London’s Olympic Games on July 27 – August 12, the nation’s capital city expects to be swamped with around 350,000 overseas visitors per day, excluding the competitors themselves, UK visitors, and up to 78,000 volunteers.  In order to enjoy their own personal Games experiences to optimum levels, it is highly likely the vast majority of people from each of these categories, whether they are competing, working, spectating, or simply enjoying the atmosphere without direct involvement, will carry varying amounts of gadgetry with them.

 

For both personal and work purposes, the sheer volume of mobile phones and iPhones, earphones and headphones, laptops and iPads, cameras and camcorders, MP3 players and iPods that Games visitors and workers will have with them is almost inestimable.  By way of a timely warning, gadget insurance specialist Protect your bubble suggests that people planning to attend the Games should review their existing insurance policies to check exactly where they stand if their gadgets get damaged, lost or are stolen.  It also urges people who do not currently have any gadget insurance to consider a suitable policy to protect their possessions, during the Olympic Games, and also on an ongoing basis.

 

Mass concentrations of people, like those expected at the Olympic Games in July and August, are easy targets for petty criminals.  Thieves have multiple opportunities to strike and get away unnoticed amidst crowds, particularly in and around Games venues, at outdoor TV screenings, and on and around the Underground.  Protect your bubble additionally reminds people that the possibility of falling victim to petty crime is not the only threat to be concerned about.

 

High spirited crowd situations also mean that people can damage their gadgets or lose them more easily than they might do whilst going about their everyday business.  Gadgetry can be dropped, crushed, lost or trodden on any day of the year, but Olympian sized crowds increase the likelihood of such damages and losses.  Protect your bubble insure the gadgets of more than 150,000 people from £1.49 a month – a small price to pay for peace of mind that financial and practical help is at hand for people who experience gadget damages, losses and thefts during the Olympic period.
