Allianz Cornhill Schemes has teamed up with software retailer GAME to sell insurance for the new PlayStation 3 and other games consoles.

GAME customers can now extend the standard manufacturer's guarantee on their consoles by either one or two years for protection against accidental damage and break down.

Steven Burrell, new business manager for Allianz Cornhill Schemes said: "Today's consoles not only allow the user to play games, they can be used as a complete entertainment centre, and the soon to be launched PS3 is a good example of this.

"If there is a problem with the console it affects each different function, so it has become increasingly important to have some form of insurance cover."

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
