how did you get a 1 year lease ?

I have gone ahead and leased a samsung x360 laptop via PCWB its value is £1200
I need to insure it, can you recommend a company that does laptop insurance.
I know PCW offer it, but surely there must be others & better prices.Comment

You can pick up a real good laptop from HP, Dell etc themselves from their sites on on Ebay for 500 quid complete with software, maintenance, next day replacement directly from the vendor etc. So why on earth would you want to lease a laptop?? Its just not worth it. What do you hope to gain?? Laptops are throwaway commodity items these days.
If you are not happy with the above, you can get a free laptop from most broadband providers. Assuming that you will pay for a broadband service anyway, what else do you want??
