Is this the policy for me?
If you’re over 50 and haven’t claimed for at least 3 years then we believe this will be the home insurance policy for you.
- ‘New for old’ cover: If an item cannot be repaired we will replace it with a new one.
- Up to 30% no claims discount: If you have been claim free for 3 or more years 30% discount will apply.
- No excess on contents cover: If you haven’t claimed within the last 3 years we won’t apply any excess.
- Up to £500,000 buildings cover: Cover amount is based on number of bedrooms but can be increased if required.
- Up to £100,000 contents cover: Cover amount is based on number of bedrooms but can be increased if required.
- Hassle free, buy and manage your policy online: Our online application process is simple and you can download and manage your policies with the click of a button.
- No hidden admin fees: If you need to make a change to your policy we won’t sting you with any admin fees.
It’s the little things that make all the difference.
