Questions and Answers

Home Insurance

Q Can I have cover for things I take away from the home?
A Yes, you can extend your policy to cover personal belongings, valuables and money away from the home. It will also cover you if you leave an item, such as a musical instrument, at church and it is stolen during a break in.

Q Is the policy on a New for Old basis?
A Yes it is, apart from clothing and household linen.

Q Are my belongings covered if they are stolen from my car?
A Yes they are, providing they are concealed and locked in the glove box, luggage compartment or boot.

Q Are there any free helpline services?
A Yes there are. These are provided by DAS Legal Expenses Insurance Company Ltd and include confidential legal advice, tax advice, health and medical information, domestic assistance in the event of an emergency and veterinary assistance if your pet is ill or injured.
