Top level managers at Hastings Direct insurance company have denied rumours that job losses will be greater than that already advised.
The local newspaper in Bexhill, where Hastings Direct are the towns biggest employer, has been receiving anonymous calls saying that rather than the ten job losses that had been stated there were in fact over fifty less jobs at the company now. There was also speculation that more reductions were on the way.
To clarify the position the company released a statement in which it was made clear that redundancies would add up to ten at the most, coming from a review of operations that had been underway for some time. Any other reductions in the number of jobs had come naturally, either via retirement or by people not being replaced if they left.
Hastings Direct also wanted to confirm they are a very active and successful participant in the insurance market, with plans to develop further in the future. They also intend to retain their Bexhill offices as the centre of operations, aiming to grow further as the business expands.
Life Assurance plans are something that everyone should have, as long as they are the most suitable for the customer. The CIS Life Insurance division is offering some handy tips to help customers make sure their loved ones are looked after.
CIS Insurance are, for example, offering customer alerts to advise of premium increases as well as identifying the best life assurance policies for those with children. A key aspect of this type of cover is the provision of income replacement, where a sum is paid on a quarterly basis to the remaining family.
A word of warning is also issued regarding Whole of Life policies, from the CIS or any other insurance company, since they are tied in to the performance of the stock market. This means that the amount payable could actually be less than that paid in.
Designed especially for the over 50 market Tesco Finance has launched a new life insurance policy that will leave a guaranteed tax free lump sum upon claiming.
There is no medical needed as long as applicants are aged between 50 and 75 and all customers who purchase the policy before 26 June also receive a GBP20 gift voucher. Applying for the Tesco Finance life insurance policy is really easy, using the phone or online.
Payments into the Tesco Finance insurance policy stop when the person covered reaches 90 years of age but the policy remains valid until death. Typically a 55 year old man who pays GBP10 per month would receive a lump sum of over GBP2,400, while a woman of the same age and paying the same amount would receive over GBP3,000.
