Tenants are being asked by Direct Line home insurance to make sure they have contents insurance in place and also to speak to landlords regarding home security.
It makes sense for landlords to protect their property with security measures said a Direct Line spokesman, especially since it can help reduce insurance premiums. It is also prudent for tenants to have contents insurance cover to protect their own belongings.
Many tenants are surprised when they find out how little Direct Line home insurance costs and feel much happier knowing their goods are covered. With the added security provided by the landlords actions too that figure can go even lower.
Tesco Finance are telling UK consumers that there are savings to be made on insurance products, it is down to people to go and get them.
Take as an example home insurance renewals. 44 percent of consumers found their premiums had gone up, but nearly two thirds of people then stayed with their existing insurer rather than looking for an alternative at a lower price. It is not difficult to change insurers said a Tesco Finance spokesman, it simply needs a little motivation to get started.
The different comparison options available through the internet can really help with this process, making it quick and easy to see policies side by side. Tesco Finance recommend all consumers should do this and see if they can reduce their outgoings.

For those suffering a plumbing related incident that needs attention, whether on the home insurance policy or not, Norwich is the place to be since there are more plumbers there than anywhere else in the UK. Barclays Insurance also found that Essex is the best place to find an electrician.
As a spokesman from Barclays Insurance explained, it can sometimes be difficult to find a tradesman for an insurance quote or repair, though in some places it is more difficult than others. The key point is that tradesmen are a vital part of the UK infrastructure.
