Lloyds TSB has announced a new home insurance product for those aged 50 and over, with the option to tailor the protection to suit specific requirements.
This new Lloyds TSB insurance product acknowledges the many and varied needs of people so gives them the chance to opt in or out of different aspects of home protection. Standard cover includes fire, flood, subsidence and theft but on top these there are 21 other areas of household insurance that can be added if required to match the householders individual lifestyle.
A bank spokesman said that this alternative approach showed how well Lloyds TSB recognised the customers as individuals and that we all have different needs from home insurance.
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.
Liverpool Victoria has just announced a removal of what are considered unfair admin charges for all its LV= insurance customers.
Moving forwards Liverpool Victoria insurance policyholders will not face charges for cover level amendments, address changes or cancellations that have been out of the policyholders control. The MD of LV= insurance supported the move, saying that customers sometimes have to make small changes and it is unfair to charge them to do this.
He went on to say that providing good quality insurance at a competitive price is what Liverpool Victoria is about. LV= do not want to hit customers with hidden costs, instead wanting to treat their customers fairly.
