Halifax home insurance customers will be happy today as they find out that they will receive GBP50 as a thank you for their loyalty to the company.
Each year that customers stay with the Halifax and have a claim free year they will receive GBP50, the award to be ongoing. The decision was made to introduce the payment after feedback from customers showed that they would like to their loyalty recognised. In addition to the payment customers will also be pleased to see that they can save up to GBP125 just by switching their buildings and contents insurance to the Halifax.
The head of marketing felt that this loyalty payment was perceived much more positively than the usual incentives and promotions offered by some other insurers.
Having surveyed homeowners across the country Halifax Home Insurance has found that around 1.7 million households have an unfinished renovation project that they have been working around for 2 years or more.
Of the people surveyed by the Halifax almost half of them said they just did not have the time to finish the job off, while nearly 30 percent said they could not afford to complete the work. It appears that the most common room that remains unfinished is the bedroom, perhaps because it is not a room everyone sees.
A Halifax Home Insurance spokesman, looking at the information, felt that effective budgeting at the start of the project could help more people get jobs finished. Taking a realistic view of costs rather than being overly optimistic is perhaps the biggest change to make.

According to a recent survey conducted by Santander over 40% of homeowners who took out a home insurance policy did not read their insurance agreement before taking out a policy.Homeowners that do not read the full terms and conditions of the contract run the risk of being under insured, as they are not fully aware of what their insurance cover actually covers.Research has shown that some policyholders who thought that they were covered for a particular level of coverage like accidental damage, were in fact not covered at all, and face the expensive task of replacing the items at their own expense. This of course could have been avoided had they read the level of cover included on their insurance policy. All homeowners want the best level of cover at the cheapest price for buildings insurance and contents insurance, but they must check to see that the cover meets their insurance needs before taking out a policy. Not all policies are the same and that is why it is so important to read the terms and conditions very carefully making sure that it does in fact meet the right level of cover to protect their home and their possessions.See our home insurance comparison table for more information or our guides and tips pages.
