Excess
Protection gives a financial boost to all ...
Reports from the British Insurance Brokers Association (BIBA) that an increasing
number of people are opting to raise their insurance excesses in a bid to reduce
premiums is a prudent measure, providing they can recoup the extra excess costs
when they make a claim, says Simon Vella from insure4excess.com.
At
its recent conference, BIBA unveiled research showing that 16% of brokers' clients
have increased their motor and home excesses, saving hundreds of pounds in insurance
premiums. However, BIBA is concerned those looking to save money could face a
hefty bill in the future.
"Not
if they have excess protection", says Vella. "Our low-cost Excess Protection policy
reimburses claimants' payouts to insurers across a wide range of policies, so
they no longer have to 'write off' substantial amounts in excess payments.".
insure4excess.com
launched its policy, Excess Protection, earlier this year - it reimburses excess
costs incurred on motor, home, travel, pet and private medical insurance (PMI).
Policy underwriters estimate claimants liabilities are around £100 for home, travel
and PMI, £180 for motor and £60 for pet, equating to around £540 per household.
Although not every household has these five policies, the odds on having to shell
out on motor and home insurance excesses alone are compelling. According to the
Association of British Insurers some 2.3million motor and 1.1million household
claims were made in 2007. This equates to one in 10 motor policyholders and one
in 16 households with contents cover*.
Vella
continues: "The policy gives peace of mind to a growing number of consumers who
are opting to increase their excesses to pay lower premiums. Our policy costs
a fraction of the premium savings that can be made in a year and is far lower
than one excess payment - making it a winner for those who don't have to claim
and providing a much-needed financial boost for those who do."
An
Excess Protection bronze policy is £35 and covers up to £250 worth of excesses,
silver is £55 and reimburses up to £500 and gold is £69 and pays up to £750. An
unlimited number of claims can be made on these policies, providing they do not
exceed the excess limit.
