Insurance

A guide to UK finance, jargon and credit.

Insurance need not be complicated but there are so many options one is left with feeling uneasy about whether or not we have got a good deal. Online insurance in the UK is very good and easy to find. All brokers should be regulated and try and check out their contact details before talking to them. Insurance is well suited for the net and the reduced admin costs can bring down the overall price of insurance.

Third party car insurance or Comprehensive car insurance can be done totally online, though always pay by credit card and not debit card in case it goes wrong and you wish to put your card into dispute. Check with your credit card company what protection you may have.

Household insurance and/or buildings and contents insurance is an important business and the small print has to be examined. Under insuring your house and contents can result in only a part of the claim being paid. In other words, if you are 50% under insured and you make even a small claim, they may pay only 50%. Check out all details and eventualities with a broker.
