LV= home insurance covers Christmas

Wednesday, 03 December 2008 12:00

Homeowners with LV= home insurance will receive a ten per cent increase in cover over Christmas, it was announced today.

The insurer is providing the festive boost between December 15th and January 15th in a bid to provide added cover for the stocks of gifts stockpiled in homes during the period.

And the seasonal bonus is not the only feature of LV='s home insurance. The firm said it provided discounts for buying policies online.

It also provides up to £500 of cover for money and credit cards away from home as part of the deal.

Emma Holyer, of LV= home insurance, said it was important, however, that people had cover for the additional presents hidden around the house or on display under the Christmas tree.

She added: "There are rich pickings for burglars around the festive season, with easy-to-steal gifts plus dark nights, so homeowners should check their insurer will cover them in the event of a break-in, flood or fire."
