Summary of Cover:
The features and cost of personal insurance cover will depend on the type and level of personal insurance that you take out. You can opt for many different types of cover, as well as combinations of personal insurance cover and plans to cover your partner or your whole family. It is important that you ensure that any personal insurance policy provides adequate cover for your needs. Insurance can be a complex topic, and you should ensure that you are comfortable with the features, benefits, and price before you commit.


 Extras:
There are a number of extras available with personal insurance, and these depend on the type of cover you take out. You may have to pay a little extra on your premiums, but these extras could prove invaluable in the future. You can select from extras such as:
•     Critical Illness Cover, which can provide valuable additional peace of mind in the event that you are unable to earn money due to critical illness. The lump sum paid out is yours to keep even if you go on to recover.

•    Disability and Unemployment Cover is available in addition to other personal insurance, and gives additional peace of mind in case you are unable to work
through incapacitation.

There are many different optional extras, and the choice depends on the type of policy you are taking out. You should check with your insurer with regards to extras, as it can work out far cheaper to have combined insurance rather than take out separate policies.

Additional Information:
It is imperative that you check any personal insurance policy before making a commitment to ensure that it provides the levels of cover that you require. Policies can differ from one insurer to another, and it is advisable to compare both premiums and features before making a decision. The claims procedure can also vary from one insurer to another. You should ensure that you are familiar with the claims procedure for your particular policy and insurer.

Saving Money on your Cover:
If you want to save even more money on your personal insurance cover there are some steps you can take to cut costs. These include:

•    Shop around as the cost of cover and the benefits of cover can vary from insurer to insurer, so it is important to compare the various deals on offer.

•    Go online as the Internet is often home to some of the cheapest personal insurance deals around, and you can also enjoy far more choice. Some insurers offer additional discounts to online customers.
 
•    Combine your cover with valuable add-ons such as critical illness cover and disability cover rather than taking out separate policies, as this can work out much cheaper.

•    Increase the amount of excess on your policy: The higher the excess on your policy (the sum you have to pay from your own pocket in the event of a claim) the lower your premiums are likely to be. However, before you make your decision you should see whether it makes a significant difference to the cost of the policy, as you should remember that the amount of the excess will have to come from your pocket should a claim be made. If the claim made is for a sum that is lower than the amount of the excess on your policy, you would have to pay the whole amount of the claim from your own pocket.
