Post Office offers extra Christmas contents cover

As people start hitting the shops in preparation for Christmas, Post Office Home Insurance is increasing its contents cover by 10 per cent during December to ensure customers are fully protected over the festive period.

During the run-up to Christmas people often find they have more valuables than normal with gifts for family and friends in the home. With finances already stretched, the risk of theft or accidental damage can be an additional unwanted worry.

Post Office Home Insurance automatically increases the level of contents cover at no extra cost during big celebrations such as Christmas to ensure that any gifts or extra valuables in your home at this time of year are protected.

Post Office Head of Home Insurance, Richard Pennant-Jones, said: "The last thing you want to have to worry about over Christmas is whether you have enough cover on your home insurance. By automatically raising the level of cover over the Christmas period Post Office customers can enjoy the party season safe in the knowledge that their gifts are fully protected should the worst happen."

In addition, customers who buy their combined home buildings and contents insurance at a Post Office branch can now look forward to receiving a £25 winter fuel voucher 60 days after taking out a policy or claim a £25 cash payment.
