My 91 year old mother's home insurance was up for renewal so I rang the company. No policy cover details came with the renewal form.
Contents cover seemed to have disappeared from her policy since her original policy with Shield which was absorbed by Eagle Star and then Zurich.
Anyhow, I asked for contents (25k) to be included on her policy and was told that the premium was less than for buildings only. Is this true?
Also, when I said not to bother with accidental damage cover on the contents, the contact in Zurich asked me twice whether to go ahead and cancel the accidental damage cover on the buildings. Is it common not to have accidental damage cover on buildings?
