Post Office increases Christmas home insurance cover

The Post Office has decided to spread a bit of Christmas cheer to its home insurance customers by increasing their level of cover during December.

According to the Post Office, the 10% extra cover on contents insurance means people don’t need to worry about the gifts they’re buying for friends and family getting damaged or stolen.

“The last thing you want to have to worry about over Christmas is whether you have enough cover on your home insurance,” said Richard Pennant-Jones, Post Office head of 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.”

The Post Office is also offering £25 cashback to new customers who take out combined home and buildings insurance.

Alternatively, customers can opt to receive a £25 winter fuel voucher.

The £25 payment is made 60 days after the combined policy is purchased.
