UK-based Barclays has announced half price home contents cover for the first year, which is available to anyone taking out home insurance with the company for the first time until August 31, 2009.
Barclays said that customers who take the company’s home insurance benefit from the following features: contents cover with liability as occupier of up to GBP2m as standard; standard contents cover of up to GBP50,000; and standard buildings cover of up to GBP500,000.
Gary Duggan, managing director for consumer lending and insurance at Barclays, said: This offer could help thousands of people to cut the cost of their home insurance and it’s also a good opportunity to make sure they are currently covered for all eventualities. While we’re helping with monthly payments, people must remember that the most costly mistake when it comes to home insurance is being under-insured.
