Bank of Ireland Offer is Best Deal for Home Insurance

17% saving for new customers with 12 months cover for price of 10

Home owners now have the opportunity to avail of the best insurance deal in the country with the offer of 12 months top quality cover for the price of 10 from Bank of Ireland Insurance Services - Ireland's largest home insurance provider. When premiums for this offer were compared against nine of the main insurers in the market they ranked first for approximately 70% of homes.

The offer is open to first time customers who register before 31st August. This includes any new customer whose policy with another company is due for renewal after the closing date.

According to Conor Patton, Marketing Manager, Bank of Ireland Insurance Services, "The beauty of this offer goes beyond price alone. This cover goes the extra mile in the quality of the cover offered. Along with giving interest free instalments that can save as much as Eur50 a year, the policy comprehensively addresses a range of unexpected but important events and occasions that involve the home, the owners and their possessions.

For example, it automatically provides cover for the belongings of college students who attend college in another area of Ireland. Another advantage of this policy is that the insured house and contents are covered against accidental damage. Another example is when a customer discovers a water leak but can't locate the source. This policy, unlike many others, covers the costs associated with tracing that leak. The policy also automatically provides a 10 per cent increase in cover over Christmas or around the time of a wedding when the contents of the home automatically increase.

Anyone can purchase this cover at any Bank of Ireland branch throughout the country or by calling our Lo-call number 1890 604 604. Homeowners today are very aware of the value of their home and its contents and this product fully protects those assets."

Students' Contents at College

Students who move away from their Parents Home to attend college in another area of Ireland will automatically have their belongings covered whilst away provided the amount does not exceed 20% of the Contents Sum Insured on their Parents Home Insurance Policy.

Accidental Damage

Accidental Damage Cover is automatically part of the Bank of Ireland cover and includes accidental events to Buildings & Contents, giving rise to a loss, e.g. a large spillage on carpet.
