• Will the plan cover me if I move house?

  Your plan is not affected by any changes to your mortgage or residence. However, if your situation has changed it may be worth considering if your plan still suits your needs. Changes to your plan for example increasing the amount of cover could be as easy as making a phone call, and in some cases will not need any further underwriting.

• Can I change the amount of cover?

  Subject to certain conditions, you can increase the amount of cover on your plan without any further medical evidence. You will be entitled to this option:

  • if you get married or enter into a civil partnership
  • become a parent, through birth or adoption
  • move home or improve your home

  This is known as your Guaranteed Insurability Option.
