Redundancy insurance can be taken out to cover your loan or mortgage repayments up to a pre-defined amount each month, or a portion of your income which would be pre-agreed against the possibility that you might lose your income to involuntary unemployment. The sum that you chose to insure would be the payment you would receive back each month as a tax-free income. All providers will set a deferment period which you must wait before claiming on the protection and all will state how long you would receive your income.

Leading payment protection specialist British Insurance offers redundancy insurance that would have no excess as they back date the cover to the first day that you become unemployed. You would begin to receive the benefit from the 30th day and would then have a period of 12 months in which to find work before the protection would cease. If you chose to shop around with other providers you might find that you could take out protection for up to 24 months but you would have to check the small print before taking on the policy. You also have to check with them to find out when they would begin to supply you with benefit as some policies come with a deferment period of up to 90 days. Exclusions would also have to be checked as all providers add in some. Ethical British Insurance includes a few exclusions and you can check for suitability because they provide you with the information on their website.

Mortgage payment protection should be considered by all homeowners who work full time and are the main wage earner in the family. A loss of income and nothing to fall back on could mean you might fall into arrears with the repayments of the mortgage and not be able to catch up. If this happens the lender could choose to repossess your home and you could be evicted. The money you received from the protection would go towards maintaining the repayments and gives peace of mind that mortgage arrears would not occur. With British Insurance you would save up to as much as 40% on the cost of the premiums.

If you have loan repayments to keep up with then loan payment protection would provide you with a sum of money towards servicing your loan repayments each month. It would help you to maintain your credit file and stop you from falling behind and British Insurance saves you up to 80% on the premiums.

Income payment protection taken as redundancy insurance would provide you with an income to be used towards maintaining all of your essential outgoings. These can be any bills that come into the home each month. You would not have to struggle and make changes to your lifestyle or worry about being able to put food on the table or keep the home running.
