Safeguarding Your Christmas Haul: Don't Let the Grinch Win!
Posted on 17th December 2024 at 14:31
When the wrapping paper settles and the last of the mince pies disappear, it will be time to think about protecting those shiny new Christmas gifts.
Here's how to ensure your festive bounty stays safe and sound:
Update Your Home Contents Insurance
Take stock of valuable new items you've received
Contact your insurer to update your policy, ensuring adequate coverage for high-value gifts
Extend Your Protection Beyond Your Four Walls
Consider adding personal possessions cover to your policy
This protects items like smartphones, laptops, or jewellery when you're out and about
Document Your Treasures
Keep receipts for expensive gifts in a safe place
Snap clear photos of valuable items, including any unique identifying features
Create a digital inventory of your prized possessions
Check Your Seasonal Coverage
Many insurers automatically boost your contents cover during December
This increase can range from 10% to 25% of your sum insured
Don't assume you're covered - review your policy details or contact your insurer to confirm
Remember, a little post-Christmas admin can go a long way in protecting your new treasures. Don't give would-be Grinches a chance to dampen your Christmas cheer!
