Automatic re-broking at renewal: The proposition offers a commitment to maintaining low prices year after year, as the product includes automatic re-broking at renewal, saving customers time and money.
No hidden fees: Transparent fee structure where customers will not incur any fees if they choose to cancel their home insurance or make a mid-term adjustment.
The new home insurance product is available online, with options to take out a policy by telephone for customers without online access. A variety of communication methods are available for renewals, including online, email, post, and telephone.
The partnership with Uinsure also ensures that any new business or renewal quote will automatically offer the customer the lowest price based on Uinsure’s panel of underwriters, with the cheapest price meaning less need to shop around, saving them money and time.
Graeme Sands, head of personal banking at Virgin Money, said: “Virgin Money’s innovative home insurance product offers a market-leading quote journey in as little as 30 seconds, competitive pricing through a panel of insurers, automatic re-broking at renewal, and a transparent fee structure with no hidden fees. In collaboration with Uinsure, who will administer our home insurance product, we provide customers with simplicity, quality, and transparency.”
Martin Schultheiss, Uinsure group managing director, said: “Our technology is built solely around the user – meaning customers can enjoy an insurance journey that’s free of the complexities they might previously have struggled with.
“The Virgin brand is one of the most recognised globally, with a long history of pushing boundaries and innovating for the benefit of its customers. That way of thinking very much mirrors our own way of working and we’re extremely excited to commence our partnership with Virgin Money.”
