How multi-cover insurance works

Pick 3 or more options
Create the policy that suits you. You can add and remove 1 option each year and switch as many times as you like on the anniversary of your policy – as long as you keep a minimum of 3 types of cover.
Cover for you and your family
Relax knowing your family will be covered. This includes your partner and any children under 18 who live with you.
Plus, any children under 23 who are in full-time education, but are at home outside of term time.


One monthly fee
Prices start from just £19.50 a month for 3 options, which works out as £234 a year. If you'd like to add more options the prices are:
- £26.00 for 4 options (£312 a year)
- £32.50 for 5 options (£390 a year)
- £39.00 for 6 options (£468 a year)
- £45.50 for all 7 options (£546 a year)
Choose from 7 types of cover

Mobile Phone
Fed up with losing or damaging your phone? With this cover, you can make up to 4 claims a year to replace damaged, lost or stolen phones.

Motor Breakdown
Get vehicle repairs at home, at the roadside – even in Europe. Includes recovery assistance for any car that you, or your family are travelling in.

Excess Protection
This cover will refund the excess you pay to make a claim. It applies to any motor, travel, home or pet insurance policy, and Select and Cover options that have an excess.

Starter Life

Things you should know
Avoid insurance overlap
Does your mobile phone package include insurance? Or, perhaps you already have an annual travel insurance policy with your bank account. Be sure to compare your existing insurance policies against the Select and Cover options you’re considering. This will help you to compare the costs and see if a multi-cover insurance policy could suit you.
Excesses and exclusions apply
For Mobile Phone, Gadget and some Worldwide Travel Insurance claims, you'll need to pay an insurance excess. If you include the Excess Protection option, you can get this refunded.
