I recently took at a combined policy which covers home, car and 2 motorbikes for a fraction of the cost of buying 4 policies seperately.

I didn't know such policies existed :eek: I renewed my home contents yesterday, my car insurance is due within the next 14 days.

Well there is a reason that they aren't widely publicised and that's simply because they'd rather sell you 2 and sell me 4.

Cheers lisyloo, does one have to ask each individual company if such a combination exists?

I have pmed you.
There are efforts underway to get something offered to MSE members through the proper channels i.e. Martin.

No connection (except satisfied customer).

Would you be able to PM me the name of the company too. Both my home and car insurances are due soon.

Have pmed you both, but you need to make sure for yourself that the product is suitable for your needs.

No connection. No kickback. No advice.
Do your own research etc.

Yes, I always wondered if I was doing something redundant when I paid for legal cover for both home policy and car policy. Do I need legal cover for my car insurance policy when I've already taken it out with my home insurance policy?

What do you think?

Depending on actual policy trms- you will likely find that there is some overlap, but many areas that are not duplicated. Also be aware of some cut down options that seem nothing more than a referral to a no win / no fee solicitor.
