    I suspect that it would be a waste of money. Most mortgage protection policies have huge exclusions. It would perhaps be better to open an ISA specially for mortgage payments in case of redundancy and make a monthly payment into it to cover himself just in case.

    Actually, mortgage ones are not too bad. That is why most MPPI complaints fail (whereas most loan & credit card PPi complaints succeed).

  • Thanks for that. Was wondering about income protection, but we are having the same problem, with him working abroad. Any ideas about companies who would be able to help.
