Hi,
Last month I was sent a letter from TSB to say they are removing home emergency cover from my account which I dont want to lose.
I currently pay £25 a month for the account which gives me the below.
Home emergency
Full AA cover
Mobile phone insurance for 3 phones
Full Annual Travel Insurance
There's a few other things but I don't use those services. The account has been excellent value over the years for my family and I'm really disappointed its changing.
Does anyone know of any similar accounts? A web search inst bringing any accounts with home emergency cover.
Thanks in advance

I do not know of any accounts that provide home cover but if TSB are going to continue to charge £25 for the remaining three items you can get them a lot cheaper from for example nationwide0

Or just change to their Platinum account?

And no banks tend to not offer home cover for things anymore0 -

Yes its the platinum they are converting it to. Home emergency cover has been such a saving for me over the years though.0 -

I'd definitely take this as an opportunity to shop around and see if you can get all the benefits you actually use for a cheaper price than your TSB account fee from alternate suppliers - £300/year is a fair chunk of cash so I suspect this is likely the case. I'd recommend comparison sites such as GoCompare, etc. Otherwise the Nationwide FlexPlus account is a good offering, although they are going to be removing their 3% interest rate in the near future (see: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=6029314).0

I've got Home Emergency and gas boiler cover on my contents insurance. Added about £2 a month to it.
TSB platinum looks vastly over priced even with all the other insurances.0 -
Halifax Ultimate Reward offers some sort of HE cover, along with breakdown, travel and phone insurances

Funnily enought I received the following from Lloyds the other day:We’re changing the provider of the Home Emergency Cover that comes with your Premier Current Account.
It means your AA Home Emergency Cover which is underwritten by Acromas Insurance Company Limited will end on 1 October 2019 and your new policy will start with the UK Branch of Inter Partner Assistance SA on 2 October 2019.
