About our Cover

What does your policy cover?

Up to £2,500 annual cover for accidental damage to your landlord's property, fixtures and fittings and possessions in the rented property. The first £100 of any claim will not be paid.

Can I get immediate cover?

Yes, we offer immediate cover provided that you are able to pay the premium in full by a valid debit or credit card. If you wish to arrange cover, please call 0844 561 0880.

Can I get cover for a few months?

Our tenant's liability insurance policy will provide insurance cover for 12 months.  You can buy a policy and cancel it if you require cover for less than 12 months but you should be aware that this policy is non-refundable after 14 days, so you would not get any refund.  You are however, able to transfer the cover to a new property if you move during the 12 months, see ‘Making a change to your policy' below.

Making a change to your policy

What changes do I need to tell you about?

You need to tell us about any change that may affect your insurance cover (these are called material facts). Material facts are those which are likely to influence an insurer in the assessment or acceptance of a risk. If in doubt, please contact us and we can inform you whether it affects your insurance policy. For this product, this would be previous claims for accidental damage or a change in your address.

How much will it cost to make a change?

Your premium will not be affected if you make a change. However, Letsure may charge you a fee for making a change to your policy. Our current fees are shown in the  Initial Disclosure Document.

Can I make a change to my policy online?

Unfortunately, we are currently unable to offer you this service but we hope to offer this service in the future. To make a change you will need to contact us.

Cancelling your policy

Will I get a refund if I cancel my  Tenant Liability insurance policy?

You will not receive any refund if you cancel your policy after the first 14 days as this policy is non-refundable.

Can I cancel if I have made a claim?

Yes, you can cancel if you have made a claim but there will be no refund of premium due to you.

Making a claim on your Tenant Liability Insurance

How do I make a claim?

Details on how to make a claim for Tenant's Liability Insurance can be found here.

Do I have to pay an excess if I claim?

Excesses apply on some policies and also vary depending on the type of claim. For full details on whether an excess will apply, please either refer to your documents or you can view the policy wordings . If you are still unsure please contact us.

How long will my claim take?

Your policy documents should arrive within 5 working days of the policy being bought, as we use the postal system, sometimes events such as industrial disputes, transportation issues or loss of mail can occur which may affect the delivery timescales.  If you have not received any documents after 10 days, you should contact us as there is likely to have been an issue.

Price and payment

Does my price include insurance premium tax?

Yes, all of our insurance premiums include IPT at the current rate. All insurance premium tax is paid to the insurer who in turn will pay this to Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs.

Can I pay by instalments?

Unfortunately you cannot pay by instalments as this policy requires a one off payment.
