Don’t give up your protection policy
With households facing the biggest squeeze on their incomes in many years, it’s understandable that families are looking for ways to cut costs.
When looking to cut back, reviewing subscriptions and direct debits (for example, for streaming services, food subscription boxes or gym memberships) is often a good place to start, but there is one cost that you shouldn’t be so quick to give up.
Protection is vital
As tempting as it is to cancel protection insurance policies, times of financial difficulty are exactly when we need protection the most.
Many policyholders aren’t aware that life insurance cover can be flexible, and there are ways to reduce your cover rather than cancelling it outright.
