Mozo snapshot:
The Virgin Money Home and Contents Insurance policy offers comprehensive cover at competitive prices, giving you the chance to protect your valuables and your budget at the same time. And it's got the silverware to prove it. That's because it took home a 2019 Mozo Experts Choice Award for Exceptional Value Home & Contents Insurance.
Plus if you’re a member of the Velocity frequent flyer program, you could score 5,000 Velocity Points just by signing up for a policy.
Key features:
There’s a lot to like about the Virgin Money Home and Contents Insurance policy, starting with just how extensive it is. You’ll find you’re covered under a wide range of circumstances, including fire, storm, earthquake and theft. Flood and accidental damage cover are also available but come in a list of extras which must be purchased separately.
Cash is covered up to $800, while computer software is insured for up to $3,000. Cover for valuables is much higher: $5,000 per item for artwork, or up to $12,000 in total, and $1,000 per item for jewellery, or up to $5,000 in total.
The application process is online and should take no more than a few minutes. And once your policy is up and running, you’ll be able to manage it online with the Virgin Insurance Hub. When it comes time to make a claim, you can do so online or over the phone at any time.
One nifty perk of this policy is the chance to earn Velocity Points. If you’re already a member of the Velocity program and apply before 19 August 2020, you can bag 5,000 Velocity Points upon purchase of a new policy. If you’re saving up for a trip, this will bring you one step closer.
Who it's good for:
Virgin Money Home and Contents Insurance would be a great fit for anyone looking to safeguard their belongings from unfortunate occurrences like theft and natural disasters. Fans of the Velocity Points program will also enjoy the 5,000 Velocity Points available upon signup.
Any catches?
It pays to read the PDS really carefully before signing up, as there are plenty of exclusions and conditions typical to insurance policies you’ll need to be aware of. For example, loss or damage caused by weather will not be covered if it can be traced back to a design fault or lack of maintenance on your part.
And if you’ve got your sights set on those Velocity points, keep in mind that the offer is only valid for purchases made between 18 December 2019 - 19 August 2020, and to be eligible to receive them, you’ll have to be an existing member of the Velocity program.

Inexpensive and great value for money.
My household had been with another insurer since 2006. We just decided to switch to Virgin's "home and contents" insurance. I am happy because they are cheaper than our previous policy.
