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.

Also, there's a 15% discount up for grabs on your first year’s premium when you buy online and combined Virgin Home and Contents Insurance. Plus another 15% off your premium in the first year if you buy your policy online.

Who is it 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.

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.
