Things to consider
- Cover ends at age 70
- There is no cash-in value at any time
- Your chosen cover meets your needs
This Accident Protection Plan provides you with a daily cash pay out should you end up in hospital as the result of an accident or if the worst was to happen, it provides a lump sum benefit to your loved ones in the event of your accidental death.
What’s covered?
• Accidental Death - £150,000 cash lump sum payout should you die as the result of an accident;
• Accident Hospitalisation - £300 per day if you are admitted to hospital as an inpatient for more than 24 hours, as the result of an accident (Up to a maximum of 180 days across all claims during the lifetime of the policy).
As long as you (and your partner, if covered on the policy) are UK residents and aged 18 to 69 then acceptance is guaranteed and there are no medicals or questionnaires to complete. You can be covered until you reach age 70.
You can enjoy peace of mind knowing your insurance is in place 24 hours a day, every day – even if you’re travelling abroad.
The plan is designed to keep up with rising costs, so to ensure that your cover maintains its value your benefits and premiums are automatically increased by 5% each year, until the maximum benefits are reached - £200,000 for the Accidental Death benefit and £400 per night for the Accident Hospitalisation benefit. Premiums do not increase with age.

Accidents, by their very nature, can happen at any time, any place and to anyone. This Accident Protection Plan is designed to meet the needs of those who wish to have some financial protection in place should they end up in hospital as the result of an accident or if the worst were to happen, to leave money behind for their loved ones if they were to die in an accident.
The policy pays out £150,000 accidental death benefit if you, or your partner (if covered under the policy), dies as a result of accidental injury. The cash lump sum can be used for any reason – to pay bills, meet mortgage repayments, cover funeral costs and other expenses too.
The policy has a £300 per day accidental hospitalisation cash benefit should you or anyone covered by the policy be admitted to hospital as an inpatient for more than 24 hours, following an accidental injury. This is payable for up to 180 days maximum benefit and will help compensate you for the additional expenses associated with a stay in hospital.
For example:
If you end up in hospital for 10 days following an accidental injury, the policy would pay you £3,000 cash benefit. The money can pay for any of your expenses, such as energy bills, groceries, travel, rent, or mortgage. It could even provide help around the home. This way, you will not have to worry about how you would cope financially while you are recovering in the hospital, leaving you with more time and energy to heal.

Samantha, 48, from Merseyside, who claimed on the insurance:
Samantha found herself in a car accident last year for which she was hospitalised for five days. Under this Accident Protection Plan, they would be paid £1,500.
Samantha was in a stationary car that was hit from behind. This aggravated a pre-existing back condition, which led to her being hospitalised, requiring MRIs and specialist treatment.
"...it kept my head above water…stopped me from drowning whilst I was in hospital, it made up for it because I was able to borrow the money knowing that I was getting money back.”
The money went towards petrol to and from hospital, gas and electricity bills and grocery shopping. Samantha is now also considering taking out Life Cover. "...my biggest fear in life is leaving first and not leaving my children with anything, I’ve been disabled all my life and it’s took me a lot to raise them on my own this is my way of saving up for them.”
When asked how she would rate her experience out of 5: “5, I was really made up, pleased with you. I’m trying to get my son with you he’s just started a job to be in a union.”
Charlene, 30, from Hampshire, who claimed on the insurance:
Charlene suffered a severe ankle fracture, the bones breaking in four places after falling off a ladder at work. She was hospitalised for five days, under this Accident Protection Plan, they would be paid £1,500.
Charlene liked that she could contact the claims team via email...“it was really fast, I did the whole thing online.”
She’s seven weeks into the recuperation process and with another six to go, it is a lengthy recovery. Receiving the payment meant peace of mind, knowing some of her bills can be paid.
When asked how she would rate her experience out of 5: “5+ has been brilliant, can’t improve on anything…wow, I’m gobsmacked with how fast the process was”
