This home contents insurance has been arranged for tenants and leaseholders of Jigsaw Group tenants and leaseholders by Aon through Aviva.
When you take out home contents insurance, your household goods and contents will be insured whilst in your home against events such as fire, theft or flooding. The insurance also covers the theft of your keys and the contents in your freezer. There is also cover for personal liability. There is no cover for wear and tear or mechanical breakdown.
All your home contents are covered by the policy on a ‘new for old’ basis, with the exception of linen and clothing which will be replaced at their current cost, less an amount for wear and tear. When you are working out the cost of your insurance, you will need to work out how much it will cost to replace the full contents.
If you undervalue your contents this will mean that if you claim you will not get the full value of your claim.
Please refer to the enclosed insurance product information document which details the main circumstances that are covered (e.g. fire, theft, water damage).
A specimen policy booklet is available on request.

Insurance starts when the provider informs you that you have been accepted into the scheme. Your provider will write to you with details of your insurance payments and the date when you should start paying. You will be notified in writing if, for any reason, you have not been accepted into the scheme.
If during the period of your insurance coverage your home is likely to be unoccupied (e.g. if you are in hospital, extended holiday) for more than 60 consecutive days you will have to advise the provider.
Remember, it is your responsibility to ensure that the sum insured is sufficient to cover all your household items and personal effects.
We urge all tenants and leaseholders to take out household insurance, either through our special scheme or by making your own arrangements.
