How short term income protection insurance works

Income protection is a monthly payment paid directly to you, in addition to any other benefits such as statutory sick pay, which helps you keep up with your monthly outgoings.
With Confused.com it couldn’t be easier to set up your income protection policy.

You can choose:

  • The circumstances you want to cover to protect your bills, lifestyle, income and mortgage
  • The length of time before benefits are paid to you when a claim is made – from 14 days to 180 days
  • How long you want the cover to pay for – up to a maximum of 24 months
  • How much you want to cover from, as little as £100 to £2500 per month

Just enter your details to return prices from a panel of income protection specialists who will quote for your specific requirement.

Thanks to all at confused.com. You found me a company who have given me the same cover as my old company at £90 cheaper.
