Rugby Fans Warned to Avoid Foul Play This Saturday | Cheap Car Insurance and Home Insurance from Confused.com

Confused.com, the UK's leading insurance price comparison service is warning England World Cup rugby fans not to become a victim during Saturday night's final.

Following England's surprise 14-9 semi-final victory against France, tens of thousands of rugby fans are expected to converge on Paris this Saturday for the World Cup final against South Africa. And while thousands more will be cheering on the team from pubs and rugby clubs across England, burglars could be lifting silverware from homes up and down the country.

Debra Williams, Managing Director, Confused.com warned: 'With the final taking place at 8 o'clock in the evening, it will be glaringly obvious who is in and out unless you think ahead and leave your lights on to reduce the likelihood of becoming a victim. Many fans will be making a day of the final and could easily forget to lock doors, shut windows and activate security alarms before heading out.'

'By taking these simple steps you could reduce the risk of being burgled, avoid subsequent increases in home insurance premiums and prevent a sorry end to the evening, whatever the result. Our message is simple; lock-up before you leave.'
