Ask our Support Team

Should I get Income Protection?

Ask yourself if you have enough savings to cover your income, should you find yourself unable to work through disability or ill-health. Could you survive on State Benefits alone? If not, then we recommend that you take out Income Protection.

Will I need a medical when applying for Income Protection?

Some Income Protection providers may require you to have a medical before they agree to cover you. Others may request a GP report.

Can you have two Income Protection policies?

We strongly recommend taking professional advice before taking out additional protection. There is a risk of being over-insured and paying for cover that you may not be able to claim on. 

In the event of a claim, how would the insurance claim be paid?

The income from a claim will be paid directly into your bank account. This will be paid either up to a specified age, or to retirement, whichever was selected at the outset.

How long does it take to set up an Income Protection policy?

 Where the client is below a certain age, in good health and is applying for a sum assured below a specified level, a policy could be applied for online. Cover could also start as soon as terms are accepted by the applicant.

WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM INCOME PROTECTION BENEFIT?

The maximum cover you can have is up to 70% of your gross income. However, as the benefit paid is tax-free, you can replace a high percentage of your income should you need to claim. 

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE COST OF INCOME PROTECTION INSURANCE?

The cost of an Income Protection policy is calculated from several factors, such as age, lifestyle, health, work, whether you smoke.

WHAT DOES INCOME PROTECTION NOT COVER?

Income Protection does not cover illness or injury lasting less than the policy's deferred period. It will not pay out indefinitely for disability. You will not be covered in the event of redundancy or dismissal.

An Income Protection Policy is designed to protect your income if you are unable to work as a result of disability or ill health.

"I get satisfaction about having ‘real’ conversations with people about why having the right cover in place is so important. I also take a lot of comfort from knowing that our clients are covered should the worst happen."

“Arranging mortgages for my clients impacts positively on their lives, and gives me immense job satisfaction. When a client returns for repeat business, or refers family and friends to me, I know that I have done a great job.”
