Which? Income Protection Quotes
Frequently asked questions
Income protection insurance can provide an income if you’re unable to work through sickness or injury and if you're signed off work by a doctor - covering your essential outgoings.
You’re more likely to be off work due to sickness or injury than you are to pass away before retirement. Whilst you may receive sick pay from your employer, not everybody does and some people overestimate how much they get. Income protection can provide that financial safety net.
Income protection covers you for most illnesses that leave you unable to work: stress-related illnesses, back conditions, cancer or a serious heart condition. The focus is on not being able to work, as opposed to the illness or injury you’ve sustained.
You won’t be covered for pre-existing and chronic conditions that you knew about before taking out your policy, alcohol or drug misuse, criminal acts, cosmetic surgery or redundancy.
Income protection policies can be divided into two general types: short-term and long-term. A short-term policy, as its name implies, only gives you an income for a present limited time, such as 12 or 24 months. Long-term policies pay you for as long as the policy allows, which might be right through to your retirement or a longer set period, such as to age 70.
Of course. Income protection insurance is available to self-employed, primary carers, part-time workers, contractors and more; our expert advisers can provide you with a tailored quote.
Even if you have some difficulty proving your income, there are plenty of options available.
