Combined Launch New Website

COMBINED INSURANCE LAUNCHES NEW INTERACTIVE WEBSITE

Combined Insurance, the specialist accident and health insurer, today announces the launch of its new website, offering customers information and advice, quotes and an interactive budgeting tool to help manage their finances.

With Combined Insurance research showing the majority of the population are able to last just 17 days should they lose their income through illness or injury, and with more than three in four workers currently holding no income protection, the new website (www.combinedinsurance.co.uk) includes a comprehensive information section offering consumers simple tips and advice on accident prevention, state benefits and entitlements, as well as information on the options available to particular groups including families, amateur sportspeople, the self-employed and construction workers.

Nigel Brittle at Combined Insurance says: “In today’s market, competitive advantage is all about giving customers greater choice. Supporting the strength of our comprehensive face to face and telephone service, our new-look website now has enhanced interactive features and provides 24/7 customer service.

Our own research shows the extent to which today’s costs of living leave millions of British families exposed financially to unforeseen events . With little time to budget and plan, our interactive cost of living calculator will help people see just how exposed they are, and how long they could survive should they lose their income through illness or injury.”

Key features include:

• Interactive financial calculator (www.combinedinsurance.co.uk/finances)
• Accessibility for people with disabilities
• Online help centre
• Access to claims forms
• Information on preventing accidents, state benefits and benefits for individuals and families
• Video interviews with customers
