Want to cancel your renewal?

If you'd like to cancel your renewal, you can use our online services to do this up to 4 working days before your cover is due to end.

You’ll be taken to our renewals page where you can access your policy using the policy number. Don't worry if you see reference to ‘payment’, this is just the first step of the process - you won’t pay anything to cancel your renewal.

Would you like to renew your policy online?

About three weeks before the renewal date of your home insurance policy, we'll send you a handy pack with all the details on how to renew your policy.

The pack will include a schedule summarising:

• The cover and price of your policy
• Details of the home insured
• Details of any optional extras you've chosen

Check this carefully as we'll base your renewal offer on this information.

• You can still cancel your insurance but there’s a £25 cancellation fee.
• We’ll refund any money you’ve paid, minus a charge for the time you’ve been covered.
