Income protection
Has anyone had issues, or can recommend a broker for insurance against life/critical illness & income protection (to cover mortgage payments) for someone with a race licence?
We have had one useful quote & I would like something to compare it too, the other quotes have been about 1/2 the price, but had have an exclusion for motorsport. Car is a 1.4 metro in circuit racing btw. Pete |

I have a little policy with Avon insurance http://www.avon-insurance.co.uk/accidental-death.htm that pays out if you are brown bread or have to have bits cut off and there was no exclusion for motorsport participation like all the others I looked at, wouldnt pay you fortunes but is only about 8 quid a month and better than nothing.

I took out life insurance with a mortgage and declared it. They asked a few question about what I race and what series and there was no problems.

You won't find exclusions on a life insurance policy, but you will on CI/PDB or IPB as Pistol Pete asked about.
I run an IFA practice and am not aware of any insurer currently offering such a plan to the masses. If they don't show a motorsport exclusion specific to you in the acceptance terms, then you should double check the policy for the general exclusions. |

I was a good boy when I took out my policies to go with my mortgage, the lift in premium for the life cover was £9/yr after I declared it.
My ar*e is now covered! (as they say) |

For sure you need to understand the differences in death and non-death benefits.
There cannot normally be exclusions on death, save suicide in the first 12 months, but there are always general policy exclusions for non-death benefits. |

I have had unemployment,accident cover,critical life cover for years (have had to use it a few times as well) and the company has been excellent.
They have always paid up when required. |
