Protecting the unexpected
Peace of mind when you need it most
If you are diagnosed as having one of the specific life-threatening conditions defined in your policy, critical illness insurance pays out a tax-free lump sum, giving you peace of mind when you need it most. When you suffer from a critical illness it can seriously affect you financially and the last thing you need is to face not being able to pay bills or make mortgage payments.
State pension
Amended pensions bill boosts entitlements
The government has amended its pensions bill to make it easier for people to boost the amount of state pension they are entitled to receive. To claim the full state pension, currently £90.70 a week, you must have built up a certain number of qualifying years during your working life. You can make up any years you may have missed, for example through child care or ill health, by making a voluntary National Insurance contribution, but the current rules say you can only make up the most recent six years of missing payments.
