Home Insurance is available electronically via EDI
The profile of the modern homeowner is changing. So we’ve reviewed our Home Insurance to ensure that the protection we provide really meets those changing needs.
Independent financial product research company, Defaqto, has rated our home insurance Five Stars for its features and benefits.
We’ve increased cover limits and introduced new benefits - such as cover for the possessions of family members living in care homes, and business equipment cover increased to £10,000.
And when you recommend Ecclesiastical as a Home Insurance provider, we know that our service reflects on you. That’s why, when your customer buys an Ecclesiastical Home Insurance policy, we do everything we can to ensure that we work with you and your customers promptly, and in a professional and sensitive manner.

How to place your Home Insurance business
As part of our ongoing commitment to product and service improvements, we are now asking you to place all new business through the EDI systems or via our home insurance through schemes arrangements, and are no longer accepting new manual business through our regional offices.
This allows you to benefit from the dedicated home insurance support and service from our E-commerce and schemes teams.
