Direct Line Home Insurance offer

UK report:

A new Direct Line Home Insurance offer of one-third off policies may be of interest to consumers who are trying to save money in the new year, the firm has claimed.

Andrew Lowe, head of Direct Line Home Insurance, said that the savings made from taking up the offer could counteract "the big Christmas spend".

"By taking advantage of offers such as ours, homeowners can save a whopping third off home insurance and still have peace of mind that they are fully covered should they need to make a claim," he remarked.

Some of the cover and benefits provided by Direct Lind home insurance include garden cover for up to £1,000, up to £1,000,000 buildings cover and replacement goods brought to customers' doors.

In October 2007, Direct Line introduced residential insurance aimed at buy-to-let owners and investors who have up to five properties.
