Critical Illness Insurance serves as a lump sum payout in the event of a major health crisis, such as specific types of cancer, heart attack, or stroke. It offers financial protection in the event that you are diagnosed with one of the covered illnesses outlined in the policy. It’s important to note that not all severe illnesses are included in the policy, a point that insurers often face criticism for. However, your policy will contain more detailed information on the specific illnesses covered.
The lump sum received can be used for various purposes, including paying off a mortgage, covering medical expenses, or undertaking necessary home improvements. If you are looking for critical illness insurance in York, our team of expert protection and mortgage advisors in York is ready to assist you.
When considering Protection Advice in York, it’s advisable to consult with a qualified Protection Specialist before obtaining any type of coverage. Critical Illness Cover is more likely to be claimed than Life Insurance, making it potentially more expensive. Exploring mortgage advice in York can assist you in securing the most favorable deal.
The likelihood of surviving the types of conditions covered has increased compared to 30 years ago. However, if you unfortunately fall ill with any of these conditions, it can lead to financial hardship, particularly if you have a mortgage, children, or significant credit commitments.
In some cases, a claim may be rejected because the individual did not disclose specific health conditions during the application process. It’s important to note that this doesn’t apply to conditions that the claimant was unaware of or that were not present at the time of application.
The lump sum is paid out as long as the specified condition is mentioned in the policy, regardless of whether the individual is able to return to work or not. The lump sum is entirely at the discretion of the claimant. As a reputable mortgage broker in York, we often observe individuals using the funds to settle their mortgage, cover medical expenses, or make improvements to their home.
For insurance business we offer products from a range of insurers.

Chris Wardill was fantastic. Took all the stress out of the process, advising us and doing a significant amount of the admin and research that our house buying endeavour required. He was very amicable and knowledgeable, and made the process very straightforward for us.

Alex, my adviser, provided a very helpful and friendly service throughout my mortgage application. Communication was excellent, and I was kept fully informed of the progress at every stage. I genuinely think that Alex wants to find the best deal for his customers and was willing to put in the time and effort to achieve this. He was also flexible with appointments and phone calls, working around my availability, which made the process easier. I would definitely recommend Alex to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, helpful and approachable mortgage adviser.

I haven't given 5 stars because I don't believe that anything is perfect. But I can say that I received excellent service and great communication. Our house purchase was not straightforward but the mortgage application was made simple.
