Home and Contents Insurance
Your home and contents policy should be flexible enough to meet your needs, whilst being as affordable as possible. This is something you can be confident with when you insure with EBM together with our personal service and the support we provide. With EBM Home and Contents Insurance you get the option of how much excess the policy includes, as well as the choice between cover for 'defined events' or 'accidental damage' or both.
Your home and contents insurance includes a number of special features and benefits negotiated by EBM which are automatically built in to your policy for no extra cost. Please refer to your policy documentation to determine which policy applies to you (“Accidental Damage” or “Insured Events”).
