We will contact you every 12 months for you to review the suitability of your policy. If you bought an annual policy, we will provide details concerning your renewal in plenty of time prior to the anniversary of your policy. Unless you wish to cancel your insurance coverage with us, you need do nothing more and your policy will automatically renew on the anniversary date using the payment details we have on file.

Payments can be made using a credit or debit card, or alternatively, via PayPal. All payments are processed on an annual basis.

Insurance Premium Tax is a government tax on various types of insurance policy including car, home, and travel which every insurance provider has to charge. Government changes to IPT could unavoidably increase your quote.

With our No Price Hike Promise, your premiums won't go up when you renew—so you get peace of mind and predictable costs. The only exception is if the Insurance Premium Tax (IPT) increases; in that case, your premium will only change by the exact amount of the IPT adjustment. We're committed to fair, transparent pricing, so you'll never face any unexpected surprises.

Yes, proof of purchase is required to validate your appliance insurance claim. Here are some acceptable forms of proof:

Receipt: A copy of the original receipt from the retailer showing the purchase details.
Invoice: An invoice that includes the appliance details, purchase date, and retailer information.
Order Confirmation: An email confirmation of your order if the appliance was purchased online.
Contact the Retailer: If you no longer have the receipt or invoice, reach out to the retailer where you purchased the appliance. They may be able to retrieve your purchase details from their records.
Bank or Credit Card Statements: If you used a bank card or credit card for the purchase, you can provide a copy of the transaction from your statements. While this may not serve as formal proof of purchase, it can help establish that the purchase was made.

If you have any questions about acceptable proof of purchase or need assistance, feel free to contact our customer service team at 020 3882 8775. We’re here to help!

The cost of a repair depends on the type of breakdown and the appliance involved, so it’s difficult to provide an exact price upfront. However, Wintarsons ensures that repair costs are kept as low as possible by working with a trusted network of engineers who offer competitive rates. Here’s how it works:

Per-Claim Limit: Each claim is covered up to the per-claim limit specified in your Policy Schedule.
Excess: If your policy includes an excess, you will need to pay this amount for each claim before the insurance covers the rest.
Discounted Repair Costs: Wintarsons leverages its network of engineers to secure better-than-market repair costs, ensuring you get great value.

For example:
If your per-claim limit is £1,500 and the repair cost is £400, the claim will be fully covered (minus any applicable excess).
If the repair cost exceeds your per-claim limit, you will need to pay the difference.

An emergency is a sudden and unexpected incident that impacts on your ability to go about your day to day life as normal. It is an issue that needs resolving urgently. If you were to lose your keys and couldn’t get into your own house, for example, you’d need to sort that out right away; if there was a sudden leak, you’d need to patch things up as soon as possible to avoid flooding and further problems that could make your home uninhabitable.

The amount of the contribution will be £250.
