Paymentshield adds UKG to landlord’s insurance panel

Paymentshield has added UK General Insurance (UKG) to its landlord’s insurance panel.

Paymentshield’s landlord insurance product is already Defaqto 5-star rated and provides a range of features and benefits, such as alternative accommodation for tenants, new for old replacement and malicious damage cover as standard.

Rob Evans (pictured), chief executive at Paymentshield, said: “At Paymentshield we work closely with insurers to deliver our advisers with the best quality panel that offers a wide scope of coverage, competition on price and the peace of mind that, should their clients ever need to make a claim, they will receive an unrivalled experience.

“The addition of UKG to our landlord’s insurance panel, will support all of these things and provide advisers with a great opportunity to talk about general insurance with their landlord clients.”

Matthew Schofield, chief commercial officer at UKG, added: “The right insurance cover is crucial in protecting a landlord’s investment, particularly in the current environment when margins on buy-to-let are squeezed and we’re really pleased to be launching onto Paymentshield’s Landlord’s Insurance panel, which offers 5-star rated Defaqto cover supported by excellent technology.”

The landlord insurance panel also includes AXA, Legal & General, RSA and Geo Underwriting.

UKG already works with Paymentshield on its home insurance panel and tenants contents insurance panel.
