Hi all
Just a quick question about double insuring. Is it possible to take out double insurance on a propoerty? That is take out 2 insurance policies on a property, (irrespective of the type of insurance - buildings/landlord) with 2 seperate companies? That way you can claim from 2 insurance companies as opoosed to 1.
So if you have a claim and one insurer does not fully cover a insured loss for whatever reason, one can then claim against the 2nd insurer? I see it as a possible way of hedging ones bets.
What do people think? Is this doable? Is there anything preventing someone doing this?
Thanks
