How our Voucher Rewards work: When you take out cover through Blue Light Insurance Solutions you are eligible for our voucher reward offer. The amount of your voucher is calculated by the size of your first monthly insurance policy premium, rounded up to the nearest £5. For example, if your policy premium was £46.50 per month, you would get a voucher reward worth £50.00. The voucher reward is payable only when your policy goes active and is issued 3 calendar months after your policy start date by email, using the same email address you used when you applied for cover with us. Maximum voucher reward per postcode is £150.00. If you allow your policy to lapse, or if the policy is in arrears prior to the intended voucher issuance date, then the voucher will be withheld until the policy is live and all payments are brought up to date. If for any other reason the insurer removes your policy from active status or your policy is in review, or further information is being assessed by underwriters before the intended voucher issuance date, the voucher will be withheld until the policy is “live” and premiums are paid and up to date again. Offer does not apply to "Private Medical Insurance", "Accident, Sickness & Unemployment Cover" or "Guaranteed Acceptance Life Insurance" plans.
What is Critical Illness Insurance for?
Critical Illness Insurance is designed to pay a lump sum (or sometimes an income) in the event you are diagnosed with a serious illness (e.g. cancer, heart conditions, strokes, multiple sclerosis and more). It's usually used to provide financial support or to help pay off debts such as a mortgage. When you take out Critical Illness Insurance, you cover yourself for a set amount (e.g. £50,000) over a set period of time (e.g. 25 years).
Does the money pay as a lump sum, or an income?
This depends on the type of policy you choose. Most Critical Illness Insurance policies are designed to pay out as a one-off lump. However you can also take out policies that are designed to pay you an ongoing income instead. Our team can help you decide what it right for you.
Are my children covered too?
In most cases yes, but you do need to be careful here. Again the levels of children's cover varies hugely from insurer to insurer. Some insurers offers very good cover for children, and others don't. Our team of experts can help you understand exactly how children's cover works, and what they will or won't be covered for with the insurer they recommend.
What illnesses am I covered for?
This varies hugely from insurer to insurer, and for this reason it's vitally important that you speak to a qualified adviser, as they can help you understand how a basic policy compares to a high quality policy. Most policies cover the most serious conditions as a minimum (E.g. cancers, heart conditions and strokes) however ALWAYS make sure to look at the T&C's to understand the insurers definition of condition. Our team of experts can help you navigate this very important, but complex product.
Will my insurer try to wriggle out of a claim?
It is a common misconception that insurers do their best to avoid paying claims. In fact, insurers have to publish their claims statistics each year and the vast majority can prove they pay well over 90% of their Critical Illness Insurance claims.
Can I get Critical Illness Insurance through my employer?
Some employers do offer Critical Illness Insurance. Whilst this is a brilliant benefit (if you are lucky enough to be offered it) you shouldn't necessarily rely on it entirely. Remember that if you leave your current employer, you'll leave your insurance behind too, and critical illness insurance gets more difficult and expensive to take out the older you get. Our recommendation is to always have some personal cover in place too!

How our Free Will Kits work: In the event you purchase a policy through Blue Light Insurance Solutions you will be eligible for a free will writing kit. Upon request we will send a will writing kit to you in the post no later than 14 working days following such request. Only one will kit per postcode. Will writing is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.
How our premium discounts work: We apply a 10% “commission sacrifice” to all Life Insurance, Critical Illness Cover and Income Protection quotes, thereby reducing the standard commission levels we receive from the insurers, which leads to a reduction in your monthly premium. The discount will apply for the lifetime of your policy. Please note a 10% commission sacrifice will not result in a 10% reduction in insurance premium as the commission we receive only makes up a proportion of your monthly premium. The actual reduction in premium will depend on several factors including, but not limited to, the size of premium, and the commission levels offered to us by the chosen insurer. Offer does not apply to "Private Medical Insurance", "Accident, Sickness & Unemployment Cover" or "Guaranteed Acceptance Life Insurance" plans.
