Moneyextra helps you during financial planning week

This week is Financial Planning Week 21st -27th November and Moneyextra are here to help.

Financial Planning Week is part of a nationwide consumer awareness campaign. Organised by the institute of Financial Planning, the week aims to raise awareness to help consumers become financially fit.

Now in its 4th year, Financial Planning Week wants consumers to take positive action towards their finances.

Our Money Savings Team MST can help you save money and get a better idea on the following product areas:

 

• Gas & electricity
• Phone & broadband
• Life insurance
• Home insurance
• PPI claims
• Pension reviews

Gas and Electricity 
 
The cost of utilities is soaring and the summer price hikes added an average £200 to the duel fuel bill. Not only did this push up the rate of inflation for September, but it is also expected to pull thousands of households into fuel poverty. Our MTS have helped customers save an average of £150 on their gas and electricity bills.

Life insurance

Life insurance premiums could shoot up in the near future as a result of the European Union gender ruling for insurance. From 2012, gender will be banned as a deciphering factor for insurance policies. This could see life insurance premiums rocket by as much as 20% for women, according to the Financial Times. Now could be an ideal time to shop around for a good insurance policy.

Home Insurance

Home insurance premiums have also rocketed over the last year. One way you could save loads of cash is by switching and comparing the best home insurance policy for you. Our MTS could help you save hundreds.

Pension reviews

Pensions are under threat as the government squashes pensions for the public sector and the private sector is suffering at the hands of low annuity rates and high inflation. Pensions can be complex and as part of Financial Planning Week, our MST could help save you money on finding the right retirement plan for you.
