Checking your policy pays off, study finds

Motorhome owners often take out multiple insurance policies that overlap or leave key risks underinsured. In one case, a couple paid separately for awning cover that was already included in their motorhome policy, while their bicycles and luggage were only partly covered. Pricewise calculated in 2019 that one in three Dutch people had not updated their home contents insurance after its value changed. A survey by Overstappen.nl this year found that 32% of respondents had not insured their valuables or had insufficient cover. Jorn Alders, insurance specialist at Poliswijzer.nl, advises checking the policy schedule and maximum payouts against the current situation.
