income protection as I was the main provider. So pleased I did as I recently have had a health scare. The insurance cover has

recovery.'

“Can’t thank Claire Taylor at Protego enough for the advice and guidance she has given me not only with the mortgage side
of things but also with the critical illness cover/protection. We always think it won’t happen to me I won’t need it or it’s too
expensive and they won’t pay out if I make a claim. Unfortunately, I was diagnosed at the beginning of this year with stage
3 breast cancer which had spread to my spine. I contacted Aviva and Zurich who I had policies with and I was extremely
fortunate both companies gave me a pay out, I was also able to claim for my hospital stay of 4.5 weeks. I am 41 years old
mortgage free with a house being built overseas. Thanks once again Claire for all your help and support it has been greatly
appreciated.”

‘All of us would like to thank you for advising me and N to take out the critical illness cover which had proved to be such a help to us. As you know I had a heart attack in late 2008 and as I had a critical illness cover under which heart attack was listed as a critical illness, I made a claim to Scottish Provident with whom our policy was. They were very helpful and understanding throughout the claim process and the claim was paid out in full without any delay from their side.
I used to be very untrusting of these insurance companies but was proved wrong, I eventually paid off whole of my mortgage along with a bit of extra cash in the bank. This has taken such a big financial burden off our shoulders and also has given us a huge peace of mind in this current economic environment. I was lucky enough to go back to work within 3 months but it could have been worse.
I would advise people not to judge themselves by their age thinking nothing can happen to them, as in my case I was only 40 when I had the heart attack. You may be healthy today but you never know’AA & NA July 2010
