Mortgage life insurance

Tesco Mortgage Life Insurance offers great value cover to help pay off your repayment mortgage.

We provide a cash sum if you die within the period of cover. The cash sum is designed to reduce in line with a standard repayment mortgage.

Clubcard customers only - if you quote before 12th November 2008 and then buy the policy we'll send you £50 worth of Tesco vouchers. Read the terms and conditions.

£50 off shopping or fuel

Should I consider this life cover?

You should consider this cover if…

You have a repayment mortgage (paying off the original mortgage loan and the interest).

You should NOT consider this cover if…

You have an interest only mortgage - monthly payments cover the interest only. The original mortgage loan would remain outstanding at the end of the period of cover.

Even if this isn't the right cover for you we might still be able to help, take a look at our fixed-term life insurance instead.

Can I add critical illness cover?

You can add critical illness to your Mortgage Life Insurance policy. Find out more about adding critical illness cover to your policy.

What about joint life cover?

Our joint life cover provides a reducing cash sum if either of the two lives covered dies during the period of cover. Joint life cover only pays out once on the first death.

Is terminal illness covered?

Yes. If you're diagnosed with a terminal illness during the period of cover, excluding the last 18 months, you'll receive a reducing cash payment. This is automatically included as part of the policy.
