    Cover for specified items

    You’ll need to tell us about any items worth more than £2,000, other than home appliances, and furniture which isn’t antique. These could include laptops, TVs, jewellery or bikes which would individually cost more than £2,000 to replace.

    You can also choose to cover specified items within your home, or both in and away from your home.

    Any specified items will be included as part of your overall contents sum insured amount. For items worth more than £2,000 individually, there’s a £20,000 individual item limit, and a £50,000 total specified items limit.

    Limits, terms and exclusions apply to all levels of cover.

  • To help you work out how much the contents in your home are worth:

    • List all of your contents in each room. Include things in outbuildings and within the boundaries of your property. Don't include fixtures and fittings such as bathroom suites or your fitted kitchen – these won’t be covered by your contents insurance policy
    • Estimate how much they’re worth. It helps to look online at how much it would cost to buy each item now if you had to replace it
    • Add up the values. The total is an estimated value for your possessions, which you can use to decide how much insurance cover you need.

What's covered as standard with Lloyds Bank

Whether you choose Bronze, Silver or Gold contents insurance, cover includes:

  • A safe place to stay if your home isn't fit to live in due to a claim. We'll pay the extra cost for you, your family and your household pets to stay somewhere similar
  • We'll repair or replace items in your home damaged by things like flood, fire, storm or vandalism, or replace items stolen from your home
  • Locks and keys are also covered. We’ll pay the cost of changing the locks to outside doors at your home if your keys are lost or stolen
  • Contents in outbuildings and in the open at your home are covered under all levels of cover
  • Repairs carried out by our approved tradespeople are guaranteed for at least 12 months
  • Bikes in your home are also covered as standard
  • Always here to help – our UK-based emergency helpline is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Limits, terms and exclusions apply to all levels of cover.

What isn’t covered?

There are some things that our contents insurance doesn’t cover:

  • Items held or used for business reasons, other than home office equipment and furniture
  • Theft from your home while anyone other than you and your family are staying there. However, we'll pay claims if force and violence was used to access/exit your home
  • Damage that happens as something gets older, known as 'wear and tear'. Most things in your home will suffer from this eventually
  • A claim as a result of a deliberate, malicious or unlawful act by you or your family.

Limits, terms and exclusions apply to all levels of cover.

Set an excess amount to suit you

Your excess is the amount you'll pay towards the cost of most types of claim. You can choose your own excess between £100 and £500. A higher excess means your cover will cost less, but you'll have to pay more towards a claim. The excess you will have to pay for some claims will be lower than your chosen excess.

With Bronze and Silver cover, there is a different excess for leaking water claims.
