Youi offers COVID-19 home insurance discount

In response to changes in the way Australian’s live and work, Youi is now offering its home insurance customers temporary financial relief.

The insurer will provide a 10% refund on home insurance premiums for new and existing customers for a three-month period. Youi chief executive, Hugo Schreuder said the move was made considering the current reduced risk of home burglary or property damage.

“Because many of our customers are spending more time at home at the moment, their homes are safer,” he said. “So the fair thing to do is to support them as much as possible by passing on our savings to them.”

Youi claims it’s the first insurer to present such an offer. Alongside this announcement, the company has also extended its car insurance premium relief for all new and existing customers. Those driving less due to the pandemic can access a 10% discount on their policies for three months, in addition to the original three-month 15% cashback discount launched in April.
