COVER TO GET YOU BACK LIVING LIFE
We know you want to get back on your feet as quickly as you can after an illness or injury.
Bounceback Cover from our Recover Cover range of recovery and life insurance products means if something goes wrong, you’ll have a fast payout* to help you recover – your way. So, if you need an Uber Comfort for your broken leg, special treatments or therapies, or a little extra time off work – we’ve got you covered.
“HCF’s Bounceback Cover was incredibly helpful, it actually saved my life financially for a moment. I hurt my shoulder, a tear, in a volleyball injury. I work for a transport company so couldn’t work with the injury, and I didn’t have income insurance. I’m 25 so hadn’t got that yet and it was really hard to go from a full-time wage to nothing. I’m so glad I had cover as things would have been really tough if I didn’t have it, and I wouldn’t have been able to recover as well. It was super easy to claim on, it was amazing.”
