got a pm yesterday of someone telling me to look into unemployment insurance due to redundancy.

Got a quote and for £49 per month, I will get something like £1440 tax free for upto 2 yrs. Only thing is you cannot make a claim within 60 days of taking out the policy

Good thing is, I havent been given an official letter yet saying that I am going to be made redundant and thats not due to october so I can do it

was looking into mainly though for the wife as she is on the redundancy watch, so was thinking she could have a policy (2yr) and if she does get made redundant she can have 2 yrs off with the little un and it wont affect us too much (should be okay for a year as we have mortgage protection so that will pay a % for a year for her)
