Crooks share their secrets

Insurers should keep an eye on the video sharing website YouTube. The Sun reported this week that burglars were posting tips on how to break into homes. One video showed a crook making a skeleton key, while another – which has been removed by YouTube – detailed techniques that left no signs of forced entry. The Sun warned that victims may not receive pay-outs from their insurers if there appeared to be no signs of a break in.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
