Uk homeowners are too apathetic when it comes to insuring their homes properly, according to Primary Direct.

In its survey of 1,000 homeowners, 53% knew they didn't have to take up the home insurance deal offered by their mortgage provider, but had taken it anyway because they were too “uninvolved” to find a better option. Around 57% were also aware they could move their home insurance without changing their mortgage arrangements.

Many householders felt the savings in shopping around were too small to bother with.

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.
