To help customers better protect themselves financially, should the worst happen, Barclays is encouraging customers to review their protection needs and is offering three months cashback to customers who purchase a life insurance policy between 21 April and 1 June 2012.

Kieran Murphy, Managing Director, Barclays Insurance said:

“Life insurance and knowing your family are protected is really valuable and obtaining the right level of cover needn’t be too costly. We know that household budgets are really tight at the moment, but it’s important that protection needs don’t slip down the list of priorities.”
