With Arrivals Weekend on the horizon, we wanted to make you all aware of some things to look into prior to your arrival with us. Today we are looking at the insurance available within our accommodation and also how you can register with StudentCom for your internet.
Endsleigh insurance
The University of Exeter provides a basic level of insurance cover within the cost of accommodation. We strongly recommend that prior to arrival you check the policy details because it is important to find out exactly what you are covered for, as you may find that the contents cover is not sufficient and you need to extend it to protect all of your possessions both inside and outside of your room. In order to do this, please visit Endsleigh and enter one of the below policy numbers:
- HH1109F if you’re living in one of our UPP residences at: Lafrowda, Rowe House, St Germans, Birks Grange Village (self-catered) or Duryard.
- HH1134 if you are living within any other University of Exeter residences.
- If you are living within one of our nominated residences at either The Printworks, Point Exe, Northfield, Northernhay House or Clifton Place then you will need to contact these companies directly to find out information about their insurance policies.
Upon entering one of the policy numbers, you will be able to:
- Check what is covered
- Check key exclusions and limitations
- Check your policy excess
- Check how to make a claim
- Extend and personalise your cover to protect laptops, phones, musical instruments and other valuables
We recommend that you also view the 2017/18 Certificate of Insurance prior to your arrival.
