OUR SERVICE
We are an Independent Insurance intermediary specializing in Bed & Breakfast, Guest House and Holiday Home Insurance. Our service includes: advising and making a recommendation to you after we have assessed your needs (ewith the exception of Commercial Legal Expenses which is a non-advised sale); arranging your Insurance cover with insurers to meet your requirements; and helping you with any ongoing changes you have to make. As part of our service we will assist you with any claim that you need to make.

We offer a range of personal and commercial insurance products. For home insurance we select from a limited number of insurers whom we have selected for value and service. We can provide you with a list of insurers we offer insurance from if you require this information. For our Bed & Breakfast, Guest House and Holiday Home Insurance, known as "Sleepeasy" we deal with one insurer and the policy is underwritten by Norwich Union Insurance. We have delegated authority to issue policies for this product. For all other insurances, we will generally contact one insurer but will advise you where this is not the case.

YOUR DUTY TO PROVIDE INFORMATION
It is your responsibility to provide complete and accurate information to insurers when you take out your insurance policy, throughout the life of your policy, and when you renew your insurance. It is important that you ensure all statements you make on proposal forms, claim forms and other documents are full and accurate. Please note that if you fail to disclose any material information to your insurers, this could invalidate your cover and could mean that part or all of a claim may not be paid.

INFORMATION ON COSTS
We will provide you with separate premiums for each of the individual products and services that we are offering.

We will normally accept payment by guaranteed cheque. You may be able spread your payments through insurers' instalment schemes or a credit agreement through ourselves. We will give you full information about your payment options when we discuss your insurance in detail.

In addition to the premium charged by insurers we normally make the following charges to cover administration. Renewals and arranging new policies £10. Express Service charge £15. Upon cancellation of a policy any refund will be paid net of a £10 cancellation fee. Fees already paid at the outset of a policy are non-refundable. This is in addition to any cancellation charges made by insurers.

We may be entitled to receive profit share from insurance providers.

CLIENT MONEY/RISK TRANSFER
Lyon Insurance Services Ltd act as agent of insurers for the collection of premium. This means that our premiums are treated as being received by the insurer when received in our bank account and the insurer will bear the risk for any losses that may arise from the failure of our firm.


Lyon Insurance Services hold insurer monies in a trust account which means that whilst we have legal ownership over such monies, this remains for the beneficial ownership of our clients.


RENEWALS/CANCELLATION
You may be entitled to cancel your policy within 14 days of policy inception or receiving full documentation, details of which will be given to you when you take out your policy.
Where you pay your premium by direct debit on policies other than "Sleepeasy" insurers will automatically renew your policy unless you advise us to the contrary.
Certificates and other policy documentation will not be released to you until we are in full payment of the policy premium(s). In these circumstances we will ensure that you receive full details of your insurance cover and will provide you with any documents that you are required to have by law.
