Package policy · sections · gaps in cover
a.s.r.'s personal general insurance range is built up from separate sections on a single policy schedule. The question is not whether the package looks complete, but whether each section on its own gives the right cover.

A personal general insurance package bundles separate policies under one policy number: home contents, buildings, liability, car, legal expenses and travel. Bundling gives you an overview and usually a package discount, but it changes nothing about the cover: each section has its own conditions, its own sum insured, its own excess and its own exclusions.
That is precisely why claims come unstuck at the boundary between sections. Your phone falling out of your coat pocket on holiday is not home contents damage at home but a matter for the travel or valuables cover. Water from a burst pipe is buildings damage for the repair of the pipe and home contents damage for the floor covering. Damage your child causes at someone else's house is liability. The same incident affecting your own belongings is not.
With home contents cover, pay attention to underinsurance: if the sum insured has been set too low, even a small loss is paid proportionately. A contents value calculator or a valuation prevents that. For jewellery, art and collections there is almost always a sub-limit; if you want to insure these in full, a valuables insurance the appropriate route.
This page deals with one situation. The full overview is on Compare personal liability insurance (AVP).
Four points on which a package policy works out differently from what people expect.
Within the home contents cover, lower maximums apply to jewellery, audiovisual equipment, cash and items in a shed, outbuilding or on the balcony. The total sum insured therefore says little about what you receive for a specific loss. Check those partial amounts before you sign and increase them where necessary with additional cover.
Damage to property in your care is excluded on virtually every liability policy: your neighbour's borrowed tools, the hired trailer, your employer's laptop. Some policies make a limited exception for a place where you are staying or a holiday home you have rented. This differs from company to company and it is one of the points on which we compare.
A legal expenses section carries a waiting period of several months and covers no disputes arising from an event before the start date. If you take out cover because a conflict is already running, there is no cover. Tax and business disputes also fall outside a personal section.
Renovating, letting through a rental platform, starting a business at home or installing solar panels changes the risk. If you fail to report this, the insurer may invoke Articles 7:928 and 7:930 of the Dutch Civil Code and reduce the payout. During a renovation, part of the risk also shifts to the contractor and their insurance.
Insurers weigh these details differently. That is where your saving is.
What is covered
| Situation | Basic package | Extended package |
|---|---|---|
| Your child knocks the television off the cabinet at a classmate's house | Yes | Yes |
| Your washing machine leaks and the ceiling of the flat below has to be replaced | Yes | Yes |
| Your electric bicycle is stolen at the station | No | Provided that |
| Your suitcase comes off the baggage belt badly damaged | No | Provided that |
| A dispute with the contractor who fitted your bathroom improperly | No | Provided that |
| Groundwater rising through the cellar and ruining the floor finish | No | No |
A package is not cover in itself: what you receive depends on the sections that actually appear on the policy schedule.
This is what people ask us most.
Usually yes, because of the package discount and a single set of paperwork. The benefit disappears as soon as one section gives too little cover and you only notice when you claim. So we compare section by section and set the outcome against separate policies with other companies. Sometimes the package wins, sometimes a combination does.
As a rule, sections can be cancelled separately at the contract renewal date or, after the first year, with a short notice period. Bear in mind that the package discount on the remaining sections may then fall. Do not cancel anything before the replacement cover has been definitively accepted, or you will be left uninsured in the meantime.
Only to a limited extent. Most policies provide temporary cover for contents elsewhere, often only against named events such as fire and theft following forced entry, and with a lower maximum. Loss of or damage to luggage while travelling belongs on the travel cover. For valuable items you regularly take with you, valuables insurance is the watertight solution.
For damage you cause yourself to the rented property, yes, for example fire or water damage. Some liability policies cover tenant's liability, others only after an express extension. Damage to your own contents falls under the home contents cover. When you apply, ask explicitly how these two relate to each other in the policy being proposed.
