Did any of you guys get the Newsletter?
I can't believe what is on offer A personal Accident Scheme for wfp window cleaners, £78.75 per year will give you a tax free benefit of £250.00 per week for 104 weeks. Personally i think it very good value. 18 months ago i was quoted £38.00 a month to get a benefit of £300.00 for 52 weeks...............??? what do you think?

Yep, I saw that too, if it is what it says it is, it is very very good.

Theres this on their website:

"Alexander Swan Launch
NEW EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL ACCIDENT SCHEME
for Water Fed Pole Window Cleaners, including those using Ladders.
Historically, window cleaners have been viewed as “high risk” by most insurers.
Alexander Swan have negotiated exclusive terms for our window cleaning clients with premium rates more akin to those for clerical workers.

Being out of work for any length of time following an accident can have disastrous consequences, especially for the self employed so we are pleased to be able to offer a low cost solution.

For example a premium of just £78.75 per year will secure a tax free benefit of £250.00 per week for a maximum period of 104 weeks.
Quotes are quick and easy so give us a call."

Looks like a no-brainer to me.
