Lost all your freezer contents from power cuts during the storm? Financial experts reveal you could claim up to £1,000 from your home insurance

All white kitchen, fitted handleless units, limestone stone floor tiles, integrated freezer.

If you lost power during the recent storms across the UK, and as a result, your freezer content was left spoiled, you’ve probably been wondering if you can claim compensation from your network supplier. Unfortunately, the short answer is no - but what you can do is claim on your home insurance, according to experts.

Storm damage can be both devastating and unpredictable. While losing the contents of your freezer may not be as dramatic as your roof becoming damaged from harsh weather, it’s still frustrating and can equate to a couple of hundred pounds if you’ve lost a full family food shop.
