Mortgage protection/income protection/life insurance??

Hi

I'm just buying a house and have been advised to get some sort of income or mortgage insurance for myself and my partner.

What have other people done? Gone for income or for mortgage protection insurance? Or have you just gone for a death benefit from life insurance?

I'm very confused what to do!

I know that you have to plan for the unfortunate - I've seen a dear friend struggle with getting a sudden and life changing illness which means they will never work again and what that has done to their family.

Any advice welcome.

I went for all of it! Probably a mistake especially as I get income protection with work but it was affordable, definitely something I need to look into more.

Hmmm, problem is, they don't like to pay out when you try to make a claim.
