LONDON, June 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Allianz Your Cover is one of the very few insurers that do not hit their policyholders with 'hidden' fees, according to research by the consumer organisation, Which?

Which? research found that many insurers are imposing hidden fees on customers for the most basic home and car insurance policy changes and even charging to renew a policy with the same insurer.

Allianz Your Cover came out very favourably in the Which? research as the insurer does not make charges for making mid-term adjustments such as a change of name or address.

Andy James, Head of Direct, Allianz Your Cover said: "The customer is at the heart of our business and the Which? report highlights that people should ask their insurer or broker about fees for policy changes before they take out motor and household insurance."
