The YourMoney.com Awards are the industry’s most sought-after accolade and this week the winners were revealed at our 25^th annual ceremony. See the winners’ photo gallery.

To remind you of the judging process, firms are first short-listed based on competitiveness of price and structure. Each category shortlist is then judged by a panel of readers who mystery shop each company and benchmark the quality of service provided in each product area.

Our readers ranked the Post Office as Best Over-50s Life Cover Provider, and Best Travel Insurance Provider for the third year running.

Ed Dutton, product portfolio director for financial services at the Post Office, said: “I’m delighted that we have won ‘Best Travel Insurance Provider’ for the third year in a row and to have won ‘Best over 50s Life Insurance Provider’.

“Customers value our competitive pricing, the range of different travel insurance covers that we can offer and our call agents who are on hand to provide information about what different life insurance products might be best suited to an individual’s needs.
