Feed: Planet big data. Author: Oliwia Berdak. My house is almost a hundred years old. And while it might have some lovely period features (often estate agent speak for dilapidation), it also requires constant care. This makes good home insurance vital. Because I am an insurance geek and cover insurance at Forrester, insurance companies that get me as a customer are rather unlucky, for I will scrutinize their policies, contracts, and services.
