Most Commonly Asked Questions about Travel Insurance
Though much is written about choosing and buying travel insurance, some questions still come to many people's minds
What happens if I have an emergency abroad
You or the hospital that is treating you should contact the 24 hour Emergency Assistance Service
This service will confirm your cover and handle all negotiations on your behalf.
If it is a minor injury treatable by a GP or local hospital, you can settle the bill yourself and claim this back. Contact the 24 hour emergency services before any claim.
Am I covered for Emergency Repatriation
The policy cover includes the cost of return to your country of residence within the European Union if the return is medically necessary.
You'll be carried either by air ambulance or other medically appropriate means in accordance with the Insurer's medical advisers opinion.
Additional cover for clients who hold Australian, New Zealand or South African passports can be arranged.
Which countries can I travel to with my insurance
Our geographical limits are: The Continent of Europe west of the Ural Mountains including UK, Madeira, Canary Islands, Iceland, Republic of Ireland, the Azores and Non European countries bordering the Mediterranean (Except Israel, Lebanon, Libya and Syria)
Worldwide Excluding - USA, Canada, Caribbean, Mexico and Japan Worldwide Including - USA, Canada, Caribbean, Mexico and Japan
Can non-UK residents purchase your travel insurance
Yes. Our policies are available to residents of all EU countries. We also provide cover for Australian, New Zealand and South African passport holders who are temporary residents in EU countries.
What is the maximum length of any one trip I can take on an annual multi-trip policy
For people aged up to 65, our annual policies can cover for trips of 17, 31, 45, 60, 90 or 120 days duration on any single trip. Policies with trip duration of 45 days or more will also allow 17 days Winter Sports activities free of charge.
Can I cancel my travel insurance
We provide a 14-day cooling-off period in which you are entitled to a refund of your premium if you have a genuine reason. Your disinclination to travel or refusal of a visa application is not a reason for cancellation.
When can I book Insurance
It is best to book your insurance as soon as you have booked and paid for your holiday. This will then give you cancellation cover should you not be able to travel.
Can I extend my cover whilst I am away
Yes. You must either purchase another policy online, or contact us. But, you must arrange the additional cover before the original policy expires as a gap in cover is not permitted.
I have made my own travel arrangements, not on a package; can I still take out insurance
Yes, you can buy your travel insurance policy, no matter what your travel arrangements are.
As you see, purchasing travel insurance is clear and easy. My trip
