Travel Insurance

[badexcuseforanangler]

I was just reading the small print on the annual travel insurance policy and get this! I quote

Trips in the UK are not covered (see the definitons of "europe" and "UK"

 

Trip means any journey

 

Which starts and finishes in the uk to destinations outside of the uk

 

 

I'VE BEEN RIPPED OFF!

 

How can someone sell and policy that don't cover the uk?

 

I will name if im allowed too

Is your insurance policy for a holiday within the UK? not abroad?

[badexcuseforanangler]

Its for both will be having a skiing trip, trips to France to visit family but was planning a few trips away in the UK too

 

 

Feel its just another rip off by insurance companies

[Emz]

Well insurance companys are like that I found it odd that you would have required insurance for the uk (if you were holiday'ing abroad) but I suppose you'd want it if you are spending some time in another part of the country.

 

Read the small print before signing anything. A lesson I learned the hard way unfortunately oh well..

Depending on the circumstances you may have a "cooling off" period when you can cancel the cover without penalty. I'd take it up with the insurance company asap.

Im past the cooling off period and Ive already taken a trip Its the travel insurance via marbles credit card administed by UNAT Though it would be nice and easy to have them both together can see the credit card going through the shredder now

 

 

 

 

Will have to just take more trips abroad!
