An interesting discovery today.
My Travel insurance is due for renewal in a couple of weeks (coverforyou -AXA) but we are going away tomorrow for 2 months so I thought I'd renew. Renewal was actually up from £110 to £152 this year for a 62 day trip/Europe only policy. I found another policy for £122 and that included the whole world! (Greatcover.com) Last year we had to buy an additional policy for 2 weeks in the Caribbean which cost £45 so this made sense)
So I cancelled my current policy renewal and took out the new policy. However, on examining the details I discovered you had to have a return journey booked or you are not covered. We tend not to do this to allow flexibility.
I checked my current insurance and could not find that stipulation anywhere. So, cancel new insurance, ring up old insurance and beg to be taken again at the original price (discount included for staying)
An interesting discovery to be aware of and I was glad it spotted in time. Very impressed with coverforyou customer services. Pity about the price increase though. Still by far the cheapest I could find for 62 days though.
