Holiday insurance!

[TWR]

Anyone used a particular company that has given good service & what are the costs?

Thanks in advance.

I get mine from Lloyds Bank (with my bank account, but you can buy it separately) and they paid out OK when I had to make a claim.

I realised a few years ago that we got free holiday insurance with our bank account. It's RBS Royalties Gold. Maybe worth a look. I used to pay out every time we went away before someone else told me.

Thank you for your answers, I will keep searching. Boxtops, what price did Lloyds come up with?

I got ours at John Lewis travel insurance this week, hubby is a bit 'older' so always have to pay more, and it was very reasonable in comparison.

just a note to those with travel insurance with your bank accounts - check the terms and conditions of the provision of the travel insurance - i have known cases where travel insurance is not provided because the holiday was not paid for using the card the account is with.

Ie if you pay for your holiday by credit card, and then try to claim from your lloyds bank account, it may not be covered - just something worth checking

bennhougton -you give great advice pity your user name is the same name as your company -I know times are hard.......i'm surprised no-one else has noticed to be honest and also you only joined today.
Never mind its cheap advertising I suppose as opposed to paying like everyone else has to do -cheeky lol:)

[bennhoughton]

Er Dris, my company name is not Benn Houghton - my company name is something else.....? Which if you have been researching on me like you appear to have been, you would surely know???

[Dris]

Just a co-incedence then http://www.mybusiness...profile/645/.........

[bennhoughton]

lol, firstly "coincidence"...and secondly that link doesnt lead anywhere!!!!

i'll tell you what....
go to www.accessible-insurance.co.uk and you shall see my company (notice i didnt even put it in followable link format to draw attention to it :)

[Dris]

Link didnt work but google still does.You gave yourself away by being all over Insurance like a rash on the day you joined -great advice-could have done with some myself as im seeing a Loss Adjustor tomorrow but it was obvious you were advertising -well to me but all the best anyway (they dont pay attention to me anyway lol)

[Dris]

Yip thats what i got as well -good on ya honestly -just be thankful it was me who noticed as ive said before they wouldnt pay attention anyway :)

Well what about this - and isnt it coincidental you are putting up all these insurance issues.


Ed!!!

[bennhoughton]

i am "all over insurance like a rash" on the first day of joining because it is what i know, and i joined to try to assist others with any questions or queries they may have....

having not named my company at all until this post, and only then i did that to prove a point to you, i fail to see how i am advertising...

if anything you would have advertised for me by posting a link to my company site (but you got your details wrong)...

its always nice to make friends on the first day Dris....and you only had to ask if had a question about your loss adjuster ...

[Dris]

Exactly DT -thats what ive been trying to say plus been ignored by Ed -nowt new:( Sorry benn -you shouldnt have been so obvious as I have said before
Im stopping reporting now -its like youre a snitch and a nuisance ......

[DTCwordfan]

Yes but posing questions on Day 1 on the industry you are in is highly 'suspect'; responding to any insurance threads that ABers would be totally kosher and appreciated by the site.... And I am sure there is much else that you are knowledgeable about - i.e in running a company, UK employment law etc etc, nver mind your non-work interests.

[bennhoughton]

and if you give me half a chance to post on other question banks i will be doing....replying to you and dris has kinda pre-occupied me

i dont care if i have raised suspicion, i havent done anything but try to help you lot

[DTCwordfan]

Well like Dris, I will let the Ed decide

I have put in plenty abouit energy matters in the past but I have never raised a question about alternative energy or the oil industry despite having worked in the industry and my own company......

[daffy654]

I am one of the first abers to report on people who advertise usually. I do not see this poster as being one of those, until Dris mentioned he had his own company I was unaware of that fact, the poster hadn't named his company at all and was just advising on a topic he obviously knows something about.

[bennhoughton]

thank you daffy
