The quote was very competitive and my documents were here in seconds. I have more than enough cover for my needs which makes me very happy and gives me peace of mind for my forthcoming travels.

Frustrating, poor communication and process ed

This policy auto renewed, I just had a claim from a skiing accident, one month before it run out and I am still waiting for it to be settled.

It auto renewed, and I contacted them to let them know that I needed to update my medical conditions before it extended into another annual and also to remove winter spots from the policy.

No one contacted me about this. I have tried several times to get onto their portal which will not allow me to go on and irrespective of putting correct information such as passwords and the memorable information it still says information incorrect. This has been reported several times and I’ve had several requests for help and nobody has helped me.

Very poor service constantly having to chase. As of writing this I’m still waiting for them to come back so I can speak to somebody about updating my medical records and changing my cover yet because they have taken the money out automatically. It does not appear as they are bothered. Would not recommend.

Dear Gaynor,

We’re very sorry for the inconvenience you’ve experienced and how difficult it has been trying to get through to us. We understand how frustrating this situation has been, especially while waiting for updates on your claim and renewal.

We have recently been dealing with a backlog of emails, and our phone lines have been extremely busy, which has unfortunately caused delays. Please be assured that we are working hard to get fully up to date and assist every customer as quickly as possible.

After reviewing your policy, I can see that you contacted us on 23/04/2026. Your winter sports cover has now been removed, and the refund of wintersports has been issued. I can also confirm that the medical cover you requested was reviewed, but the additional premium was declined.

We have also sent you an email with full details.

If there is anything more we can help you with, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’re here to support you.

Kind regards,
Rahul

Poor service

I was never sent an email with my policy documents. All I ever recieved was a review page asking me to grade your service back in February when I paid the insurance. Even now after spending considerable time to trace your company, I am still trying to access the documents 1 day before I go on holiday. I certainly would not consider giving you more than 1 star for your performance so far.

Absolutely dreadful customer service

Absolutely pathetic.
I got a renewal quote which I did not want to accept in march. I attempted to cancel the auto renewal on the website and could find no way to do this, even though their own email says that there is.
I have repeatedly emailed great cover over the last 4 weeks with no reply and received an email yesterday saying they would be taking the direct debit shortly, regardless of my repeated attempts to cancel it.
I have also repeatedly attempted to call them. However you get an automated service asking you to press a number on your keypad, which does not work, and after the 3rd attempt hangs up on you.
Absolutely woeful customer services, I would never recommend anyone use great cover id you expect any basic level of service or even a basic reply to your emails.

Dear Colin,

Thank you for your review, and I’m very sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve experienced.

We have attempted to call you today to discuss this further, but it appears there may have been an issue with the connection and we were unable to get through. We have also sent you an email with further information and support.

I can confirm that the auto‑renewal on your policy was turned off on 20/04/2026, so no further payments will be taken.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and frustration this situation has caused. If there is anything else we can help you with, please feel free to reply to our email or contact us and we will be happy to assist.

Kind regards,
Rahul

Do not use this company!

This company took off a payment for the following years policy before this years policy had ended even though I did not confirm if I was renewing or not which I wasn’t as I was no longer travelling out with Europe. Also I had not been informed if new policy cost which was £54.17 more than last years which I would not have accepted. I’m extremely concerned by this company’s policy of taking money from people without their approval and before their current policy runs out!
I was then told it would take 3-5 working days to refund the money they’d taken without my approval. 🤬

Dear Elaine,

Thank you for your review, and I’m very sorry for the inconvenience and frustration this situation has caused.

I’ve checked our system and can confirm that your policy was successfully cancelled on 17/04/2026, and the refund has been issued. Please allow 3–5 working days for the funds to appear back in your account, depending on your bank’s processing times.

Regarding the increase in premium, prices can change each year as underwriting criteria and rates are updated. These adjustments are set by our underwriters and can affect the cost of renewal, even when no changes have been made to the policy.

If there’s anything more we can help you with, please let us know we’re here to support you.

Kind regards,
Rahul

Since the 1st of April I've been fobbed off after they received payment. Nearly a month, no proof of insurance, no documents. 3 emails in and they're saying"too busy" contacting my bank on a fraudulent experience. PLEASE chose another insurance group.
