This the third time I have used Free…

This the third time I have used Free spirit. They answer the phone, they help you with any questions about making sure your insurance is covered, they are happy to spend time going through questions - all worth being with Free Spirit. I have not had to claim but I travel with confidence.

Free Spirit left us Free and Easy

Your agent was knowledgeable and able to apply his knowledge to our specific requirements. Your three product levels for travel insurance is also good and easy to follow.

We were very happy to purchase the highest level because it was everything we needed.

Your agent was an excellent front of house ambassador for your organisation and within a day we had already recommended your company to some of our friends

Excellent service from start to finish

Excellent service from start to finish. Nathan, who dealt with my enquiry was very patient in guiding me thro the myriad questions associated with existing health issues. I don't think he could have been more helpful. The resulting quote was better than any of the other five companies I had tried.

Ease of contacting yourselves by phone…

Ease of contacting yourselves by phone and very nice helpful staff.
Unfortunately, prices have increased this last time.
It is around a £100 this holiday from last time in October 2025.
I have used yourselves for a number of years now, the 10% discount this time around was helpful.

Second Year with this company

Second Year with this company. Online application was straightforward although it crashed when trying to pay so had to call. Fortunately the site had retained all the information so did not have to do it all again.
The call was answered promptly and dealt with efficiently. Hopefully will be a similar experience if any claims are necessary.
