Thank you for your review. We have listened to your call and did not locate any language difficulties. Unfortunately our call operatives are unable to locate quotations obtained via aggregators sites. Therefore any new telephone quotations would require our call operative to request this information from you. We appreciate this can be time consuming and our call operatives will aim to complete in the quickest time possible. Wishing you safe travels from Spectrum Insurance.

I was very impressed that when I sought a quote I was very quickly chased up (nicely I’d add) with an email with the details of the policy and even a discount!
i found your website very easy to use.

Would recommend this insurance company

Would recommend this insurance company, we had to make a claim from our last holiday in April. They helped advise which hospital to go to. We had to pay the bill whilst on holiday but had no problem completing the forms and claiming the money back on our return to England.

21 days staying with our son in Canada

21 days staying with our son in Canada. This is OK. But why do insurers assume that we are too feeble at 66 and 78 to be away from home for more than 35 days at a time? We are off to Spain for 3 months in September so that is not a lot of good to us.We are already paying excessive premiums compared to slightly younger travellers.What about it Insurers, I'm off to dig the garden now then I'm building a wall. Cheers! JR.

Thank you for your review. As with most travel policies there are age/trip duration restrictions which differ from insurer to insurer. Although our Single Trip policies do provide cover for up to 100 days, this is only available for travellers up to age 75. We appreciate this is disappointing and do hope you find a suitable policy for your trip to Spain. Wishing you safe travels from Spectrum Travel Insurance.

Good service but was confused about whether the renewal price included our previous medical screening costs

Good service but was confused about the term ‘renewal price’. If I renew something, I assume it will be the same thing again. As we had medical screening charges last time, I was unsure whether they were included in the new price or not. After all, we were just repeating the same purchase from last year, where we paid one total price. I rang up and a very helpful lady was able to clarify that the medical stuff has to be redone every year. It would have been better if this information was included when a renewal notice email was sent out.

Thank you for your review. We are pleased you found the service to be good. As advised in our renewal email, medical screenings are not included in the renewal quotation. Our medical question database is updated regularly and therefore may ask different questions to the previous year. As such customers are required to re-complete to ensure we have the most up to date information. This also gives customers the opportunity to add/remove conditions as guided by our medical warranty criteria. We thank you for renewing with Spectrum Travel Insurance and wish you safe travels.

Good cover, good value, easy to acquire.

Easy site to use. Policy choices adequate for most. Cover excellent and cost, including pre-existing medical, is less that the cheapest on a comparison website. Application was easy right through to the medical questionnaire.
