I just bought a policy with Down Under Insurance - their range of cover is very good and I also took the excess waiver option, which adds 15% to the premium but means I have no excess to pay under any section of the policy. I checked through their Adventurer and Comprehensive policies against a number of others that I found on www.travelsupermarket.com, reading in a lot of detail, and Down Under came out on top (no pun intended). I got 9 months of comprehensive cover for £180 including the excess waiver cost.

It's down to what you need, so check through policy wordings thoroughly (it is boring, I know, but worth it), contact them to specify your needs/circumstances, and weigh up how well each one covers it before deciding.

Hi guys, I'm a bit confused about travel insurance
We currently have yearly travel ins but it says that the journey has to start and end in UK, so no good
Looking for a quote do I cover the dates of just the actual journey or do I need to cover the period we will be living in temp accomodation? then when we rent something more permanent we will buy house ins etc
Thanks
