Travel insurance

[Will12283]

I have been looking for travel insurance and had had quotes of under £10 for a family of 3.

I'm unsure if getting cover that is so cheap. I normally use insure and go but after reading an article stating that the cover won't cover the cost of smart phones or tablets (I'm taking my iPhone and iPad) I have decided to look elsewhere.

Anyone have any companies they would recommend?

Thanks Rhys

id be cautious of the cheap quotes too. i think for piece of mind pay a little more. after all you don't know whats round the corner so to speak. :thumb:
i pay for one annually as we try and get abroad a couple of times a year. its a little more expensive for me as i have a medical condition but considering that its not too bad.
as has being said the post office is pretty good.

If you cant find a cheap enough quote, consider opening a bank account with Natwest.
I've got advantage blue (£7 a month) and the benefits are fairly impressive, including free travel insurance for a week anywhere in the world etc.

I believe the advantage gold (£13 a month) covers spouses/children too, but I'm not sure.

Take a look into it, as far as i am aware there is no contractual obligation, so you could simply close your account after going on holiday.
