Thanks RAC for the prompt refund when I accidentally purchased two policies for the same trip. No fuss, no delay..it is appreciated.
Guess that's why I use RAC for travel insurance

Extension due to COVID19

published

I have an annual multi trip travel Insurance taken with RAC each year. This year, due to the Covid 19 pandemic and the restrictions on travel, my Insurance was extended for another year, without charge.

Just what I need from an Insurance Company

published

I took out travel insurance with RAC to cover a half world cruise and more for my wife and I early in January 2020. Due to travel restrictions we were unable to travel. I thought that we had lost our premium. My wife persuaded me to ask for a refund. To my surprise I was given a full refund for the policy. Magnificent customer service that I did not expect to get from an insurance company. They were just wonderful and I got the refund within 1 week. Brilliant!! I have had all of my insurance with RAC for 47 years and this is why. Such a great company.

Great value for money

Great value for just the excess amount charged by car rental companies. Got a full refund because of the Covid-19 trip cancellation. Used this last year as well. Much cheaper than others for a similar amount.

Fantastic service

published

This was first time I have used RAC travel insurance - sadly had to cancel due to Coronavirus outbreak. We considered the comprehensive insurance good value for us seniors. I had to speak to staff twice each time with questions they were so helpful. When I phoned to cancel it was done in seconds ! I will certainly be using RAC Travel insurance when we can next fly.

good value for money

on paper, policy looked comprehensive and corresponded to what we needed. Staff on the phone very pofessional, friendly and helpful. However, had to cancel insurance before we could experience our travel.
I would certainly take it up again on future travels.

As so many people have had to do in these times, cancel my travel insurance, the young man on the other end of the phone was more than helpful . As always a pleasure to do business with the RAC.

Travel Insurance is a must have

published

Good value, how’ve the true test is when you need to make a claim. That is he you know if the company is great. I have had claims on policies ie: vehicle and personal ..RAC have been very good. I choose you because you are local. However, I do think all companies should be doing more in light of this Coronavirus, I feel this is an area where they all let themselves down. Or charge an additional premium for cover. I would be happy to have that choice.

Have compared a few others and found your policy to be great value. Fortunately have never had to lodge a claim. Have probably used your insurance company 3 times now.

RAC Travel Insurance

We are booked for travel in October, will we get back the $1400+ we paid for insurance if our flights are cancelled & travel bans are still in place

I think it depends on the date you brought insurance, either before virus warning, I cancelled my insurance as it was worthless, covered nothing due to purchasing after virus and they refunded immediately, if your insurance was paid pre warning they will cover everything, best to ring them it didn’t take long to get through.

Highly unlikely, RAC are wiping their hands. Read through their fine print and if you call their office, they will give you two phone numbers dedicated to Covid19 enquiries- one is an (02) number, the other a 1300 number...they just ring out or are engaged until someone finally answers. Good luck!

Hi Ray, depends when you purchased. And if you took out, cancellation for any reason. If you are in the twenty day cooling off period, you will get a full refund within days. Good luck.
