I have taken out travel insurance with SCTI a few times and always found their policies to be good value with easy to understand coverage details. My most recent trip is the first time in over 20 years of traveling that I have ever made a travel insurance claim, albeit a minor one. SCTI was easy to detail with - the process was straightforward and they paid the claim in line with their policy. Will definitely continue to use them.

We booked SCTI based on friend’s recommendations and they delivered. Insurance is something you never want to use but was very glad I selected SCTI when one of my children had to undergo emergency surgery in Fiji. It was great to get all associated costs back but customer service team really assisted my entire family during the process (accommodation, flights, medical opinions, dealing with hospital commercial team) Thank you Southern Cross

I had a straightforward claim: My flight to NZ was delayed 3 hours then cancelled. Since I was only going to NZ for the weekend, I didn't get on the replacement flight they offered us (which would get me there ate 4PM the following day).

Jetstar refunded my flight, and I claimed the rest (accommodation, car hire, transport to/from airport) with SCTI. I lodged all receipts with them and received my money back about 4 weeks later.

Value for money and the best service ever, easy to deal with, I did have a claim in the past and had no problems at all. Thank you for Southern Cross Travel Insurance.

Long time customer. Unfortunately, I injured my finger in Bali and all costs incurred were reimbursed by SCTI following the claim with supporting documents. Affordable prices. Will recommend this insurance company. Headache-free claim.

Clause on their website that excludes any claim for volcano related incidents, which seems to be long standing and in place for future events. I reached out to scti for clarification on this as a long time customer of theirs only to be ignored twice. Thanks scti, I will go elsewhere.

I am a previous customer..many times... and find the ease of buying and comprehensive cover very affordable. I have never had a claim so cannot comment on that end but recommend your services

Have used SCTI many times and haven't had a problem. Last year, I experienced severe Morning Sickness due to unforeseen Pregnancy and as a result had to cancel the holiday. STCI refused to refund hotel costs as Morning sickness is not covered despite the event being unforeseen and after the purchase of the insurance. I provided documentation from my OB stating that travel was not advised as well as proof that I was not pregnant at the time of purchase of the insurance - and this didn't change the outcome. This is extremely disappointing that their policy doesn't support women in this scenario.

I didn't think I would write such a review for an insurance company, but my experience in both taking out a policy and in making a claim (the test of a good policy and company) could not be faulted. Various members of my family have used SCTI over the last couple of years and I hope that their reasonable prices stay competitive as I plan to use them for a major overseas trip this year.

I have used SCTI numerous times over the last 4 years while travelling overseas to visit family. Comparing policies offered with other companies, I find they meet all my needs, at a reasonable price. Unfortunately I had a need to claim on my trip taken late last year but all benefits were paid as per the schedule quickly and without any hassle.

We have traveled a few times with SCTI and had no issues or claims. When we got home there was a courtesy email providing details if we had to claim. Comforting to have that.
Before we left, I discovered I had inserted the wrong return date, being too short. Placed a phone call and the new dates given and all sorted in a very friendly and professional manner.
Will use these folks again for sure.

Great travel insurance and normally very responsive to contact via supplied numbers. However! I did contact SCTI on email when the recent Coronavirus issues arose as we were travelling in Japan, just asking where we stand with our insurance and given that health organisations had declared higher emergency status and if our insurance was still valid. Sadly no one ever got back to me - Very Poor form guys.

I travel extensively and always choose Southern Cross Insurance. It's perfect for my needs at a competitive price. Claiming was fast and easy. Highly recommend and wouldn't use anyone else

This was my first time claiming on travel insurance after a theft on an overseas trip. I expected a complicated and drawn out process, but SCTI put all of my fears to rest. Their service is excellent, their processes were clear and straightforward, and my claim was processed quickly and fairly. I will absolutely be a return customer for future trips, and am very grateful for how well my claim was handled.

Absolutely no issues at all, good value for travellers over the age of 60. No hassles at all and easy to take out the policy on line. Thank you all

I had 3 days stay in a Chinese Hospital costing over $10,000. SCTI answered the phone no matter what time of the day and liaised with the hospital. Filled out a couple of forms when i returned to Australia and the matter was sorted out in no time. They covered the full cost.
I very rarely leave reviews but felt i should because of the great service they provided.

Have used SCTI before but never had to claim until booking replacement flights 3 weeks ago. After claim message saying they needed 9 business days, it's now 3 weeks later and they haven't even assigned someone to the claim and keep saying call back next week and blaming glitches. Out of pocket $4,000 and have had no help from SCTI.

We always use Southern Cross Travel for our Travel Insurance and it is always seamless. We have used this company multiple times and have never had a bad experience. No problems on our last few trips however when we have had to make a claim in the past it has always been actioned promptly. Policies are so easy to set up and communication is always prompt. Couldn't recommend this company highly enough.
