Great insurance policy
Very good value for money. Policy covered everything that I needed and I loved the travel card, knowing that if I needed it, the process would be easy. Thank goodness I haven't needed to make a claim

Great value
Used it for a short domestic cruise and it was very good value compared to other products I considered. Love the re-useable card. Did not make a claim, so cant comment on that side

People we were traveling with also used TravelCard Insurance and needed to claim. The service was excellent.
Not sure about the value compared to insurance provided with credit cards. It was easy to set up. This is the first time I've used Travel card but will look at using again in the future.

We do a of of overseas traveling and found TravelCard to be the best over all
Great value. We have used TravelCard several times when traveling. Find it the most easiest form of travel insurance due to only having to produce the card when or if an incident or accident occurs. Luckily we have never had to use it.

NO Excess! Awesome service while away!
First time using Travelcard but it won't be the last! The No Excess is the best part about it! I had some medical issues while overseas and when I contacted them they were brilliant and made the whole thing less stressful. Highly recommend them! The policy was slightly more expensive but worth it!

A really good product with an exceptional customer experience
I initially purchased my policy and then needed to extend it, this was a very easy process taking maybe 2-3min time over the phone. I had to make a claim once I returned home and this was also a very simple process. The team were so easy to work with and I am so happy I selected them.

Not bad! Not good either
Didn’t have to claim. But too bad I’d we did. Decided to leave 1 day earlier to Melbourne from Tasmania before proceeding overseas. Had this organised 2 months prior to leaving. Tried calling at least 15 times during this period to change travel dates. Always told someone would call back as the system was down. No one got back to me

Unexpected pleasant experience
Although this was the most expensive policy we were quoted we were willing to pay the extra to have cover should Mt Agung fire again and upset our travel plans in Bali.
We did not need cover for a volcanic eruption but my phone did go for a quick dip in the pool and I was not looking forward to the claim process. In fact I wasn't going to bother submitting a claim.
However, when contacted by Travelcard to request feedback I asked if it was worth my while claiming. From there the process was fairly straightforward and painless and my claim was paid out (phone was deemed unrepairable), much to my pleasant surprise.
Thank you Travelcard. I will be a return customer.

They covered incidents multiple times, saving me a lot of money with a smile
Buying a policy online is pretty easy. Having to re-fill all my details every time is a bit of a bummer but I guess it means that my privacy is higher that way (they don't keep my details on their systems). The system of having a credit card into which they can deposit funds even before I have to expense works great.
The first time I traveled while covered by them I had a group of 5 of us (two adults and three kids) going for 3 weeks in Israel. The price was very affordable. While staying in Israel, the youngest had a pimple show up on her for...Read more
ehead. I found a clinic which would have cost about $400 for a single visit (from memory). I called up TravelCard and had the amount deposited into the credit card they provided me on the spot before I went to the doctor and had to pay. Some extra amount covered the medicine prescribed by the doctor. In another case, I bought insurance for a short trip to Hawaii about 3 days before departing. The next day both of us got a strong cold and had very clogged nose. Clearly not in a state to fly. We saw a doctor and hoped it'll get better but on the morning of the flight it still was too bad to fly. We got a doctor certificate and with that we received a full refund of the flight and hotel room that we already paid for and couldn't cancel (luckily I was able to cancel the rental car reservation). In both cases, dealing with TravelCard was pretty smooth and frustration free. Their requests for supporting documents were reasonable and sensible. They even were accomodating for mismatch in the amounts given on the paperwork from the reservation agent. I now buy travel insurance for every trip. Our experience with them converted my partner from being extremely leery of insurance and agents to someone who buys insurance for her own travels. The same is true for friends to whom I recommended TravelCard.1 comment

Hassle free and competitive rate insurance
TravelCard Insurance is easy to deal with. My first experience with TravelCard was when I travelled to Singapore for 8 days and I have a 5 week overseas trip planned for March 2020 for which I have TravelCard. They have friendly, helpful staff and applying was stress free, even with pre-existing conditions to declare. The cost is quite reasonable considering the policy has nil excess and making a claim was also stress free, but could have been resolved quicker as my only claim was for sustenance costs while being held up at the airport for more...Read more

Terry Basked
If the airline cancels the flight am I still covered by insurance?
4 answers
Customer ServiceTravelCard Real-Time Travel Insurance
Hi Terry,
Your coverage will depend on the reason for why the airline cancelled your flights e.g. Strikes, weather, hijack, civil protest or accident.
Generally if the airline cancels a flight due to something that is within their control like engineering issues or issues relating to the operating of the flight e.g staffing requirements then there would not be coverage.
We advise that if you are overseas and your flight is cancelled please call our on trip assistance team on +61 2 7909 2777 OR if you are still in Australia and would like further clarification call 1300 123 413.
If we need to cancel out trip, due to unforeseen circumstances eg illness does insurance cover all the accommodation cancellation fees as well as airfares?
Customer ServiceTravelCard Real-Time Travel Insurance
Hey Terry,
Cheers for your enquiry.
Regarding cancellation due to illness, we will require medical documentation to confirm you cannot travel. In addition to this, we require confirmation of the diagnosis and the date of diagnosis. It’s a policy requirement to determine if the condition that has caused you to cancel is a pre-existing medical condition or not.
