Great Service in Troubled Times

published

COVID-19 struck and we suffered our cruise cancelled just 36 hours before embarkation. Not needing to claim on the insurance I requested a possible premium refund. While this was not possible, Zoom have provided a credit that I can use within the next 6 months. Very professional and accommodating in my dealing with Zoom. Thank you.

Excellent service

published

We had bought an insurance policy to cover a very short cruise in Sept 2020.Due to the current Covid19 situation we reluctantly decided not to continue with our plans to cruise due to health concerns.I contacted Harriet at ZOOM and she was able to organize a credit to be used at a later late when it is safer to travel.Thank you ZOOM .....very much appreciated and will certainly use again when we are able to travel.

Clear Communication Great Service

Easy to have policy cancelled and get a credit for future travel. Quick response to my email and
I felt that who I dealt with understood my situation. It was great to get a credit on the policy as they
legally could have cancelled it without doing this.

Whilst I have not yet used the policy, we had to rearrange due to CoVid travel restrictions. The team were very understanding and professional in offering a credit voucher with an 18 month duration. So, one less thing to worry about. Great service

We were unable to utilise the Zoom travel insurance because of the Covid-19 pandemic. As with most travel insurances, pandemics are not covered. Zoom was therefore not obliged to refund the money. It was obviously very disappointing not to get money refunded, however upon a request for refund of policy premium, we feel Zoom have acted fairly in offering a credit voucher to the value of our premium.
This has been much appreciated. Harriet has been very prompt, friendly and efficient to deal with.

great end result

published

after our world trip was cancelled due to covid, and after the 14 days cooling off clause, I really did not expect anything from Zoom, but was very surprised indeed. They answered emails the same day, and offered an immediate credit voucher with 450 days to use. I was more than satisfied with this result.

No Cover (read the fine print), No Trip and No Refund

published

Two policies brought last year, one for travel in May 20202 and the other in June 2020, obviously everything is canceled. In the fine print, you will note a Pandemic is not covered, most other insurers cover this event, NOT Zoom. So I thought a refund would be an obvious thing to request as the policy would NOT be used, just like any other insurance, say a car if you sell it you get a refund on your insurance, NOT with Zoom and I don't want credit. Maybe I need insurance for the insurance policy, I might run this by consumer affairs.

Taking advantage of the corona virus.

published

Paid for my travel insurance and then my cruise was cancelled due to the travel restrictions. It was a few days outside of the 14 day cooling off period and yet they still refused to cancel the insurance and refund. Advised I will not be taking a cruise within the next 12 months but this company doest not care. They are taking advantage of an unfortunate situation. Very disappointing deserve negative stars.

They suck - AVOID

published

If you do not own your phone, DO NOT GO THROUGH THIS COMPANY. They only cover people who own their phone, which in this day is minimum people. The policy was horrible value as I feel like I would’ve been better off not purchasing insurance at all. It’s taken 2 weeks to be advised my claim was denied. Once, and will never go through them again.

So happy

published

I've always gone with my credit card insurance in the past, but I needed extra cover for my cruise. Zoom Travel Insurance were by far the cheapest I could find and their website was super easy to use. I'll definitely be using for all my trips from now on and have already recommended to lots of friends. Thank you!

Hi Patrick, Yes we are still operating. Unfortunately, we're experiencing some technical difficulties this morning. Our development team are working their socks off to fix it. Bear with us and we should be back online within the hour.

Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, we're experiencing a very high volume of enquiries so the best way to reach us at the moment is via email [email protected].

Hi Jim,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you on this. As you can imagine, we have been experiencing an extremely high volume of enquiries in relation to covid-19, the resultant travel bans and the impact that this is having on many Australians travel plans.

The best way to reach us is via our customer service team directly, rather than a third party website. You can find our contact details here:

To answer your question, unfortunately not. We only provide cover for Australian residents.

I hope you managed to find the cover that you were looking for.

Warm regards,
Eva, Customer Service

ZoomZoom Travel Insurance

Hi David, The best way to have any questions about the cover offered by Zoom travel insurance answered is to contact us directly. You can contact our friendly customer service consultants via online webchat, email or phone.

To answer your query, we have a general exclusion in our policy relating to epidemics and pandemics, so anything related to the coronavirus is unlikely to be covered. Having said that, all medical emergencies are referred to our 24/7 emergency medical assistance team and all claims are assessed based on individual facts and circumstances.

I am part of the marketing team and unfortunately I am unable comment on specific cases and can only offer general advice and direct you to the policy wording, sorry.

Warmest regards, Eva
