'Best Buys across the board'

Dean Sobers, Which? travel insurance expert, says:

Covered2Go's Platinum policy performed very well in our analysis, scoring 74% - just outside of the top ten policies in our assessment. 

It offers a generous maximum of £5,000 for baggage cover and personal belongings, and doesn't apply excesses when you claim. 

If you have to cancel or cut your trip short, the policy offers a high cancellation limit of £10,000. This doesn't just cover flights; pre-paid accommodation, transport arrangements and activities (such as tours and shows) are also covered. However, cancellation isn't covered if you can't travel because of war or terrorism in the area.

Bankruptcy cover

Covered2Go's policies are among just 8% in our analysis that will cover you having to cancel your trip because the airline goes bankrupt. As an optional extra you can also add cover against the holiday supplier (for example the travel agent) going bankrupt. 

We found this cover to be available in a quarter of policies. 

Gold and Silver policies

Covered2Go's Gold policy achieved 70%, placing it in the top fifth of our table along with Platinum, and also a Best Buy. Silver, meanwhile, scored 64%, just in the Best Buy range. 

The Gold policy cancellation limit is £5,500, and Silver offers £2,000.

Unlike Platinum, both policies come with excesses – £75 under Silver and £50 under Gold.  

Is Covered2Go good if you have a medical condition?

Like most policies, Covered2Go will consider covering you if you have a pre-existing medical condition.

You're able to declare your medical history when applying for cover. Depending on the type, severity and stability of any conditions you have, these may be excluded from cover, or added either with or without an extra cost to your premium.    

Covered2Go isn't a specialist provider for customers with pre-existing medical conditions, but this doesn't mean it can't cover your medical condition at a reasonable price.

However, if you're struggling to obtain cover, check our guide on travel insurance if you have a medical condition.

How good is Covered2Go at handling claims?

Covered2Go uses a company called Claims Settlement Agencies Limited to handle claims.

Covered2Go's underwriter, Millstream Underwriting, operates on behalf of AWP Assistance UK Limited. 

  • The latest data from the Financial Conduct Authority shows that AWP Assistance UK Limited accepted 90-95% of claims on annual European policies – that's higher than the industry average of 86.3%.
  • It paid 90-95% of claims on annual worldwide policies, above the average of 84.5%
  • It accepted 85-90% of claims on single trip policies, better than the average of 80%

Covered2Go's travel insurance: how can I claim?

To make a claim by phone or call for medical assistance, call +44 (0)330 660 0785.

You can also make a claim online. 

Insurers will usually expect you to try recouping lost costs (such as deposits) elsewhere before claiming with them – for example, checking with the travel provider if you're entitled to a refund or can move a cancelled trip. However, you can still call the insurer to let it know if there's a chance you'll need to claim.  

You'll need to provide your policy number when you call.

How does Covered2Go compare with other providers?

Covered2Go's Platinum policy has a score of 74%. Directly above it are Tesco's Premier policy, Saga's Standard - Single trip policy, and Tesco's Backpacker Premier policy. These each earned 75%.

The policy below it is the Backpacker Gold policy from Travel Insurance Saver, which has a score of 72%.

Should you buy Covered2Go travel insurance?

If the price suits you, then yes – all three of Covered2Go's policies met our Best Buy tests, with two policies in the top fifth of our table.
