Question

Can anyone recommend a good company ?

The one I'm using at the moment are complete t0ssers! Lost a pair of Oakley Juliets on holiday only to be told by the insurance company they don't cover sunglasses!!

Apparently it is some small print in a section along with artificial limbs and dentures!!!!

Hello

I used to use Boots for multi-trip business cover.

I had to claim some (normal) glasses and the process was quite painless and they were very helpful.

The AA do quite good annual cover, just renewed mine and its gone down to £95 per year for worldwide travel. it can be upgraded to cover winter sports for an extra £16at any time.

For my last two trips to Europe I've sorted cover via the Post Office's service. Done it the day before I go on the phone, no hassles.

Cheers for the feedback, I'll give some of these a try.

I'll be looking at the small print to see if it exludes nearly everything you'd take on holiday, just to make sure they don't tuck me up like my current insurance.

With a gold card you may get free travel insurance, but you also get clobbered with a percentage ontop of the holiday for using a credit card. I use www.clubdirect.com, had no problems, but then I've never claimed.

Just bought mine from www.directline.com

Dunno if it would cover your sunglasses, but it seemed quite good value for what I wanted
