Good Points: There are only good points!
Bad Points: There are NO bad points!
General comments: I bought insurance from Direct Travel Insurance because I read the reviews on this website. Me and my son paid £12 for 1 week in Turkey. To be honest I was startled by the very low price and thought it would be a huge battle to ever make a claim if I needed!
Yes I needed to. One day of severe food poisoning led to a night in Turkish intensive care!
I never paid "up front" for expenses and me and my son were kept in a private room until I recovered.
My verdict for this company is EXCELLENT!! 5 Star service.

Then on my return I put in the claim for all the treatment, medical supplies i had to pay for etc even the taxi fare i had to pay to get me back to my resort. Thinking this is when you find out how good an insurance company is! I thought it would be a while and probably a lot of has ...

My family have used Direct Travel Insurance since 2003. They have been SO good that I have never felt the need to look elsewhere. I originally found them via the internet when choosing for the cheapest (hey, we ALL hope we don't have to claim!). Was VERY impressed at the price - it was way, way under what other companies were charging. And the catch? Absolutely nothing!! The first holiday we had covered by them, my daughter came down with the cryptosporadia virus that had plagued Alcudia, ...

Have used their annual policy for a few years now and have always found the price of their quote to be very competitive. They always handle enquiries efficiently and simplify your requests for additional cover. I have not had to make a claim so far and touch wood I won't have to but so far so good.
