Pros and cons

HanseMerkur Reiseversicherung AT

Pros

  • Entry premiums start at €1.50, under the €8.37 recorded across the site.
  • The company is an insurer, so HanseMerkur Reiseversicherung AG carries the risk on travel, pet and gadget cover and settles its own claims.
  • Support runs on phone, email and help centre, and claims can be opened on online form and phone, so a call or a form covers both.

Cons

  • Inpatient treatment abroad is capped at 300,000 EUR for inpatient treatment abroad, so a long stay or a private room runs into your own pocket.
  • Eligibility ends at up to 65 years of age, which closes the policy for older travellers.
  • Claims start on online form and phone, with no written claims address given.

MoneyHero

Pros

  • Travel premiums start at HKD 89.49 with an excess of HKD 2,500
  • Compares travel, auto, home, pet, life, critical illness and health cover across travel, auto and home
  • Monthly payments are available, since the monthly payment model applies

Cons

  • A comparison site quotes rather than underwrites, so cover terms sit with the insurer you pick
  • Ranked 145 of 252 on premium from, so entry pricing is mid market
  • The overall score of 2.5 out of ten puts cost at 2.5, well below the top of the table
