Pros and cons

Pros

  • Claim routes through online, phone and email with help available on email, chat and phone
  • Broker model as broker keeps the range centred on travel choice

Cons

  • Covers travel only, so you cannot bundle home or auto cover here
  • Set up as broker, so the underwriting carrier sits apart from the distributor

Who it suits

  • You want travel only cover and find the wider mix at andsafe broader than needed
  • You want US brokered trip cover and find the life led range at LV= less relevant
  • You want focused trip choice rather than the broad portfolio at die Bayerische

Who should look elsewhere

  • You want auto and home alongside travel in a single place, where andsafe may fit better
  • You want life, health or income protection alongside travel, where die Bayerische may fit better
  • You want a UK style multi line provider with pet and life cover, where LV= may fit better

Frequently asked questions

What does Travelex Insurance cover?+

Travelex Insurance covers travel. That focus suits you if you are shopping for trip protection rather than a wider home or auto bundle. Check plan wording to see what each trip plan includes and excludes.

What is the stated cover limit?+

Plans show cover limits of USD 25,000. Use that ceiling to compare trip plans against the value of your booking, medical needs and baggage. Limits can vary by plan, so read the selected plan schedule before purchase.

Is Travelex Insurance a broker or an insurer?+

Travelex Insurance is described as broker. That means it arranges cover rather than acting as the insurer on the risk. Your plan documents will name the underwriting carrier responsible for benefits and claims decisions.
