Recommendations for a good Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance?

[RSD]

I need to take out another 12 months annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance cover shortly, any recommendations for a good one? I need coverage for the USA included, don't need coverage for sky diving, bungee jumping or shark surfing etc. Any help would be appreciated!

Travel insurance direct or covermore are your best bets, used both and have been fantastic. TID tend to have more promos often, search the Web for promo codes you might be able to get some $$ off.

TIDBDAYAU should still work for 10% discount with Travel Insurance Direct.

RSD is policy solely for yourself or do you wish to cover others also?

Tidthanks may still work too?

Just myself.

As suggested on here not long back, have a look at Aust Post offerings (there was a discount code too). For us the wording seems pretty good & the interpretation of pre-existing suits us. You have to make sure you click through a bit further to get to the quote for yearly policy

TID Australia's AMT policy covers you for unlimited domestic and international trips over 12 months. There's a maximum duration of 38 days for leisure trips and 90 days for business.

Our 10th birthday promotion ended 13 April 2015 but you are welcome to use the promotion code TIDTHANKS.

Let me know if you have any other questions about the policy with TID. Alternatively, there's more information on our website by searching for 'AMT' on the Customer Service tab.

I currently have a TID annual policy and have made one claim with them which was pretty easy and painfree process.

Prior to TID I used 1cover annual policy but that's because one of my trips was 54 days and 1cover covers upto 90 days per trip.

Many thanks everyone - have just gone with TID. Pity I missed out on the birthday Promo!

I think the birthday promo and tidthanks were both 10% anyway..

I've recommended TID frequently on this forum due to "above and beyond" service received from TID when my son's friend suffered major trauma in a traffic accident in Chiang Mai Thailand. All of our policies are now purchased via TID. We have had an annual policy in place for years as a result.

No experience with using the following provider, as I've only just found out about them:

Travel Insuranz.

The use a provider in the uk, you don't need a return flight, plus you can start the insurance when you are actually overseas.

more info (greater details) are listed in the faq.

I have a TID annual policy. Or had. They don't seem to remind you when it's about to run out, which seems like an easy way to get ongoing business.

Either that, or I missed the emails. Luckily, I seem to be rotating dual coverage with a QBE annual policy (annual was same price as cover for my 1 month ski trip, so a no brainer).

Having recently claimed with both (minor/theft luggage type stuff), TID will win every time. Quicker, simpler, responded when they said they would.

And welcome to the Rep, I remember we had a semi-official one a few years back who was also very helpful.

Maybe you have opted out of emails. We receive a reminder email every December with policy due late December.

It is great to have positive stories of people being treated over & above. Having worked in insurance for a while I am more inclined to read the PDS & see how it fits my circumstances rather than just go with company that treated someone well. In saying that, maybe TID does indeed suit your neeeds the best?

I was going to use TID at our last renewal but they couldn't/wouldn't cover our 68 days away associated with an annual policy.

I read the PDS too. .

And have taken out a once off policy with Covermore who provides cover for paragliding. TID don't.

Assuming the PDF looks ok then I also look for reviews based on actual experience rather than such issues as cost.

This posts makes more sense to me. Sorry but I didn't infer you didn't read the PDS.
