Umm - there is a school of thought that some credit card insurance has iniquitous limitations (hidden deep in the PDS) that makes it something not to reply on. I suggest that you research the cover and the exclusions in great depth.

PS - I found out that my cover was void because pursuant to clause 134ggz, sub-part xxvi, coverage is excluded for persons borne after 9am in the day unless they have an uncle named Norman.

Check this link: Cheap Travel Insurance for EU Residents - Annual Holiday Insurance - they offer yearly policies up to 120 days.

Thanks for the responses...I'll check out the CC coverage, but i don't have an uncle Norman either...

The EU insurance I suspect would require at some point proof of permanent residency in the EU
