Do not touch this company with a bargepole, I paid out $200 to see the ships doctor for a rash, Which turned out to be eczema.. I made 4 phone calls numerous emails all ignored.. I finely received a cheque last week for the measly sum of £1.21.. AVOID this company at all costs. They do not like paying out & will ignore your calls & emails.. There Charlatans..

Booked a cruise in August 2017, my family did not receive our luggage at the destination airport and was left without anything for 5 days. Which as you can imagine was a nightmare on a cruise. We came home and put a claim in as according to the platinum cover which we paid for. I was told today that we should have claimed of the airline. This information was given 4 months later. Why sell a policy to be insured for such things to be told this, but apparently its all in the wording. Actually it was my cases that were lost/delayed, not a delayed flight as in section B8 in which the company is claiming. It is safe to say i have an appointment for legal advice tomorrow. I WOULD SUGGEST NO ONE USES THIS COMPANY.

I took this holiday insurance out in full understanding that my cancellation charges would be covered so that I could go away with my Mum on a cruise earlier this year. EXPLORER TRAVEL INSURANCE which I thought it was who then put me in touch with FOGG TRAVEL INSURANCE have sent me a letter today saying that they won’t pay out any of the £2,500 that is owed because my mums illness was in 2016 despite the fact we have a doctors note stating that she was okay at the time of booking. We’ve had lots of problems with travel insurance in the past and now this on top of my Mum passing away really has topped it off while I’m still trying to grieve. We take insurance out on cars, on holidays, our homes and many other things but they always seem to have a way of getting out of it rather than providing you with a service you take it out for in the first place ! so it’s quite hard to accept especially after what’s happened and with actually paying more thinking it was the best one. Clearly not

Avoid - basically ignored when we needed them in the middle of the night - sent me an email asking questions that were already answered when the policy was taken out!! Instead of helping us as we didn't know which hospital we were authorised to go to. Finally sorted it myself at 2am in the morning with a very sick parent. The following day I emailed them (again) asking where we else we could go as the treatment was less than satisfactory very basic & still feeling unwell. Nothing. No reply. Ignored. Thankfully parent became better after a visit to a good chemist & a call back home to her own GP. Dread to think what would've happened if things got worse & luckily towards end of holiday. Do not use I will avoid this company from now on & warn others too.
