Have not used the insurance yet

Went on price comparisons website and decided to go direct to Explorer. Worth my while, found a cheaper holiday insurance direct from them. Perhaps not everyone's cup of tea, but given my age was just looking for a basic insurance. Have used company before and had no queries with them

We have used ETI for 3years now, and have rated it as good. We have not processed a claim so cannot honestly rate it very good. They have always been very competitive on price and not placed any restrictions on us despite our ages. Their website is very easy to use and mobility around it is clear and simple.

Easy to arrange online. Explorer take into account medical conditions and cover these, along with all other travel insurance requirements whilst away on holiday. Have used Explorer several times for holiday travel.

I have been using Explorer Travel Insurance for many years, as you seem to offer good value for money. Luckily I've never had to make a claim so I can't comment on that.

I can’t comment on how good the insurance is as I didn’t need to claim.

I renewed my annual travel policy on the internet. I found the website easy to follow and information was displayed in an easy to understand format. The price was very good and , compared to other insurance providers, covered more eventualities.

The web site works quite well and that is good, as this is the main access point to purchase insurance for my travel. The costs are reasonably competitive but there are new entrants coming on to the market that are trying to make a niche for themselves. This however, does not really manifest itself in markedly better premiums for us travellers. The main reason for this is that, from my experience, ALL the middle of the road providers such as Explorer are all using the same algorithm based assessment mechanism which really has very little finese when it comes to pricing the medical factors which most senior citizens have to declare. I find it particularly arbitrary and really a rather blunt instrument of measurement when it is well known that older travellers naturally have issues like blood pressure elevation, but although we live quite normally with this general condition, that just seems to be an excuse to ramp up the premium without any further consideration of the overall health of the applicant. The excuse I received recently when I challenged this point with an Explorer competitor, I was told that it would be too costly to introduce a human arbitrator to fine tune the quotations given out by the on line insurers. Thus we senior citizens just have to accept that as we have to have travel insurance, this is the best we can expect. The cost of this travel insurance is beginning to represent a meaningful proportion of the overall cost travel for us.
