Easy to purchase on line - reasonable competitive prices. Never had to claim so cannot comment on claims procedure.

We called you whilst on holiday to report a lost mobile phone whilst Trekking in Sweden. We purchased a specific 'Explorer' Insurance Policy to ensure we would receive sufficient cover whilst on holiday and cover every eventuality. When we spoke with one of your customer advisers we were met with uncertainty about what our policy actually covered and a request to provide a police report regarding the lost phone! ... To which I explained the phone was 'Lost' whilst in the Swedish Wilderness and this was not possible! Following this I asked how much we would actually be covered for if I did provide this information, I was told £175 with a £75 excess - Which would clearly not covered a quarter of the price of a modern mobile phone. This policy is clearly out dated and we very much regret taking out the policy with you and giving you our business. If you require further detail please do not hesitate to contact me directly.

We have had to make a claim as my wife's mobile phone was stolen in Peru. It takes on average about 40 minutes to get through on the phone and then you never get the correct person to deal with our claim. We put our claim in around the 5 June , got a reference number and have got no further despite numerous calls. Their customer service is none existent as soon as they have taken your money. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY IN CASE YOU ARE UNFORTUNATE ENOUGH TO NEED TO MAKE A CLAIM!

Fortunately, I didn't require assistance but felt reassured and will book again in December for my next trip. I had aready used Explorer Travel before this last trip which again was reassuring to know that you were there to assist if I encountered any problems.

I have chose Explorer Travel Insurance for the last few years. This site is easy to use and the prices for preexisting medical conditions are good in comparison to other insurers. Lucky I haven't had to make a claim so can't comment on the claims side.

We have used Explorer on a few occasions for our cruise holidays. Fortunately we have never had to make a claim so can't really give any information as to whether it is easy or not to make a claim

After several years dealing with you I was shocked to be treated poorly when i had to report that my wife had developed a chest infection after taking out Travel Insurance on a previous occasion. Having spent £101 was told cover would be an additional £300 which i refused so you took off all declared Medical Conditions. This has now been resolved The Medical conditions re instated at a an additional cost of £20 so £120 in total . The issue is with the Middle persons attitude which could have been more forgiving as the circumstances were always going to be resolved . Will i use you again ,not sure at this point in time as i am still very cross .
