We had to cancel a holiday this year due to medical issues. We were told we get £1300 back and was only paid £600 in our bank without even knowing and not been given a chance to contest it.The service from start to finish was absolutely disgusting.DO NOT USE ADMIRAL TRAVEL INSURANCE. Reviewed on: 31st December 2024

Good, but...

competitively priced and good coverage but for some reason your travel insurance can't be viewed alongside other insurances but only through a separate travel insurance portal Reviewed on: 31st August 2023

False comfort insurance

I wish I’d read the reviews before insuring with Admiral. Exhaustive details required by them for my claim over a lost item of hand luggage and its contents, including proof of loss claim with the Airline and the police. Some 6 weeks into the claim, a depreciation figure ( 33% of cost ) was offered on the bag itself, and I was then told I’d need to register each of the contents with the Airline website, and then provide receipts or photos of the items as proof of ownership. Gave up and agreed a settlement with my Contents provider within days. Reviewed on: 30th August 2023

Excellent cover

Good travel insurance have my car and van with this company Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

Stolen item claim rejected

Had a claim rejected after having items stolen while on holiday. I provided reasoning which discredited both of the rejection reasons, but they refused to accept it. However, my friend’s claim through NatWest was approved and she had a much smoother process. I would recommend taking your business elsewhere than Admiral. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Do NOT use this appalling company

Had to abandon a week's break in May 23, due to partners I'll health. My claim has been reduced by the excess and then halved,, ignoring that I had made payment for our trip.. Now my partner has to make his own claim and will also be deducted his excess for the same trip. This seems a totally unreasonable way of being compensated in my opinion. Reviewed on: 21st August 2023

Value for money

Very competitive quote, covered all the sections I needed, great value for money Reviewed on: 19th August 2023

Good service

Good price for an annual multi trip policy including cruise cover. Reviewed on: 18th August 2023

Travel

Easy to purchase and renew each year Reviewed on: 17th August 2023

Great cover for little money

In 2022 I purchased an annual travel insurance for myself and husband. I had a major health scare so did some shopping around for best price, already being an admiral customer I was given a 20% discount from the quoted price, this price beat all others hands down. I renewed my policy again for this year as again I was offered a 25% discount for being an existing customer. Have to say they are the best. Reviewed on: 17th August 2023

Fabulous discounts once your a member

We had to claim for a stolen mobile phone while on holiday and luckily this is covered under personal belongings which was eventually dealt with to my full satisfaction Reviewed on: 17th August 2023
