When searching for insurance products I always discuss the product with an institutions agent. This is a good way of assessing the quality of the organisation. I have found that “Holiday Extras” agents are amongst the best in the industry. They have always been very knowledgeable about their product, well able to fully explain any points or issues and extremely helpful. Read more Read less

    Browse, exit then wait for discount email

    First you browse and exit, then a day later an email arrives with a 20% discount. Always the same so why not just discount the price on the first visit?
