Review of the Post Office, Travel Insurance:

Awful at all aspects of customer service

1
Used as felt they would be reliable, excellent at taking your money. When it comes to making a claim for a cancelled flight, obstacle after obstacle; no interest in listening to any reason, refused to offer any assistance or pay the claim. Disgraceful and a life long customer lost Reviewed on: 9th September 2024

Gadget Purchased - Still No phone after more than a month.

I purchased gadget cover with my travel insurance, unfortunately, I had to make a claim last month. I had to wait a week for a telephone interview to answer questions, then had to fill in additional information on a form and send it away. It has now been more than a month and I still havent heard anything about the status of my claim. Reviewed on: 15th November 2018

My 14 year old daughter went on holiday with her Aunt and cousin. Our family travel insurance did NOT cover our daughter’s trip. My sister is with Post Office travel Insurance, which does allow older children on a family policy to travel with a responsible adult, My sister has a good experience with Post Office Annual travel insurance, if we had taken out their annual family policy, our daughter’s trip would have been covered, so we are going to switch to them when our policy is due for renewal Reviewed on: 23rd September 2018

Got annual cover, got Gastroenteritis and ended up in hospital. Post Office paid all of my taxi bills to and from hospital and were incredibly helpful and friendly. Reassured me about the cost of the hospital stay (was nothing due to E111) and paid me back my taxi's without a fuss. Brilliant service. Reviewed on: 20th September 2018

I got my travel insurance with the Post Office for my recent trip and it works out as quite a good deal with the cover for 1 year! Very easy to go into my local branch to sign up. Reviewed on: 25th July 2017
