I have used this insurance company for years as I had never needed to make any claims so never had experienced anything bad with them until the ONE time I ended up hospitalised in Spain and they would not help. I had forgotten to take out the insurance before I left the UK so I purchased the insurance ONE day into my holiday, it wasn’t while over a week later when I was hospitalised that I needed to use it for the first time ever but they wouldn’t grant me the claim as I took out the insurance after I left the UK. Something I do not understand is if you are unable to use the insurance if bought when already on holiday, why does it even give you the option to be able to purchase in the first place once you have put in your dates?! When I spoke with an advisor she claimed it would have asked me if I’m already on holiday.. IT DOES NOT ASK YOU THIS. They have absolutely zero people skills and no compassion at all! I will NEVER be returning here as a customer, they will try everything and anything to dismiss your claim. Terrible terrible company!! Read more Read less

I applied online for an Online Saver issue 87 account, for which I received an email confirming my application. Two weeks later the account had still not been opened! When I rang their office, I was told that there was no trace of my application on their system, despite their earlier email! Further issues followed resulting in me making a formal complaint. Weeks later I received their response - which totally failed to address the main points of my complaint, and they concluded that my complaint should be Dismissed ....despite the fact that there was clearly a failing on their part! I have since contacted them again to challenge their decision. Read more Read less

    Making travel easier

    I would recommend this travel card to anyone who needs flexibility with currency and is worried about bank fees. Very easy to set up and use!

Applied for a post office credit card, stated I would get interest free for 6 months on balance transfer, Just got my first statement from capital one and they charged me over £20 interest, besides a transfer fee of almost £40 (which was not the problem). Spoke to capital one, they stated the card is not eligible for interest free period. Why would one transfer a balance, pay a transfer fee and the interest, which is more than the interest on the card I transferred from. It’s now gone for a dispute resolution. To be honest the post office is still offering interest free on balance transfers for upto 12 months, but it appears capital one have not been told of this promotion. I feel I’ve been scammed and will endeavour to clear it very soon and then close the account. The post office should be ashamed, of what they are doing. How many other people have been scammed in this way and just accepted it, due to their financial situation. Read more Read less
