Review of the Admiral, Travel insurance:

Charlatans

We had a bag and some possessions stolen whilst on holiday and whilst this was traumatic enough, this was nothing compared to trying to make a claim. We submitted the information asked for in terms of summarising what was stolen and received a reply asking for receipts. We didn't have many of these but did have receipts for the cash stolen, other items we had for years and are not in the habit of keeping receipts in the off chance that items might be stolen at a later date whilst abroad. We received a phone call in December to discuss the claim and didn't hear back from them until I sent them a reminder by email. They then said could we provide photos of us with the items, again something we didn't have. They have now said they cannot replace the cash as it is not on the police report, although we gave them a copy of the report and they refuse to contact the Police for more information stating this is our job! Interestingly they will replace te other items, even though they are not on the Police report either - where is the consistency? When asked if we could complain we were told we can't and had to write to the same person who has made the decision! My advice is, if you are going to use Admiral, only take on holiday things which you have a receipt for and ensure you also take a photograph of each item before you pack it.
