Good for over-60 travel insurance

5
I like that for travel insurance their questionnaire of ailments is easy to fill in, doesn't ask silly questions, and doesn't make un-necessary restrictions. They're a lot better than Co-op insurance and tons better than Easyjet. Reviewed on: 20th August 2025

Leg injury in USA

5
In December 2024 I was in the USA. On Christmas Day I slipped on snow, fell, and ruptured the quadriceps tendon in one leg. I was seen in Dartmouth Hospital (Saga covered all the fees) - I was due to fly back to the UK two days later, and because I had to keep the injured leg straight, I needed an upgrade to my flight. Saga arranged all that perfectly, as well as arranging assistance and a car to collect me at the UK airport. All done very smoothly. Reviewed on: 20th August 2025

Reliable, professional and friendly

5
You really only know how good your insurer is when you have to make a claim. Unfortunately, we needed to cancel a holiday at short notice recently for medical reasons, but Saga agreed to pay the claim in full with no fuss. Add to that the friendly but professional service and we will definitely be renewing with Saga. Reviewed on: 19th August 2025

How the life of a claimant was made easier.

5
I recently had a need to make a claim. The lady at Saga was most helpful and endeavoured to minimise the work I needed to do to allow the claim to be assessed. This was exemplified by her over-riding the request of a more inexperienced colleague to provide more written information. Everything was conducted by phone and although I was asked to hold evidence for four weeks in case auditors required proof of my verbal statements, in the end this did not happen. Payment was made promptly and actually appeared in my bank account quicker than I was expecting. I am most satisfied with my experience of the claims process. Reviewed on: 19th August 2025
