Saga Travel insurance reviews (152)

Review of the Saga, Travel insurance:

Do not use their holiday insurance.

1
Had faith until taken ill and needed to make claims. Then it showed policy is worthless. They use on Astrenska,who use Collinson Insurance to handle claims. They don't answer the phone but text you to go on line. Finally got paper copies, sent back 9 May. Suddenly email on 23 may for more information. They received it 25 May. Since then nothing. No replies to my emails, or letters. No updates. Suggest you look at reviews on COLLINSON Insurance company. Saga say they are short of staff When needed, found to be wanting. Take heed. Saga still pushing these policies. And a line in their quote, says how easy it is for you to process a claim. BE WARNED . Reviewed on: 14th June 2023

Great service

Have not had to claim but people have been helpful on the phone when I have rung up. I received some of my premium back when my cruise was cancelled but sadly not all! Reviewed on: 26th August 2020

Saga looks after its customers

Saga were very quick to reassure customers at the start of the pandemic lockdown regarding travel insurance with regular emails. Then they introduced lots of innovative things to do do whilst stuck indoors. All very much appreciated - thank you! Reviewed on: 26th August 2020
