No hassle No problems with Saga at all. Easy to deal with. Slightly pricier than expected. No claim so can't comment regarding claims or disputes. Reviewed on: 8th February 2026

Pedantic claim procedure designed to wear you down! I booked SAGA as I had some medical issues involving high BP and atrial Fib so the usual suspects (Bank) refused cover under standard terms so I was f... Read more Reviewed on: 12th March 2026

A very reasonable price when comparing. With other insurers. Sorted it out my self on line then rang up to check everything was correct as it’s very important to be sure I’d be covered ok. Reviewed on: 20th August 2025

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
