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

Get Covered With Saga

Brilliant customer service

Saga were absolutely brilliant when they dealt with my travel claim last year following my repatriation home at the start of Covid. They were professional and efficient. This is the first time I’ve ever had to claim from my travel insurance and Saga made the experience stress free and simple at what was a very traumatic time for me. Thank you Saga Team.
