All new Woolworths Travel Insurance policies purchased before 20 April 2014 will receive 10% off the total premium amount. Offer is only valid until this date.
*Children and dependants under 21 covered for free when travelling with an insured adult.
Good policy for expensive computers and cameras. I think it Covers single items valued up to $3,000. (most other insurers cap single items at $1000).
ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm good deal
Any idea how these guys compare with travel insurance direct?
TID has a more descriptive exclusion list. If you do certain one day adrenaline activities, TID specifically excludes them while woolworths hadn't.
Rubbish TID better…longer away and better specs
Please enlighten us to the 'better specs'. Is this just your personal opinion? Not a very good reason to neg the deal I would have thought.
Annual multi-trip policy is better TID….less time allowed away 30vs38 days I think you will find.
Car insurance is better TID
It looks like with the discount the prices are similar to TID, however some of the values for covered events/expenses are higher for one or the other. Personally, the unlimited medical vs $12k when traveling to the "US and A" (Borat accent) makes the Woolies one the winner for my travel plans. Their medical costs are just plain scary.
TID and Woolies have both come up as unlimited medical on my quotes for 10 days in the USA.
I just did again and got the same, unlimited. Maybe I was reading something else. The difference is $187 v $211 for 14 days in the USA, so with 10% off it would be $2 dearer for Woolies.
"EDRTRAVEL" still works for 10% off
TID has also updated their coverage of laptops/cameras to $4000 per item.
Use code: "TripwiseG" from previous posts for 12%? discount
That's fine. This deal is also for persons with dependants included free and persons doing activities that are exclusions on TID.
Aren't Children and Dependants free* on both companies?
Exclusions are definitely something to check out (along with the other million T&Cs)
I've used both, Woolies last year, although I haven't claimed with them. TID I claimed a dropped camera back in 1999 and had no problem, not sure if they have tightened up their claims on accidental damage (I only needed a repair quote).
Cheers grasstown. Perfect timing for a friend's OS trip!
