Have you not been getting this information from EGG in emails?
I've had several emails from EGG on this subject.

Egg usually sends out the email regarding the statements availability or promotion. So I delete the Egg emails without looking most of time.....

There's a lesson there then :rolleyes:

Because I have lots of junk mails every day and it is annoying to read & delete them.

So... can anyone answer my question about these Egg Money benefits please?

Sorry I don't know the answer off the top of my head (emails are at home).

Why don't you click through to the website and read it there.
At least you'll know it's first hand.

For gods sake. Read your emails. It takes very little time. You get all the benefits listed you are asking about.

Well... I spend hours of reading emails every day for the business, and I don't really bother to do that in my leisure time to read any potential junk mails.
Anyway, the email is no longer available now. If you know the answer, will you be kindly letting me know?

I've found the answer now. I'm surprised that I didn't see this previously, although it is my 3rd time visiting this page in the last 2 days. However, please do share your email with me so that I know what has been changed.

All of these benefits (apart from the introductory offer on balance transfers) apply to existing Egg Money customers who applied before 14 July 2009 too.

Egg Money World MasterCard® –
we're updating some of your insurance benefits.

Dear YorkshireBoy

As you're probably already aware, we made some changes to your Egg Money World MasterCard® on 15 May 2009. As part of those changes we added a complimentary range of new insurances all designed to protect the things you buy. We're now updating the insurance benefits you had on your account previously and this message is to inform you about those changes.

On 1 July 2009 we'll be making the following changes to some of the Egg Money insurance benefits which applied to your account before 15 May 2009.

Travel accident policy
This offers cover for you, your partner and dependant children in the event of accidental death or serious injury while travelling, where the fare for that trip has been paid for with Egg Money.

On 1 July 2009 the insurance provider for this policy will change from St Andrews to AIG UK. Key differences in the level of cover are:

Maximum amount of cover will increase from £50,000 to £100,000.
The age of unmarried, dependant children will be limited to 21 (previously 23).

In-transit purchase protection
This cover was designed to protect purchases costing more than £25 from the point of purchase until you got them home (or for 30 days, whichever comes first). As the new purchase protection insurance we added to Egg Money on 15 May 2009 offers a greater level of cover and protects your purchases for 90 days with zero excess, regardless of whether they're in transit or not, we'll be removing in-transit purchase protection.

New Egg Money insurances
From 15 May 2009 the following insurances were added to your Egg Money account, these are all designed to offer extra protection on the things you buy:

Price promise – buy an item using your Egg Money and if you find it cheaper locally within 30 days, we'll refund the difference. Internet purchases are not covered.

Extended warranty – use Egg Money to buy any electrical item and get up to 12 months' additional warranty after the manufacturer's warranty expires.

Purchase protection – buy items with Egg Money anywhere in the world and you're covered against theft, loss or damage for 90 days after purchase.

Event cover – book event tickets using Egg Money and the cost of the ticket is covered if you're unable to attend.For further details about the travel accident policy or any of the new Egg Money insurances, please read the policy information.

Re the e-mails, why not create yourself a subfolder labelled "Egg", and moved any Egg e-mails to here until you've chance/time to read them. That said, you can generally spot any Egg junk mail from the subject title alone! BTW, the one above was headed "Important information about your Egg Money account". I'm at a loss as to why you would think that may be junk mail!
