    Are you sure that you dialled the correct number? They only sell their own Annual Travel Insurance policy.
    Maybe you should try again. :confused:

    I booked some cheap multistop flights through Ebookers today and the lady in India quoted me £112.50 for two adults and a child to the US for 2 weeks. I said No as I'd seen it elsewhere for £80 and she immediately offered it to me for £70. She read through the coverage and I went with it because I consider AiG to be reputable, so I'm quite pleased. We only go away once every few years, so it's not worth us getting an annual policy.

    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    Columbus Direct do it - you have to pick it as an activity, but it is specifically mentioned - website here , hope this helps!
    if it's more than 10 stone, and that hairy, it's probably not a dog...it may be a wookie.
  • I took Martin's advice and shopped around for annual travel insurance.

    We took out an Annual policy with 'Travel Insurance Web' in June.

    Very sadly, my Father-In-Law died suddenly from a stoke 3 days before we were due to depart on holiday in August.

    We had to jump through lots of hoops to make our claim - including asking his GP to complete a medical form twice - once to indicate that it wasn't a pre-existing condition and then again to indicate that she wasn't involved in the treatment of this condition. We then had to ask her to write an additional letter to confirm the date of the stroke.

    But finally we got our settlement cheque in the post this morning - for the full amount claimed (minus the £50 per person excess as expected).

    I think it goes to show that it is certainly worth persevering.

    My partner is 34 years old, and has a "pre-existing medical condition" ie diabetes.

    Has anyone any suggestions for cheap annual (european) insurance policies?

    Thank you in anticipation.
