Hi could anyone tell me if there is a company that cover these vouchers as part payment of your holiday.
I phoned Tesco strangely they don't.
I did use a company many years ago but can't remember the name.TIA

    Thank you for your reply.
    No I'm looking for an insurance company that will cover the vouchers I used to part pay for a cruise.

    A bit late replying, but...


    The current Tesco Bank Travel Insurance policy document seems to say they do cover them. Their policy document says:

    Section 1 - Cancelling or cutting short a trip...

    What is not covered...

    9. Costs paid for using any reward scheme (except for Tesco Clubcard points where we will arrange for your points to be replaced, subject to any excess, if the circumstances of the claim are covered)



    See: page 20 of https://travelinsurance.tescobank.com/Branding/allpwps/docs/TescoDirectPW20091.pdf

    (Or access the the policy document from this page: https://www.tescobank.com/travel-insurance/ )

    So it sounds like you'd get your points back... but as the "3x value" offer has finished, I suspect you'd only get "2x value" when you exchange the points again.

    Thank you very much for your reply eddddy.
    That's a great help.

    I cant believe I phoned and was told they didn't cover them.I've spent the last couple of days asking other companies but one company said this morning they would get back to me but never did.You can't get the staff these days🤦‍♀️

    I had used £340 worth of vouchers and it would be a shame to loose but hopefully won't be needed🤞
     Athough I would only get the points back it would be better than nothing.
    Thanks again appreciated.
