Having some issues with Nationwide FlexPlus account Travel Insurance. Are Nationwide the body who carry responsibility for any problems because I pay them for this included service or can they simply palm me off to the insurance company saying "I have forwarded your letter to UK Insurance as it's their responsibility to manage complaints about Travel Insurance". Is there any redress with Nationwide.

Nationwide don't provide the insurance themselves so you need to deal with the provider.0

It clearly makes sense to deal with the actual insurance provider initially but IMHO the fact that account holders pay Nationwide does mean that Nationwide are ultimately in the loop and so do bear some responsibility, albeit more in a legal/contractual sense than a practical/operational one.
However, much depends on what the complaint actually is in terms of whether Nationwide can realistically help or not, what's the issue?0 -
It is a practical one and therefore UKI clearly need to give the answers, but I wondered if they should give them via Nationwide and Nationwide do the chasing etc, when there is no reply or not in correct timescale.
Basing on goods purchased where the person you pay the money to has to take up the problem, I believe.0 -

Adding Nationwide as an intermediary is only likely to make things take even longer, so I'd continue to deal directly with UKI. What I would do is ensure that if you are not being treated fairly by UKI that you also complain separately to Nationwide.0 -
Nationwide are of course ultimately responsible as it is them who provide the account and benefits so if you're talking about complaints and so on then it is Nationwide you should complain to
however from a practical points of View day-to-day business etc obviously it makes sense to deal with insurance company Direct0 -
Just found this thread. I too have issues with UKI. I'm still waiting for my claim to be resolved concerning my partners death due to an accident on holiday JULY 2017 !
I have complied with every request for paperwork and evidence but still no sign of them reaching an agreement to settle the medical bills. I find it all very stressful.
Is it usual for such claims to take so long?
Who at Nationwide would I complain to about UKI's handling of my claim?
Any advice gratefully received0 -
