How are we so much cheaper?

While our cover is generally more comprehensive than that of a car hire company, our cover requires you to pay the excess if you damage your rental car and reclaim it from us. Car hire company cover, while significantly more expensive, offers more convenience as if you damage your rental car there is no excess to pay.

For example, if your excess with the car rental company was €750 and you damaged your rental vehicle, you would pay the rental company €750 and they would pay the remaining cost of the claim. You would then claim back the €750 you paid, from CoverForYou. If you had alternatively taken the car rental company cover your excess would have been reduced to €0 saving you the hassle of paying and reclaiming.

£10,000

Excess Cover

Unlimited trips for a year covering up to £10,000 of excess across the policy duration.

Quick and easy to get travel insurance at a reasonable price. Previous quote from Holiday Extras for the same trip for someone with medical conditions (type 1 diabetes) was nearly 20 times higher.

Alexander Rusinov - March 21, 2025 - Annual Multi-Trip Travel Insurance

I've been with CoverForYou for 4 years now. They offer exactly what my family needs. Renewal is effortless. I keep using comparison websites to make sure I am still on the best possible deal and they never disappoint. I appreciate the loyalty bonus of an increased discount year on year and the monthly draws (even though I have not won anything yet). I have not had raise any claims and fingers crossed that I do not need to.

Trusted Customer - March 21, 2025 - Single Trip Travel Insurance

Very easy to arrange and good value medical insurance. One downside - it would be better to login with a password, rather than wait for a code to be sent to email.
