Advantages: Convenience, Security, Efficency

Disadvantages: A bit pricey

Although I can agree that they are not the cheapest, I enjoy booking at my local store and have not got time to be looking all over the place for a slightly cheaper policy. I had purchased the holiday and insurance through the shop at the same time. The deal was Free Basic Insurance, and I paid just an additional £20 or so for their best policy - Gold with nill excess.

Last Summer, I was ill on holiday and had to stay on in my hotel overseas. My Thomson rep was brilliant and I was finally allowed to fly home after an additional 7 days. When I arrived home, I completed the claims forms and had a cheque on my doorstep within 10 days, which covered the costs that I had paid. Also, with the insurance that I had purchased, not only did they pay, they also did not deduct an excess.

Just goes to show that you only really appreciate good insurance when you need to claim on it.
