Advantages: Easy to use, Variety of policies available at good prices, Option to have the policy mailed to you

Disadvantages: None that I can think of

I visited the options travel insurance website after I experienced problems using the insureandgo website. The payment page on the insureandgo website wouldn't load so I wasn't able to purchase the policy I was quoted.

Anyway, the options travel insurance site is easy enough to use and there are a range of policies available that give various levels of coverage depending on how much you want to spend. The policy I went for was very similar to the one I originally obtained from insureandgo. Some of the coverage was slightly higher and the policy I opted for excluded baggage cover. I didn't consider this to be important since I was only going away for 3 days and I wouldn't be taking much baggage with me. The prices of the policies from both sites are similar, and are much cheaper than policies sold by high street names such as Boots, Thomas Cook, Marks & Spencer etc.

I'm glad to say that the payment page on the options travel insurance site worked and I am now insured!

One final note, both of the online travel insurance sites issue you with an online policy document that you can print out. The options travel insurance site gives you the option to have an printed policy document posted to you, which is a nice touch. I didn't opt for this because I was feeling generous and decided to help them keep costs down.
