Poor Claims Experience

Initial claim process ok.
Payment delayed - my error in bank details
Delayed a month before paying
No reply to 4 emails.

Review by Matthew Stancombe

No contact.

I made contact about a potential claim by email and had no response for 10 working days. I sent a follow up email and then got a reply. Useless. Will not use again.

Review by Catherine Williams

Rated 8.5 on a scale of 0 to 10

A good experience and I never made a claim

I have now used TINZ twice without making a claim and I feel that if or when I need to use you again I feel that a reduction charge for the existing medical conditions would be favourable. [at least to me!]

Review by Esther Coats

Rated 8.0 on a scale of 0 to 10

No problems, good to have

I didn't need a claim, but setting up insurance was easy and stress-free on the night before I travelled around the world. Plus when I nearly missed a transfer flight due to long queues at customs, it was reassuring to know I had any additional possible expenses covered. Staff v helpful on phone when setting up. Will use again.

Review by Jacob Harrison-Adams

Excellent value for money.

Although we did not need to make a claim the policy was reasonably priced and covered absolutely everything. I found the staff most helpful when I made initial queries vis telephone. Highly recommend this company.

Easy Peasy Travel Insurance!

TINZ offered the best value in travel insurance for our family of 4 in comparison to other companies.
It was easy and convenient in doing the whole process online. We would definitely use TINZ again for our future travel insurance.

As expected

As I did not need to make a claim I can only comment on value and experience. The website was easy and quick. I did like that the cover terms was better than some others for about the same cost. I will likely use you guys again and would recommend you guys due to the cover terms.

great service and peace of mind for our babies trip to Hawaii

Our babies had no need to claim anything so it was the peace of mind that we were concerned about. Being away from home without insurance is what nightmares are about. We will definitely be using your company in the future

After reviewing multiple travel insurance options I found you guys to be the most cost effective in terms of what was included and the over all price!
Thanks :)

Review by Sean Horner-Glister

Easy as

The most comprehensive/competetive cover for the price. Really easy and fast to sign up online. Even so; when you book online you always have that nagging feeling in the back of your head, "am I really covered" but on the day I got back I received a TINZ email welcoming me back and a one click link in case I needed to make a claim. Excellent!

Review by David MacInnes

Happy to know you guys were behind me

I've used TINZ on a previous occasion and needs to make a claim. You guys were very obliging and considerate and the claim was settled without any hassles. This trip went smoothly with no need for a claim but it was very re-assuring to know that you guys were behind me should I need help. Thanks for your service,I'll be back

Best Ever

I had to,unfortunately,cancel our trip to Australia & filed a claim for cancelled flight tickets. Guess what,
my claim was settled & entire claimed amount was refunded to my bank account within two working days. No Questions,no clarifications & it was done:). Moreover,at time of choosing my travel insurance, their premium was most competitive. Kudos to TINZ & would definitely insure with them again & have no hesitation in recommending to others.
