<h1>Travel Insurance Direct</h1>

Travel Insurance Direct without doubt have one of the most usable sites we have ever reviewed and they have gone to a not-insignificant amount of work to highlight policy details, exclusions and issues.

Review

Travel Insurance Direct has without doubt the most effective online service with their clean, intuitive and fast web site.

In terms of financial backing and security, Travel Insurance Direct has some fine pedigree and is underwritten by Allianz Australia and they have followed WorldNomads.com by integrating the Footprints Network charity API, which is a nice gesture for and insurance company.

I had to cancel a trip after being diagnosed with cancer a week before I was due to go. They have denied my claim for a refund saying it was pre-existing. Absolute crap.

Last year I had to cancel our family holiday due to my daughter being unable to travel(severe broken arm ). Our insurance refund was paid amazingly fast. When we did eventually get on our holiday later that year,my daughter had her camera stolen and lost her Ipod.Our insurance refund was also paid just as fast then as well.The only thing I had to pay a $75- excess on each items.
