NetCoverDirect Ltd

Netcoverdirect cuts out the middlemen to provide quality short trip cover at direct prices. They also provide annual cover for people under 69 years at outset, and ski cover.

Silver Surfers

Internet insurance provider Netcoverdirect UK proudly boast that:
"Old is no longer a word in our vocabulary!".
Which is why their Silver Surfer cover for 65-75 year olds caught our eye. Couples (of either gender) get a 10% discount.

Originally known (and main website) as Travelcoverdirect.co.uk Ltd, the company first surfaced on the net in 1997.

An internet-only enterprise, it reckons its prices are among the most competitive in the market today because there are no middlemen to pay.

There are the usual questions about medical conditions and medication but if you are accepted then there is NO increase in premium to pay. The online form is a little basic but the instructions are clear and a couple of minutes could see you to a nice quote.

Price match

Underwritten by Lloyd's of London, they're so confident that they offer the cheapest price that they give a price match guarantee.

Find any Lloyd's of London travel insurance with like-for-like benefits at a better price and they'll match it.

The site is easy to navigate and they don't ask nosy questions if you're just looking for a quote.

If you decide to buy, the response is fast and before you know it you've got your electronic covernote.
