Frequently Asked Questions
- If I cancel my policy before travelling, can I get a refund?
-
If for some reason you change your mind about your insurance purchase, Cover-More policies give you peace of mind by offering a 'cooling off period' of 15 business days. During this time, you can obtain a full refund (if you haven't made a claim and your departure date has not passed). If you need to cancel your policy, please phone Flight Centre on 133 133.
- When is the best time to buy your travel insurance policy?
-
A policy can be purchased anytime leading up to your departure date, but it’s a good idea to consider purchasing your policy at the time your trip is booked. Cover-More policies include an option to add cover for cancellation costs on most of their plans and cover starts from the time the policy is purchased.
- How do I choose the right policy?
-
When buying any insurance policy, you should always carefully consider the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) to see if the cover is right for you. The PDS gives you a full rundown on what you're covered for and – more importantly – what you're not covered for. Some things to look out for in the PDS include:
- Benefit sub-limits
- Policy conditions
- Exclusions
- Excess
- What will I be covered for?
-
With the level and type of cover varying between policies, it’s important to understand every level of travel insurance cover is different. You should carefully consider the Product Disclosure Statement before deciding if the policy provides the coverage you need.
- Cover-More Your Cover policy inclusions:
-
Overseas medical and dental expenses
If you get sick or injured overseas, Cover-More includes unlimited~ cover for your overseas treatment costs, including those incurred by overseas doctors, hospitals, ambulances and medications. Many policies have a sub-limit for dental coverage that is far less than what the table of benefits indicates, so make sure your travel insurance policy offers an adequate level of dental cover.

If you aren’t sure or answer yes to any of the below, talk to your travel consultant or call Cover-More on 1300 72 88 22 before you go to ensure you’re protected and can keep travelling.

- What happens if things go wrong?
-
If something goes wrong in a foreign country, your experience may be very confusing, complex and costly. Because of this, always check whether your travel insurance policy gives you access to a 24-hour emergency assistance team so help is there when you need it. Whether you become seriously ill and need to be hospitalised or simply lose your passport and are stuck, every Cover-More policy gives you access to a 24-hour Emergency Assistance team. This team can offer you practical support and guide you through your crisis 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, so you’re never alone in your moment of need.
