Frequently asked questions

How are we different from other travel insurance plans?

We provide specialist travel insurance for vacationers and extraordinary travellers who need more than ordinary insurance. Unlike most travel insurance plans, we offer cover for popular tourist destinations worldwide as well as unconventional or remote destinations, including those that are under government travel advisories and COVID-19 restrictions.

You can also purchase our policies while already travelling. When purchasing policies while travelling cover will start 24-hours after purchase and an exclusion for pre-existing medical conditions would re-apply.

Use our Travel Tool to make informed and timely decisions based on factors including trip origin, destination, travel dates and nationality.

Am I covered for COVID-19?

Yes. COVID-19 is treated as any other sickness.

This policy covers You for medical expenses arising from Covid-19 infection while You are outside Home Province or Territory. The Covid-19 benefit is available for COVID-19 (the disease); SARS- CoV-2 (the virus); and any mutation or variation of SARS-CoV-2. For the avoidance of doubt, coverage for COVID-19 is only applicable to Section B, Medical and additional travel expenses and to no other section of this policy.

What is Winter Sports Optional Coverage?

Winter Sports coverage, when selected, covers equipment loss or damage for skiing and snowboarding. It extends the standard benefits of your policy to include claims which may arise when you are participating in winter sports. No coverage will apply in respect of Personal Liability claims.

Winter Sports cover is only available if you are under 75 years old.

Can I see policy documents prior to purchase?

Yes. You can download a copy of the full Policy Wording from our customer library here.

What happens in case of emergencies?

We strongly recommend that you provide your battleface policy and contact information to your travel companies, friends or family members, in case you can’t contact us. In case of an emergency, contact us 24/7 through:

Are there any hidden fees or charges?

No. We are committed to treating our customers fairly and are transparent in everything we do. When buying a policy with us, you will not pay us a fee. Instead we receive a commission from the insurance carriers that we work with.

Am I covered for delay or cancellation caused by adverse weather conditions?

Yes for delays in excess of 24 hours from your planned departure. Cancellation and delay cover applies to outward travel only. There is no cover for additional expenses in the event of travel disruption or delays.

My return trip has been delayed, am I covered for any additional expenses?

If you are delayed by more than 12 hours as a result of an insured event, battleface does provide trip delay cover for all persons included within the policy. Terms and Conditions apply.

Your documentation says that certain pandemics are excluded from cover, does this mean battleface will not cover COVID-19?

The statement within our product information document is to notify you that certain pandemic viruses are excluded e.g. Ebola. battleface does provide cover for medical expenses incurred by an Insured Person aged 65 years or under for the treatment of COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2 and symptoms thereof, subject to the terms and conditions of the policy.

Am I covered if the resort closes due to COVID-19?

No, this product does not cover for resort closure due to Covid-19. If you are notified of a resort closure due to Covid-19 we recommend you contact your travel agent.

Can I claim for lost or stolen baggage?

Yes, our Single-Trip product includes baggage cover up to the limits shown on your policy. There are some important limitations to cover that will apply, so please refer to section E of your Policy Document for full details. For example, we will pay a maximum of 250 for each single article, pair or set of items and up to 100 for mobile phones or smartphones. If you are planning to take expensive items such as cameras, e-readers, games consoles, laptops, mobile/smart phones, tablets, jewelry, watches or other Valuables with you then we recommend you have adequate personal possessions cover under a home contents or other insurance policy.

Please note that baggage claims are subject to the excess (deductible) and paid based on the original value of the goods, less a deduction for wear and tear and loss of value based on the age of the goods at the time that they are lost. An original receipt, valuation report or other satisfactory proof of ownership and value is required to support the claim. Evidence of replacement value is not sufficient.

Why is price my different today than when I first quoted my policy?

We’re always tracking the global travel ecosystem to ensure we’re covering the right risks at the right rates. For example, your destination country is part of our rating algorithm and if that country is high risk when you quote and then is lower risk when you buy, you may see a lower premium for your policy.

What is the battleface Winter Sports Optional Cover?

Winter Sports cover, when selected, covers equipment loss or damage for skiing and snowboarding. It extends the standard benefits of your policy to include claims which may arise when you are participating in winter sports. No cover will apply in respect of Personal Liability claims.

What equipment does Winter Sport cover and for how much?

Equipment includes snowboards, skis, bindings, sticks/poles and boots. Winter Sports equipment is covered up to 750 (500 per single article, set or pair). Hired equipment is also covered (300 per single article, set or pair). Exclusions do apply, so please check the Policy Document for full details.

The excess (deductible) for ski equipment is 50 per person or 100 per family for each incident which gives rise to a claim. Standard excesses will apply for the remaining sections of the policy.

Am I covered when skiing off-piste?

Only if you are skiing with a qualified instructor or guide. In all other cases, skiing off-piste will not be covered.

Am I covered for competitive sports?

Participation in winter sports in a professional capacity or on a competitive basis are not covered.

Do you cover extreme Winter Sports?

There is strictly no cover under the terms and conditions of this policy when engaging in freestyle skiing, ski-jumping, ski flying, ski/snowboard-acrobatics, ski snowboard stunting, extreme skiing/ snowboarding, skeleton and luge or any variations.

Do I need to declare my pre-existing conditions?

Single-Trip Travel Medical product will not cover any claim arising directly or indirectly from a known pre-existing medical condition. You don’t need to disclose your pre-existing conditions to us when you buy a policy, but we may ask for relevant details of your medical history in the event of a claim.

What do you consider to be a pre-existing medical condition?

Any Medical Condition that, within the last 12 months, required any:

surgery, inpatient or outpatient treatment, referrals or investigations of any sort. This includes being on any waiting list, taking any prescription medication, tablets or required medical treatment (This will not apply to common colds, flu or contraceptive medication)
medical advice or treatment for any respiratory condition relating to the lungs or breathing;
medical advice or treatment for any heart, stroke or diabetic condition;

Hypertension or high cholesterol controlled by 1 prescription drug only and where the dosage has not been changed within the last 12 months will not be considered a pre-existing medical condition.

Yes, we will pay for the costs, up to the limit shown on your policy, of providing necessary temporary treatment for the immediate relief of pain or discomfort, and/or emergency repairs to dentures and orthodontic appliances. Please note the policy does not cover for any pre-planned dental treatment or diagnostic procedures.

I need a policy which covers my whole family, can I get a discount?

We offer a 10% discount as standard when you buy a policy covering more than one traveller. Just add each additional traveller at the quotation stage and the discount will automatically be applied.

Am I covered if I take part in sports and activities during my trip?

This insurance excludes certain sports and pastimes. Please see the Policy Document for the list of Excluded Activities: here

Policy changes and cancelling my policy?

You can change your travel dates any time before you travel and cancellation is free within the cooling off period. If you wish to cancel we can offer you a full refund provided you cancel within 14 days of receiving your policy documents and before the start date of your policy.

If you have already embarked on your trip or need to cancel after the 14 days cooling off period, your premium will be refunded pro-rata from the date your instructions are received, provided you have not made a claim.

Can I extend my policy if I plan to travel longer?

The easiest option would be to buy a new policy, to cover the remaining part of your journey. We strongly advise that you buy cover for as long as you need in one go, although we understand that travel plans may change.

Please note that it would be subject to your continuing to meet the eligibility criteria and the pre-existing exclusion would re-apply at the effective date of your new policy. When purchasing policies while travelling cover will start 24-hours after purchase.
