16/10/2008 It takes several clicks to get to the travel insurance quotation form for Engage Mutual, but once you get there, the form is standard. The price they quoted me was among the cheapest I've had and included personal property and money cover. However, aside from those things, it didn't make it obvious what else the policy covered. Still, it was a good quote and I'd consider using them. They also automatically gave me a quote for an annual multi trip policy and again this was reasonably priced and worth consideration.

02/06/2008 Engage offer travel insurance for any age unlike most who stop at around my dad's 70 years - and the quote was surprisingly cheap considering. It was really straightforward to see what was included in the cover right from the very word go. Another unique feature seemed to be the excess reduction waiver which only cost 6 extra for the two of us. The only one negative point of the whole thing was that the system seemed to reset itself a couple of times while getting the quote.

29/05/2008 I didn't find this a clear website. They primarily provide relatively simple life insurance policies but this is not immediately clear. Since they only provide insurance to the over-50s, it is impossible to obtain a quote if you were born after 1959.

14/05/2008 Travel and life insurance. This site is particularly proud of its child investment opportunities. Not a name I have heard of before, but presented in a very sensible bank-like way. They insure for up to 79 year olds with no issue which is far in excess of the usual 65. Sadly the links to get a travel quote did not work, although all others did. Making the most of the government child investment vouchers - and who can blame them!
