  • We've been insured through SALT insurance for several years. One year we needed to make two medical claims. We found them helpful & efficient.

  • Hi Becky, I used SALT insurance for my travel to South India from January to March 2016.  Their price was far cheaper than other quotes I received for the 70+ age group.  My stay went without difficulties so I am not able to say how efficient things would be had I need for this.  But I will definitely use them again.  Hope this helps!

    • Oh dear! I wrote that 6 years ago! I've been using them for years.  I never made a claim so I am sure I'm their favourite client! :-) 

  • I must look into that. we're forever looking for a cheap annual insurance that will allow us to stay longer than 90 days. With Elim insurers we have to be in UK on July 1st when it starts so that doesn't work for us.

      Discussion your mission insurance experience and get advice from experts
  • Hi Becky just to add an alternative my family and I used masterpolicy.co.uk and found their service phenomenal. Insurance is one of those nasty things that can only be appraised when things go wrong. In this case my family had to be repatriated and some fairly specific emergency medical care arranged. Masterpolicy are underwritten by ACE European so all contact was through them.
    I guess my advice is to check on the underwriters.
    hope that helps

    • Hi Scot! Thanks for weighing in with your experience. I am sorry that you had to go through such an experience tho'.

      Very good point about the underwriters.

      This Oscar site really is getting that community feel, for me!
  • Yes I have used SALT, just signed up to my second year of health insurence, am in Tanzania and the rates were the best I found, infact there was no increase from 2009-2010.
    I havent had to claim yet...so limited experience, thankfully.
    • Thanks Nicola! And for all the best reasons I hope you don't have to claim!
