Hey guys I purchased the top STA Insurance when i booked my flights and stuff and was just wwondering if everyone thinks this cover will be enough? Did anyone else get their insurance from STA? Cheers
hey i booked mine on the link frm the yummy site, i paid £45 for just health insurance, gonna risk travel insurance as my flight covers me for baggage so gonna just risk not havin it, what do peeps think?
i think im gonna get travel insurance, cos i plan on traveling after and during the program if i can. Also the baggage insurance of the medical insurance on yummys site is only about $200 when the contents of my bags will be like over $2000. If the travel insurence doesn't cover me while im working then i'll get the one from yummys site too.
I decided last year that I wasn't convinced the STA insurance would cover me. The problem is that as a condition of the visa you need a certain level of insurance - entry can, apparently, be refused if you're not sufficiently insured. I'm interested to see Yummy are offering the health insurance for £45 - last year Disney recommended a company called Gateway, and it was a lot more than that!
I did not go with STA or the one from yummy jobs, as did not think it covered enough. So i have gone with a company called insure and go from the web, they have quite a few packages, the one i went with is called backpacker gold, and it has no excess, so can claim on everything. If you want to have a look goto www.insureandgo.com 8)
