I got what I wanted (I think)
The process was efficient and speedy. The only issue for me was when I was progressing through the form to payment, the form appeared to select Domestic Plus for me without an obvious decision or choice from me. Also, when it summarized what the cover was, it included Snow cover. This puzzled me and I had to call to find out that the Snow cover was "automatic" for a domestic policy and at no additional charge. Puzzling since my trip is to North Queensland.
Fortunately/hopefully, no claim yet since I haven't had the trip yet.

Was just perfect in that it suited our needs.
1st time user but found the process quick and easy to follow and organize. We will definitely follow up in the future if the policies suit our needs going forward.

Good price; suitable coverage.
The price is very good, as is the coverage. I did not need to use it, so I cannot comment on that, but I have no reason to believe it is not also fine.

Piece of mind at a great price
Excellent value; set-up process seamless; ideal for older travellers and adventurers with the adventure package add-on appropriate and great value. Repeat customer so information necessary for the assessment of my quote already stored.

Professional and helpful, no hassles
yes, haven't left yet but the initial contact has been very professional and helpful, cancellation of the policy due to Covid was simple and then the requote using the credit note was simple.

Brooke was so easy to talk to and knew her product.
Great policy covering all my needs for remove areas to be travelled. Easy to set up once I outlined my requirements. I will definitely be using Fast cover for my next trip to the Kimberleys.

Good value
The policy seems to be good value and was easy to set up. I need it to cover any issues in the event of a car hire mishap and it is certainly much cheaper than using the car hire companies insurance (especially given it also covers other issues which can occur on holiday). Hopefully I wont need to make a claim but nice to know I have it and it wasn't too costly.

Taken out this policy with your company for the first time. No experience as yet. Holiday is planned for February 2021. I can't make a full report as have not travelled yet!

Very simple online
Every time I get a policy I can't open the document. Seems good value for the money. Thankfully I've never made a claim with fast cover. I would recommend this travel insurance.

A Necessary Evil
We have held a Worldwide Multi-Trip Annual Travel Insurance Policy for many years but did not renew this year due to Covid-19. Booked our first post-lockdown trip and found that no-one is providing Multi-Trip policies at the moment. We only hold travel insurance to cover hire car Excess and now needing to do this trip by trip will be way more expensive than we have had in the past!

Best service
I am glad that I chose Fast Cover for my mother before she went on board on a P&O cruise ship for an Asian tour. The online purchase was easy to process and fees was fair. When part of the passengers were not allowed enter Singapore due to COVID-19, my mother had to get off the ship at Cairns and flew back to Sydney. When I contacted Fast Cover, the customer service was friendly and helpful. They considered the situation and refund the part of premium within a few days. It is a insurance company does care about their customers.

Very unhappy customers
An error at a hospital causing serious problems somehow became a pre existing condition. A very long bow pulled here. It was akin to going to emergency with a sore toe. Staff cut off toe by mistake but insurance company say 'You had the sore toe in the first place'.A lot more serious in our case. Legitimate claim we believe. We can't travel and would have liked our $10,000.00 reimbursed. Patient still suffering and will be ongoing. Communication from company very poor. Had to chase them up constantly.

Questions & Answers
Bobeasked
Can I get cover on a campervan rental?
No answers
Simon G.asked
I'm trying to take out travel insurance for me and my girlfriend and was happy to find that you're offering travel insurance for couples on your website. I proceeded to put in the details to get a quote. Then, in the policy summary before payment, it explicitly states that only 1 adult traveller is covered. There's also no option to add another person. What's the purpose of a couples insurance if it only covers 1 person?
So, if you can't even get your products and sales process right, how can I trust you're getting anything right when I actually have to make a claim?
