Help — where to go next

This site explains travel insurance. It cannot lodge your claim, bind a policy, or overrule an insurer.

General information only. Not personal advice and not a PDS. Policy wordings, excesses, age limits, medical screening and exclusions change. Read the current Product Disclosure Statement and confirm cover with the insurer before you buy.

  • Not a broker
  • Not claims staff
  • FAQ first
  • AFCA for disputes

Direct answer: For cover questions, use the FAQ and compare framework. For a correction or partnership note, use contact. For a dispute with an insurer, use the insurer’s IDR process and then AFCA.

We cannot

  • Quote or bind a policy
  • Predict a claim outcome
  • Provide personal financial advice
  • Speak to an insurer as your representative
  • Decode a medical file you email us
  • Rank a #1 insurer for your family

If you are in an emergency overseas, call local emergency services and the assistance number on your certificate, not this inbox.

Official doors we are not

ASIC MoneySmart is consumer education from the regulator’s world. Smartraveller is destination advice from DFAT. AFCA is disputes. Use them. We link them because they are not us.

Corrections

If a brand has left the market or a slug is wrong, email callum.sherwood.seo@gmail.com. Do not send health records.

This help page is general information. It is not an emergency service.

Questions people ask

Can you tell me which policy to buy?+

No. That would be personal advice. We publish educational frameworks. A licensed adviser can give personal advice; we cannot.

Compare the wording, not a leaderboard

Start with the comparison framework or a brand hub. Read the current PDS before you buy. We do not sell policies or invent ratings.
