Good response and easy to pay if a little expensive
Good response and easy to pay. The premium was a little higher than I was expecting.

Don't extend during trip
Don't extend during trip! Purchased original policy for 6m and was well priced and good quality. The trip was extended my 2wks and the price to cover was over half the original cost again with no claims during original period away. I was shocked by the price but had to purchase as no other option. I don't see this as Treating Customers Fairly which is meant to be a pillar of FCA Laws.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with your extension pricing.
As you purchased a backpacker policy the minimum policy (or extension) length is 1 month and the longer the policy or extension you buy the better the value. All extensions are priced based on the current rates for a policy, for example for your selection (Gold cover to Worldwide excluding USA, Canada, Mexico & Carribean) the rates are currently:
1 month: £102.00
3 months: £196.75
6 months: £297.50
12 months: £439.50
You can verify these prices directly on our website. While you only needed a 17 day extension we've had to charge you for the minimum 1 month duration. We've charged the same price as you would pay for a new policy so you havn't been penalised for buying an extension and have therefore been treated fairly.
Talked to Suzie

Professional and informative
Anca was very professional and at the same time she put me at ease. She listened attentively to my query and she asked questions to fully understand my needs.
She gave me all the information I needed and made sure I was ready for my trip.
Thank you again

Heartless & money grabbing!
My best friend of 10yrs and travel companion died suddenly whilst in Australia this week. I spoke to outbacker about what cover I had for flying home/ending my trip early, and after some toing and froing they decided I wouldn't be covered as he isn't deemed a 'close family member'. He was like a brother to me. This week has been the worst week I've ever lived through and not only have they declined to offer any assistance, they also told me that if I did fly home to attend his funeral, my insurance would be void after a total of 14 days (including travel days). Absolutely heartless money grabbing company who are supposed to be there for you when the worst happens!!

Thank you for your review and for bringing this to our attention.
We are sorry to hear you have had a bad claims experiance and we've investigated with CEGA (the claims handler appointed by the insurer of your policy) to understand why your claim was declined. It appears that they did not consider your friend to be a travelling companion as they didn't fly out at the same time as you. We don't feel this is a sufficient sole measure to define a travelling companion, and, have asked them to reconsider if they meet that criteria based on how you travelled together once you reached Australia.
I understand they are now reconsidering your case on this basis. If once they have done so you continue to be unhappy with their decision please let us know so we can investigate on your behalf further.
Please note while the policy does normally allow a maximum break in cover of 14 days in the UK we can in exceptional circumstances (such as this) extend this if you contact our customer services team.
Bradley was super helpful on the phone…
Bradley was super helpful on the phone with sorting out an insurance policy. He also had some great advice from when he had been travelling and passed them over to ensure I have the best experience possible, I can’t thank him enough for his time and assistance!

STILL stuck in Thailand.., AVOID this company
Following up on my previous review. We are still stuck in Thailand, have no firm date on reparation. They do not seem to have enough doctors or maybe they are just inept. They do not work 24 hours it is just answering service which is quite frankly pointless. I was promised confirmation of our return details yesterday but nothing and the problem is we were supposed to be flying home yesterday!! They messed it up and we are still stuck here with no end in sight. My daughter needs to be assessed in the UK with regards to her injuries but they do not seem at all bothered.
AVOID this company it is too stressful.
Not sure how they get the review star rating!!!

Thank you for your review.
We have reviewed your case with CEGA (the assistance company appointed by the insurer of your policy).
While we understand that your daughter wished to be repatriated as soon as she left hospital this was a complex case where she had been in hospital for a month due to a motorcycle accident.
While you did make CEGA aware of provisional fit to fly date, they advised that any repatriation was dependent on the availability of a medical escort as she required a doctor on board the aircraft, it was slightly delayed beyond normal due to a bank holiday in Thailand. It was further complicated by a number of amendments to the repatriation plan being required to ensure she did not experiance any discomfort during the repatriation.
I understand she was repatriated to the UK three days after leaving this review.
Great and prompt customer service
Great and prompt customer service! Muskaan has helped me out lots regarding different matters and when it was too expensive to add on winter sports for a few days (due to the policy requiring that I paid for the remainder of my policy rather than the few days that I needed it) they were not only very honest regarding this but also pointed me in the right direction.
