SportsCover Direct Reviews 

Erin was superb in customer support.

Good choice of cover with easy to understand information about the insurance cover on offer....Lots of travel insurers say they cover sport... but read the small print....and most exclude playing in competitions and if sport is the main purpose of the trip. Sportscover Direct insursance does what it says!

Very straight forward - simple policies that cover me world wide.

It was easy to explore and buy the policy.

I was able to cover hiking up to 4500m for just a few days without having to buy insurance that was already covered by my annual policy. Good value and a great bolt-on.

Excellent service!
Thank you

Easy website with lots of options to choose from.

Wanted good cover at competitive price and this deal gave me both of those.

Very easy to find the insurance cover you are looking for. Forms are straight forward and easy to understand. Would recommend.

Automatic renewal, ample advanced warning. Great!

Quick check to ensure competitive price and let the automatic renewal proceed.

Simple and great insurance for shooting. A must have.
Very happy

You can only really judge how good an insurance product is when you actually have to make a claim. Unfortunately, the vast majority of reviews here seem to be about the purchasing experience, rather than what happens when you need the insurer to help you.

I suffered an injury while on holiday. The policy only covers public medical care, which within the EU is already available to UK residents through the Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) arrangements. In practice, all Sports Cover Direct did in relation to my medical treatment was guide me through the process of accessing this government-funded scheme.

I also had to claim for non-medical costs resulting from the injury, including curtailing my holiday and repatriating my vehicle. I submitted that claim almost three months ago and have still received no decision or meaningful update.

I have chased repeatedly by phone, but staff say they are unable to provide any information about the progress of the claim. I have now submitted a formal complaint, which I have been told may take up to eight weeks to review.

The whole experience has been a complete shambles.

I have only had to claim on travel insurance once before, through Aviva via Barclays, and the difference in experience is night and day.

Based on my experience, I would not recommend this product. Buying insurance is easy; the real test is what happens when something goes wrong, and that is where Sports Cover Direct has completely failed me.

The online application process is very straightforward and the policy easy to understand. The medical declaration bit was clear and simple. Good value for a quality product. I had to telephone for a few minor matters - the answers were clear and helpful.

Bbbbbbbbb brilliant

Having had golf insurance with SportsCover Direct for the last 12 months I believe they tick the boxes with regards to value for money. An issue with dealing with my payment was dealt with quickly and effortlessly and resolved in good time. As with all insurance you never know until you have to claim but upto now the service has been good.

Easy to set up.
Comprehensive list of sports covered.

Simple, straightforward process for arranging a sports related insurance including international cover.

Quick, easy and good value

Really straightforward process from start to finish. I took out rifle insurance with SportsCover and the whole thing was quick and easy to complete online.

The price was very reasonable too, especially for the cover provided. No unnecessary hassle or complicated process — just simple, straightforward insurance.

Very happy with the service and would recommend.
