The big brand travel agents are continuing to rip off customers with their ridiculous travel insurance prices.

A survey, conducted by Dipstick Research, points out that consumers should always look around for their cover as hefty savings of £218 for Single Trip European cover and £360 for Annual European cover can be made by purchasing comparative cover from TravelInsurance.co.uk, rather than a regular high street travel agent.

To cover a family visiting Spain for 2 weeks, First Choice would charge a whopping £248 – the price that topped the rip off charts for single trip cover. However when asked how much its annual cover including winter sports would be, the price given was a wopping £200. InsureandGo’s cover would cost just £29.17.
