What happens if I don't declare an activity?

We automatically cover many activities but you must tell us about an activity you plan on doing - especially if it's not included as standard. Our easy online form lets you declare all activities to ensure you buy the right protection you need. If you don't declare an activity for which an additional premium may be chargeable it could mean that you won't be covered in the event of a claim or your policy could be invalid. So, to make sure you're fully protected choose the activities that are right for you.


It's important to know:

  1. Many activities are covered as standard with Direct Travel policies.
  2. You must be 18 years old or over to purchase a policy.
  3. We are unable to provide cover for countries where the Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office (FCDO) have advised against all, or all but essential, travel. Please visit the FCDO Foreign Travel Advice page to check the latest warnings. Alternatively, you can call them on 0207 008 5000.
  4. This product is available for UK residents only.
  5. Upper age limits may apply.
  6. The 15% online discount will not apply to any optional, additional cover.
  7. Please check our Policy Wording for full Terms & Conditions. If you have any questions please visit the FAQ page or contact us.
