that clearly states you have to be a US citizen::angry:
Who Is Eligible For Coverage
A person who has arranged to take a Covered Trip, completes the enrollment form and pays the required plan payment and is a citizen or resident of the United States of America.

interested to find out what UK policies are out there

Travelex originally developed the policy for Marriott Vacation Club members but then adapted it for DVC as arielrocks shows above (Post #10) for US members.

This may be worth a look:

So back to square one then with the dvc policy only being for US Citizens.

Thanks I'll have a look at this.

It's something that we UK owners need to be mindful of. My friend has 400 points and lost them all due to cancellation from a back injury. Her insurance didn't cover timeshare points/accommodation! Member services weren't interested in the slightest about any offer of goodwill. I would HATE to be in the position so need to get something in place.

i just phoned more than and have been quoted £150 for the yearly family ins, inc end supplier failure and timeshare costs, does this sound ok?

I would just want clear definition of timeshare costs. E.g. Is there a max value as if you wanted to go again you would need £x per point to make that happen.
Also would need to know excess etc.


Price sounds ok though - we used to pay £124 wth barclays for our annual policy.

New thread started ref Travelex. We are as UK residents covered by this policy.

I took out the traveled policy last year.
