Select and Cover

If you’re considering taking out Travel Insurance today, please remember that it’s designed to cover for unforeseen events. Because of rolling, global media coverage, coronavirus is now a known event. This means that depending on where you travel, you may not be covered for cancellation or abandonment. Before buying a policy and/or booking a trip, please read the policy documents (specifically page 28, Section D and point 2 within the ‘what’s not covered’ section). For more information, see our coronavirus guidance.

More details

Make sure you're not duplicating cover

Does your mobile package already include insurance? When you purchased your new car did it come with breakdown insurance? Do you already have an annual travel insurance policy that won't run out for months?
You should review the terms and conditions of your existing cover and compare against the Select and Cover options that you are considering to understand what best meets your needs.

Simple pricing

Select and Cover costs £19.50 a month for 3 options. For every further option you add, we'll adjust the price. Here are the costs:

3 options — £19.50 a month (£234 a year)
4 options — £26.00 a month (£312 a year)
5 options — £32.50 a month (£390 a year)
6 options — £39.00 a month (£468 a year)
7 options — £45.50 a month (£546 a year)

You'll see the monthly cost as you make your selections when you apply.

Flexible options

You can switch choices annually as your circumstances change. You can swap all your options during an annual review period — we’ll send you a reminder to review your options on the anniversary of your policy.

You can also add and remove 1 option during each year, so long as you maintain a minimum of 3.

Immediate cover

If you sign up online your cover starts straight away and is continuous until you cancel your policy. So once you're covered, you're covered.

Kids included

The cover provided by each option is for you and your family, living at the address shown on your current policy schedule.

Cover for children will end on the policy anniversary after they turn 18 – or 23 if still in full-time education and living at home with you outside term time.

Excess and exclusions

You'll need to pay excess for claims on some options. Restrictions, exclusions, and Terms and Conditions apply. See the information document for each choice above for further details.

Frequently asked questions

Do you need 3 or more of the options available?

Think about your personal circumstances – would it be better for you to buy individual products?

Make sure you're not duplicating cover, for example: do you have an annual travel insurance policy that won't run out for months? Does your mobile package already include insurance?

If you're looking to make sure you’re covered for something specific – such as breakdown insurance that covers you for home start – then check full details of what the policy covers in the Terms and Conditions.

It's continuing cover so you never have to worry about your policy running out because you haven't renewed it.

It runs month-to-month and you can cancel at any time with no exit fee - just check the Terms & Conditions to see how this works.

Note: Starter Life cover ends on the anniversary after you reach the age of 50.

Worldwide Travel cover ends on the anniversary after you reach the age of 70.

Select and Cover is exclusive to HSBC UK customers – so you won't find it anywhere else. Are you eligible? Check the full details.

Some products, such as Travel and Starter Life insurance, have age limits, so check the individual product details to see if you're eligible.

If you take out a policy it will also cover:

your spouse, domestic or civil partner who lives with you at the same address; and
any dependent children under 18 years of age who live at home with you (or under 23 if still in full-time education and living at home with you outside of term time)

There's no need to complete lengthy medical declarations or make regular disclosures. And in most cases sudden and unexpected changes will be covered by this policy whether it’s related to an existing condition or a new condition.

Please check the Terms & Conditions for all of the information on ‘Your Health’ to understand what is and isn’t covered. For further assistance call us on 0345 051 1351.

Yes. Here’s how it works:

You can make unlimited changes to your selection within an initial 30-day cooling off period from the start of your policy.

We’ll also send you an annual reminder to review your policy and check it’s still right for you. For 30 days before your policy anniversary you can make unlimited changes to your selection. Changes will become effective from your policy anniversary.

In between the cooling off period and the anniversary window, you can also add 1 and remove 1 option from your selection, as long as you maintain a minimum of 3 options. The same applies in the periods between each subsequent anniversary window.

You can also cancel your policy at any time with no exit fee – just check the Terms & Conditions to see how this works. You won't be able to repurchase Select and Cover for 6 months after cancellation.
