Decent

Didn’t take long to get through to a person instead of an automated response and never on hold for long. Also really helpful with getting exactly what I needed done

Great backpacker insurance on a one way ticket

I have yet to start my trip however having a few phone calls with their advisors have made the process very simple.

I am going travelling for 6 months + and purchased backpackers insurance through another company to then realise that it didn't cover you if you did not have a return flight booked. After calling Outbackers insurance they assured me I am fully covered without requiring a return flight having been booked and that I can extend it during my journey if needed.

So far great experience, would reccomend.

Great insurance policies

Great insurance policies, response from staff is so fast if you ever have a questions. I decided to travel further than originally planned so asked if I could upgrade my policy to cover that place and it was so easy and hassle free due to the amazing work of the staff at outbackers. Thank you so much!

Customer Service

We had specific questions about the policy coverage and adding alternative authorised contacts to discuss the policy and were very satisfied with the prompt response that put our minds at rest
