Frequently asked questions
What will I pay if I make a claim?+
An excess of £50 to £250 applies before the medical cover pays out, so that amount is the first part of a bill you fund yourself. Cover limits reach USD 100,000 travel medical. As a broker, battleface places you with the provider whose terms then apply.
How much medical cover is included on a trip?+
Medical cover of USD 100,000 travel medical sits at the top of the policy set, which is the figure that matters if hospital bills run long abroad. Cover is arranged as travel insurance only, so there is no wider policy to draw on for other losses on the same trip.
Am I too old to buy cover?+
Age eligibility runs up to 79, so older travellers can still be covered rather than priced out. That matters on longer trips and for anyone whose existing medical cover lapses while abroad, and it sits alongside the medical limit of USD 100,000 travel medical.
Is battleface regulated?+
In GB, battleface Insurance Services Ltd is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority under licence 774757. In the US it carries a National Association of Insurance Commissioners National Producer Number, 18731960, alongside Florida and California registrations, so the policy sits inside a regulated framework.
How do I make a claim or reach support?+
Claims can be started online and phone, and support runs on email, phone and help centre, so a mid-trip medical bill can be reported without posting documents. An excess of £50 to £250 is what you fund on each claim, and the help centre covers policy questions before you travel.
What kinds of insurance does battleface sell?+
Only travel insurance, which keeps the product set narrow: a single category rather than a bundle. If you also want home, auto or gadget cover, Euroasia Insurance lists auto, home and travel, and Oney Préstamos ES offers health, life and gadget insurance for a different kind of need.
Is battleface an insurer or a broker?+
It is a broker, not an insurer, so the cover sits with the provider it places you with and battleface is the shop window for it. The legal entity is battleface Insurance Services Ltd, headquartered in the United Kingdom, which sets who to contact if a claim or a refund has to go further.
