Re: Travel Insurance - HELP !!! > Bev

[Guest guest]

Hi Bev,

Thank you !

It might not be helpful now but good to know for the future :-)

I'm still hoping that there's somebody out there who had more luck

than I did. I searched in the 'old' messages and found one from

who actually got the band covered by - and this makes me even

more angry - Cover-more !!!

Well, maybe it was just not my day today. First torrential rain, then

this insurance person and last but not least my boss - I have to

admit that I had a lot of uncharitable thoughts today...

OK, let's hope that tomorrow will be a better day !

Cheers,

P.S. Sorry for the whinging :-(
