What our members say

“My sincere thanks”

“Having just joined the Trinity Travel Cover, I had to call upon them when a serious leg injury forced me to cancel much-anticipated Christmas cruise. I’d never made a travel insurance claim before, but they made it quite straightforward and were happy to discuss things over the phone in a friendly way. Some weeks after having made the claim, I was delighted to receive a full refund on my trip, minus only my excess. Would you be kind enough to pass on my thanks to all parties involved. Needless to say, I remain a customer, and am very grateful to you at FPS for providing such a good travel insurance deal in the first place. “
