I claimed on Nationwide travel & medical cover 2 years ago, in Dubai on our way to Vietnam. My wife fractured her patella, so we had to return home. I claimed £12K which they paid, except for the £50 excess on both medical & travel cover. Very pleased with the service.I have european cover with my Nationwide bank account. As it's a joint acount, it covers me and the wife, whatever car we happen to be in (covers the person, not the car). I've only had to use them once when the electronic parking brake on a Passat died on the drive and they used a local breakdown service. They arrived with 30 minutes and took me to the garage of my choice; no complaints at all.
It works out at £156/year but also provides insurance for all four of our smartphones (replaced a brand new Iphone 7 that the lad dropped within 48hrs for £50 excess) and worldwide travel insurance (covers my pre-existing conditions at no extra cost, but never had cause to use it).
