PZU travel insurance for SEB clients received an update

From 1 December, PZU Insurance is offering travel insurance to the clients of SEB under new terms and conditions. The most important changes are the introduction of the Silver travel insurance package and the increase in maximum insurance indemnities in all packages.

In cooperation with PZU, SEB updated the travel insurance packages. Credit-travel insurance was replaced by Silver travel insurance, which is available to all clients of SEB and no longer requires a credit card. The selection still includes Gold travel insurance, which can now be applied for by the holders of the Gold debit or credit card, and Child travel insurance.

The maximum insurance indemnities were also increased as of December. In the case of Gold and Silver travel insurance, the insured sum is now EUR 500,000, and in the case of Child travel insurance, EUR 100,000. If multiple insured persons suffer injuries or multiple insured events occur, in the case of Gold and Silver travel insurance the total indemnity shall be not exceed EUR 500,000, and in the case of Child travel insurance, EUR 100,000.

As another update, medical and treatment expenses incurred during a trip as the result of an unexpected illness or accident will be reimbursed with travel insurance. The cover will also extend to any costs related to transporting the affected person to Estonia and the costs of extending a trip when the insured person is unable to return home at the planned time due to an accident or illness. When hospital treatment lasts for more than 10 days, the visitation costs of a person close to them will be reimbursed for up to a 5-day trip abroad.

Travel interruption insurance helps with new airplane tickets and living expenses

In the case of any unexpected changes in the travel schedule, the insurance will cover the cost of replacement plane tickets to the same destination. If the departure is delayed by more than 12 hours the essential living, transport and accommodation costs shall be reimbursed. PZU travel insurance also covers any expenses related to the trip being cancelled. In that case, the part of the travel package that has already been purchased or booked with no refund—e.g. for accommodation, plane tickets, car rental, concert tickets or guided tours—will be reimbursed.

The annual insurance premium for Silver travel insurance is EUR 78 per person. Gold travel insurance covers the card holder and three of their family members, and the annual insurance premium is EUR 69. Child travel insurance can be concluded along with Gold or Silver travel insurance for a child of an SEB client who is under 18. The annual insurance premium is EUR 25.

SEB clients can conclude their travel insurance via the Internet Bank or at a branch.
