I was very interested in what you wrote.
I just caught sight of an ad for my insurance in my Union blatt.
It specifically claims to be £56.99 cheaper than Tesco (family worldwide,
annual, including winter sports' and that 'levels of cover are comparable'
I was going to contact my Union to tell them this wasn't true (they are 'in
bed with' with this insurer) but thought I'd better check.
I trotted along to the Tesco website and found that you need to have a more
advanced JS than I have available here to access the full details of
coverage. Could you email me the pdf fo the dot-com (hahahaha) below,
please?
Thanks & slainte
