I am about to travel for a week to Hong Kong and have an ANZ Platinum card. Do I need to pay the fares using this card and do I need to inform the bank when I am leaving and returning. I assume it only covers the card holder.
Hi Andrew,
Thank you for your inquiry.
You must meet the eligibility requirements to get the complimentary insurance of this ANZ Platinum card. The coverage will automatically activate once you spend a total of least AUD$250 (inclusive of taxes and other charges) for transport or land content costs using the card. The complimentary travel insurance will also cover your spouse and any dependent children that are travelling with you throughout the journey once they meet the eligibility criteria, including payments for their travel bookings using your ANZ Platinum card.
Cheers,
Jason
My family and I are heading to Europe in May 2017 however we are purchasing tickets now, October 2016. Your complimentary insurance covers us from the day we start to travel for a period of 6 months. What happens if a close member of our family (not travellers) becomes seriously ill or dies and we need to cancel the flights prior to departure? Are we covered? Do we get our travel costs covered and reimbursed?
Hi Sandy,
Thanks for you question. Just to confirm that you’ve reached finder.com.au – a comparison website and general information service, not actually ANZ nor QBE Insurance.
The Cancellation and Additional Expenses are actually included in the complimentary travel insurance attached to your eligible ANZ credit card, however, certain conditions apply.
On pages 31 to 33 of the T&Cs, QBE Insurance has not stated that the cancellation and travel expenses will be covered if the reason for cancellation is due to a serious illness or death of a family not travelling with you.
For your reference, I have sent to your email the ANZ travel insurance PDS.
Cheers,
May
Does this insurance cover me if I’m going snowboarding ?
Hi Todd,
Thanks for your question.
Unfortunately, there seems to be no mention of covers on snowboarding and other sports activities on the ANZ credit cards insurance policy.
I have forwarded the PDF of the insurance policy to your email for your perusal. Should you wish to clarify on this further, you’ll need to get in touch with the QBE Insurance Group Limited (insurer) customer service team for direct assistance. You can find their contact information on the document I’ve sent to your email.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,

Hi,
I am interested in the ANZ rewards Travel adventure card. In relation to the travel insurance – it says it is valid for 6 months from the day of departure.
I am heading on a trip for 9 months, can I chose to begin this insurance 3 moths in to my trip to cover the final 6 month period?
What is the average time to be accepted for this card once applied for?
Thank you.
Hi Kayleigh,
Thanks for your inquiry.
For ANZ complimentary travel insurance, the cover begins on the day you depart your home in Australia and ends on your return or after six months of travel, whichever happens first. So for your 9-month travel, you’ll be covered for the first 6 months of your trip. You may want to get a separate insurance cover for the last 3 months of your journey.
As for the ANZ credit card application, if you will apply online, you should receive a response in 60 seconds, with an online application reference number. Once you’re approved, you will usually receive your card and welcome kit within five business days. Your PIN will be mailed two business days after the card is issued.
Hope this has helped.
Cheers,
May
