And found it easier than any other insurance claim I have made. My gold visa is with Challange/Westpac and they were great. I claimed an expensive video camera. I actually also carried HBF travel insurance for the same trip. HBF only paid me $200 because I did not insure the camera seperately. Only claimed on the Visa Gold insurance when a freind said to me if I had one and I did and had used my FF points for one of our tickets and paid by card for the complete rest. They paid me $2000 for the camera plus paid for the quote for repair which was $135 (camera costed more to repair than replace). My camera replacement cost was A$4000 and they arranged with a wholesaler (Michael's if my memory serves me)over the east for the same camera, ended up costing me about A$235 out of my own pocket. Could'nt have been more satified.
