SECTION 1

(J – Julie; M = Mike)

J: Hi Mike! It’s Julie. Listen, I know you’re really busy , but we need to book our travel insurance . We’re leaving in a couple of days after all.

M: Yeah sure. I’m on my lunch break, so go ahead!

J: OK, well my first question is what type of insurance do we need? I wasn’t sure which to choose. Do we want the bronze , silver, gold or platinum type of policy?

M: What’s the difference?

J: Well the first only covers medical expenses , the second covers medical and our baggage , and the gold all of that plus consolation , and the platinum covers everything, including legal expenses.

M: OK, well if we’re travelling in two days’ time, we don’t really need the cancellation policy , do we? What do you think?

J: Well, personally, the only thing that’s really necessary is the medical cover .

M: Yeah, but would you think that if you had everything stolen?

J: Yeah, maybe you’re right. Let’s get the gold.

M: Sorry, don’t you mean the silver? I thought we agreed that we don’t need the cancellation cover.

J: Oh yeah. You’re right. Silver it is.

M: So, how much is that going to cost us?

J: Well, there are two of us so let’s see … it’s … pounds for single cover and 40 pounds for a group of up to three people.

M: But there are only two of us.

J: I know, but it’s still cheaper than doing two individual policies. That would cost £50.

M: OK. Group cover it is.

J: Right, now, how are we going to pay? If we pay by debit card, there’ll be a five per cent discount but I only have a credit card and there’s a two and a half per cent charge for that. They don’t have an office in central London so we can’t pay by cash .

M: Oh really? What a pain!

J: OK. well. I’ll just have to use my credit card then.

M: Great. That’s sorted then. What else is there?

J: Well, you know that new expensive camry you bought and you were hoping to take some great pictures with?

M: Yes…

J: Well, the policy only covers equipment up to the value of £200 and didn’t you say it cost 1,000 pounds ?

M: No. I bought it for $1000.

J: Yeah, but that’s still more than 200 pounds isn’t it?

M: Well at the time that was around 500 pounds but it’s worth less than that now, maybe only £300.

J: So … to cover it you’d need to pay extra.

M: Mmm …

J: I just need to check your personal details to complete this online form and then we’ll be sorted.

M: OK. What do you need to know?

J: Firstly, I need to make sure I’ve got your full name. It’s Mike Wood, right?

M: Yep.

J: Right…, next I need your address.

M: It’s 17 Hanley Gardens. Hanley spelt H-A-N-L-E-Y.

J: Just writing that down … 17 Hanley Street…

M: No, Gardens!

J: Oops! My mistake! OK, what’s your date of birth?

M: That’s 23 - 07 - 70 .

J: Right, so now I need an emergency contact number. It’s your mobile right?

M: Yes, it’s. 0793245098

J: Was that 0-8-9?

M: No, 0-9-8. Anything else?

J: Well, they need the main policyholder . Who would that be?

M: I think that would be you, since you’re paying for it with your card.

J: Of course! So I just type in Julie Bennett… Hang on just typing B-E- N-N-E-T-T. OK, we’re just about done. All I need to do is enter the dates of departure and return.

M: Well, we leave on Friday, which is the 16th.

J: No it isn’t. It’ll be the 17th.

M: Are you sure? Let me check my calendar … Oh yes, the 17th.

J: Right, so Friday the 17th of July and returning on Friday the 31st.

M: Hang on; if we fly out on Friday the 31st in the evening, it’ll be the morning of Saturday the 1st by the time we get back with the time difference . We don’t want our policy to run out before we land now, do we?

J: No, we don’t! OK, so return date is Saturday the lst of August. OK, my goodness that certainly took longer than I expected it to. I hope our trip is worth it!

M: Trust me Julie, you’ll love it there, especially as you’ll have your own personal guide .

J: Yes, OK. See you in a couple of days then. Bye!

M: See ya!
