What CC with travel insurance/other benefits.

[mechsympathy]

We pay the card off every month but the one we have atm has pretty much zero other benefits as the points scheme they run is worthless.

Ideally we'd like travel ins and breakdown cover including Europe.

Anyone got any recommendations?

Natwest Black is 250 a year, does that seem like a good deal? I've got no idea where else to look...

(Although with their ad campaign you couldn't pay me to have a Capital One card)

Cheers The problem with comparison sites is that they cater for people trying to save money so they concentrate on APR and balance transfer rather than cards you pay for.

Barclays Premier Life, if it doesn't have to be a Credit Card?

£17.50 a month if you're +£100k income, £25.00 a month for the +£60k income bracket.

If you're married or partnered up then get it applied to the joint account, that way you get the benefits for both of you but only 1 fee.

Includes:
Family worldwide travel insurance (inc winter sports)
RAC breakdown, home assistance and nationwide recovery service. Inc European cover.
24/7 Concierge Service
£1000 interest free overdraft (no monthly usage fee either)
Airport Lounge access - up to 6 times a year (airport angels)
24/7 domestic emergency cover (£1000 limit on emergency plumber, electrician etc)
Mobile phone insurance
Gadget insurance, including laptops, mp3 players etc
Free will writing service
24 hour legal advice (free)
Accidental death cover (a measley £7.5k)
Card holder protection insurance
Extended warranty cover - covers any domestic appliance for an additional 12 months beyond manufacturer or extended warranty.

In my case, the family travel insurance and RAC membership covers the yearly cost and I get the rest effectively free.
