I am with SafetyWings pretty much since day one. And even if claim handling is very time consuming and communication pretty often a pain in the ass I supported the idea of the product. But today I found out about the biggest lack in their policy which makes it a total no go. As one might know you need to renew your policy once a year - means each policy is valid for max 12 months. I thought this is just to adjust the monthly rates based on once ages but this is not the idea behind it. The reason for the yearly renewal is that this is how they try to avoid to pay for longer treatment or expensive claims. Imagine the following: You will have a bigger accident in month 11 of your 12 months membership. Initial hospital treatment will be covered by SafetyWing. But the hospital is scheduling your necessary surgery in months 13 (or to be more detailed in month 1 after the renewal of your policy). And imagine the treatment is a bit more complicated and expensive and the injury will need another 6 months to heal. In this case SafetyWing will pay exactly NIL, ZERO, NOTHING. Why? Because the renewal of your policy is considered as a NEW policy under their fine print and the accident that happened in your OLD policy is excluded from the new one as it is a "pre-existing condition". Imagine the situation that you have a longer treatment let's say because of a serious illness like cancer. They will stop their payments the day your original policy will expire and there is nothing you can do against it.
