Just been on the phone to Comfort doing the renewal. I happened to mention did European recovery cover illness and if hospitalised/couldn't drive would they get van back to UK.
If you are the sole driver named on the policy then Yes. However .....if you have your partner/kids/mate named on the policy as a driver, it is their responsibility to deal with and if it means they have to fly out to that country to get to it so be it.
I have my wife named for "emergencies" but she's happy to let me drive as I do enjoy it, but as we are heading to Sothern Spain in November I know she definitely wouldn't be comfortable having to drive back if I took ill or something.
So if she doesn't feel she can do European driving I will remove her from the policy and put her back on when we get back and just pay any excess for a name change.
I know most people have someone else on the policy for emergencies but it might catch you out if overseas and need recovering.
