4 Your Travel Plus Pack
Adding a Pack to your Current Account
A Pack is a set of services (such as insurance)
that can be added to a qualifying current
account. You can do this in the Barclays
app or Online Banking, by calling us or
visiting a branch. These terms cover your
Pack and supplement and amend the Retail
Customer Agreement, which can be found
in our ’Barclays and You’ leaflet. If there’s
inconsistency between these and the
Customer Agreement, these terms take priority
in relation to the Packs.
The benefits and services in the Packs may be
provided to you by another provider within the
Barclays Group of companies or by a provider
outside that group.
What’s a qualifying account?
You can only add a Pack to a Barclays Bank
Account, Barclays Basic Current Account,
Student Additions, Higher Education Account
or Premier Current Account or if you have
another account with us that we tell you is a
qualifying account.
Eligibility for Pack benefits
Before choosing a Pack, you should check that
you are eligible for the benefits under each
policy or feature (we will provide information
to help you do this). For instance, you may not
be eligible to claim for certain benefits because
of your age, you have a pre-existing medical
condition or some activities or equipment may
not be covered. You will only be covered by any
of the insurance benefits of Packs if you are a
UK resident. To count as UK resident, you must
spend at least 183 days a year within the UK.
What you pay
You pay a monthly fee for each Pack that
you add to a qualifying current account.
You’ll find the current fees in the ’Barclays
Tariff for Personal Customers’, which is
available in branch, by calling us or at
barclays.co.uk/rca. No part of a Pack fee
is attributable to any particular benefit or
service in your Pack. You will not be entitled
to a refund or reduction in the Pack Fee if you
choose not to use a benefit or service, you’re
not eligible for a benefit or service, or it’s not
otherwise available to you.
You may be able to add additional features to the
services included in a Pack and we’ll tell you what
these cost before you choose to add them.
Removing a Pack
When you can remove a Pack:
For most Packs, you can cancel or change
the Pack at any time. However, if you took
out a Travel Pack or Travel Plus Pack on or
after 1 September 2016, you must keep it for
six months from that date, and pay the Pack
fee for those six months. See below for more
information about the Travel or Travel Plus
Pack.
We may not let you re-select the same Pack for
a certain period after you cancel or change it.
We’ll tell you if any restrictions apply when you
cancel or change the Pack.

months, it is no longer a qualifying account or

Agreement.
We can also close your account or remove a
Pack by giving you at least two months’ notice
in writing for any reason.
What happens when a Pack is removed?
If you cancel or we remove a Pack, you’ll no
longer be entitled to the benefits or services
included in it. When the last Pack is removed
from your qualifying account, you’ll no longer
be entitled to any interest free arranged

Automated decision making
We carry out automated decision making to
decide whether we can provide insurance to
you and on what terms, deal with claims or
carry out fraud checks. In particular we use an
automated underwriting engine to provide a
quote for this product using the information we
have collected.
How we share your personal information
with others
We may share your personal information:-
With the Aviva group, our agents and third parties
who provide services to us, your bank and other
insurers (either directly or via those acting for the
insurer such as travel administration companies,
loss adjusters or investigators) to help us
administer our products and services;
With regulatory bodies and law enforcement
bodies, including the police, e.g. if we are required
to do so to comply with a relevant legal or
regulatory obligation;
With other organisations including insurers,
public bodies and the police (either directly or
using shared databases) for fraud prevention and
detection purposes;
With reinsurers who provide reinsurance
services to Aviva and for each other. Reinsurers
will use your data to decide whether to provide
reinsurance cover, assess and deal with
reinsurance claims and to meet legal obligations.
They will keep your data for the period necessary
for these purposes and may need to disclose it to
other companies within their group, their agents
and third party service providers, law enforcement
and regulatory bodies
Some of the organisations we share information with
may be located outside of the European Economic
Area (“EEA”). We’ll always take steps to ensure that
any transfer of information outside of Europe is
carefully managed to protect your privacy rights.
For more information on this please see our Privacy
Policy or contact us.
How long we keep your personal information for
We maintain a retention policy to ensure we
only keep personal information for as long as we
reasonably need it for the purposes explained in this
notice. We need to keep information for the period
necessary to administer your insurance and deal
with claims and queries on your policy. We may also
need to keep information after our relationship with
you has ended, for example to ensure we have an
accurate record in the event of any complaints or
challenges, carry out relevant fraud checks, or where
we are required to do so for legal, regulatory or tax
purposes.

course.
Changes (together with the reasons for such changes) will be notified to you in writing at least 30 days in advance.

solution for any reason, hotel accommodation
or alternative transport will be provided instead

unless specifically included in the Onward
Travel cover described above, any other

Breakdown Cover policy
European Breakdown Cover
European Breakdown Cover is designed to offer you
assistance in the event of breakdown, road traffic
accident, or fire or theft of your eligible vehicle, or
illness of the only qualified driver in a European
Territory.
This section describes what you are entitled to
under European Breakdown Cover and how to use
the service. It must be read in conjunction with the
General Terms, Costs and General Exclusions
sections printed elsewhere in this policy.
Important Information
Credit card requirement
Car hire companies insist on having valid credit card
details at the time of booking and the card must be
produced when collecting a hire car. Therefore, if a
hire car is necessary for you to continue your
journey, we will require your credit card details to
arrange this. Please see section 1 – Replacement
car and section 6 – Journey continuation. We will
also require your credit card details if we arrange a
service for you which is not covered by your policy
or if it exceeds the European Breakdown Cover limit.
Mobile phones
The regulations on the temporary importation and
use of mobile phones vary from country to country.
Please check with your service provider that your
phone meets the requirements and necessary
standards for the countries in which you
are travelling.
Whilst convenient, mobile phones are expensive to
use and you should note some service providers
charge for calls to freephone numbers. It may
also not be possible for an RAC Control Centre to
return a call to a mobile phone, however where we
are able to return your call, you may still have to
pay the costs of the international call. Please note
mobile phone calls are not covered under European
Breakdown Cover and we regret that we cannot
reimburse any costs incurred. You are therefore
recommended to use a conventional phone
wherever possible.
In case of difficulty in reaching an emergency
number or to check cost please contact the
service provider of your mobile phone, or use a
conventional phone.
Breakdowns on European Territory motorways
If you break down on a motorway in European
Territory use the roadside emergency telephones
where provided. You cannot normally call RAC
Control Centres from these. You will be connected
to the police or authorised motorway service, who
will send a breakdown recovery vehicle. Please note
that due to local legislation the RAC Control Centre
is not able to send a breakdown recovery vehicle to
a motorway location. If you are unable to locate a
motorway phone or services station phone, please
contact the RAC Control Centre for guidance.
In France the same procedure applies if you break
down on a motorway service area.
You may have to pay labour and towing charges
on the spot and an authorised tariff is normally
applicable. However, this will normally only be to
the recovery company’s own depot in the case of
any tow.
These items are covered by European Breakdown
Cover and you should obtain a receipt to claim a
refund from us on your return home. If you are
towed from a motorway, contact the RAC Control
Centre as soon as you can, from the recovery
company’s depot if possible.
Motorcycles
Motorcycles are covered on the same basis as
other eligible vehicles. However, we regret it is not
possible for us to hire a motorcycle if a replacement
vehicle is required. A hire car or alternative transport
will be arranged, whichever is most suitable. We are
also unable to hire a trailer for you to transport your
eligible motorcycle.
Caravan and trailers
Any supplement paid to include a caravan or trailer
under European Breakdown Cover is to cover our
increased risk and costs. We do our best to find
solutions to motoring problems, but we regret we
cannot arrange a replacement caravan or trailer in
the event of a breakdown which in our opinion we
are unable to repair locally or within a reasonable
time, or because repairs are unwise. Hire vehicles
are unlikely to include tow bars so that it may
become necessary to repatriate a caravan or trailer
together with your eligible vehicle, if your eligible
vehicle cannot be repaired in the European Territory
by the return date.

are unlikely to include tow bars so that it may

together with your eligible vehicle, if your eligible
vehicle cannot be repaired in the European Territory
by the return date.
Service providers
We do not give any warranty or assurance as to
the services provided by garages, breakdown/
recovery companies, repairers, car hire companies
and other third party service providers whose
emergency services we arrange and/or pay for
under European Breakdown Cover. They do not
act as our agents and we do not accept liability for
their acts or omissions. You should check that any
repairs to your eligible vehicle are carried out to your
reasonable satisfaction.
Motor insurance and vehicle warranty
European Breakdown Cover does not replace motor
vehicle insurance. We strongly recommend you
tell your motor insurers before taking your eligible
vehicle abroad. If you do not, your insurance policy
will only cover you for damage you might cause
to other people or their property. This means that
you will not be covered for damage to your vehicle,
fire, theft etc. Your insurers will also need to know
if you are towing a caravan or trailer. If your eligible
vehicle has a manufacturer’s or other mechanical
warranty, we will provide emergency assistance but
you are responsible for ensuring subsequent repairs
are in accordance with the warranty and do not
invalidate it.

Important self-drive car hire information:
We will normally try to arrange a hire car equivalent
to, but not necessarily the same as, your eligible
vehicle, if there is one available. If your eligible
vehicle was an MPV or similar vehicle we may
arrange two hire cars. We will only arrange this
if there are two qualified drivers in your party.
Otherwise we will arrange alternative means of
transport.
Car hire arranged under European Breakdown Cover
will be subject to the normal conditions of the hiring
company. We use reputable car hire companies
with market standard terms and conditions which
the driver must fully comply with. You must also
have held a full UK driving licence or equivalent
for a minimum of one year (two years for France).
You must present your driving licence to the
hire company and present your full UK driving
licence, National Insurance number and any other

Your credit card details will also be required by the
hire company and the card must be presented to
the hire company as security for the hire and to
cover extras such as top up of the fuel tank when
returning the vehicle.
Please note: we cannot guarantee a hire car will be
available. We cannot arrange the hire of motorised
caravans, motorcycles, convertibles or vehicles with
tow bar, roof rack or automatic gearbox and cannot
guarantee the hire of mini buses or vans. European

You must present your driving licence to the
hire company and present your full UK driving
licence, National Insurance number and any other
information requested.
Your credit card details will also be required by the
hire company and the card must be presented to
the hire company as security for the hire and to
cover extras such as top up of the fuel tank when
returning the vehicle.
Collision Damage Waiver (CDW). Please note that
many car hire companies across Europe charge a
damage excess which is not covered by the collision
damage waiver (CDW). This means that if the car is
damaged during the hire period you could be liable
for the first portion of the cost, which is likely to be
over £150, and have your credit card charged. The
amount could be much higher and varies according
to hire company, category of hire car and location.
The CDW covers the amount above the excess.
In some parts of Europe hire cars are not allowed
to cross national borders. In Greece international
drop-offs are not permitted. It may be necessary
therefore to arrange two hires or alternative
transport to complete your journey. A car hired
abroad must not be brought into the United
Kingdom. A second car hire will be arranged for the
United Kingdom part of your journey.
Please note: we cannot guarantee a hire car will be
available. We cannot arrange the hire of motorised
caravans, motorcycles, convertibles or vehicles with

If your eligible vehicle is not able to be
driven due to an accident, fire, break-in or
theft, any damage which you are entitled
to have repaired by your motor insurers
must be reported to them immediately.

to authorise repair in the European Territory
or have the vehicle repatriated. We cannot
repatriate the vehicle unless your motor
insurers first give their permission. We also
reserve the right to negotiate with them to
reclaim any costs we may have incurred in
providing services under this policy.
It is our decision alone whether to
repatriate or repair locally your eligible
vehicle that cannot be driven as a result of
a breakdown, or as a result of a road traffic
accident, fire or theft, for which you do not
have fully comprehensive cover.
7. Non-repatriated vehicles: Repatriation will not

of your eligible vehicle is less than the cost of
repatriation.

supplements for caravans, baggage or boat
trailers and certain motor vehicles are to cover
our increased risk and costs.
9. Repayment of Credit: You must pay back to us
on demand
(a) any costs we have paid at your request for
which you are not covered under European
Breakdown Cover
(b) the cost of any spare parts supplied at your
request.
We reserve the right to charge these costs to your
credit card account if necessary.
10. Car Hire: we will not be responsible for any
delays in obtaining a hired vehicle and cannot
guarantee to provide it in time to connect with
any pre-booked ferry or train etc. It may be
necessary for you to collect a hired vehicle from
the nearest available place of supply.
11. Spares Despatch: After you have asked the
RAC Control Centre to despatch parts you are
responsible for paying for them in full, even if
you later obtain them locally. We will arrange
to despatch parts as quickly as possible
but delays will occur at weekends and bank
holidays or other busy times. We do not accept
responsibility for manufacturers’ or suppliers’
errors, loss or damage of parts in transit or any
delay in delivery.
Please note that spare part(s), especially for
older vehicles, may not be available or may be
difficult to locate. This may impede or prevent us
dispatching spares.
12. Taxi Arrangements: On occasion you may be
asked by the RAC European Control Centre
to make your own taxi arrangements. In this
instance, you should obtain a receipt and
send it to us to claim a refund after you have
returned home.
Making a claim
When providing assistance we make every effort to
meet on your behalf all costs within the claim limit.
However, in some instances you may be asked to
pay locally and reclaim costs on your return to the
Territory. There may also be occasions when you
arrange and pay for assistance direct and wish to
reclaim the cost.
All claims must be made on an RAC claim form and
are subject to the claims procedure and conditions
detailed in this Making a claim section of your
European Breakdown Cover. A RAC claim form can
be obtained from the contact details below.

European Breakdown Cover for Travel Plus Pack
Service Limit for Travel Plus Pack customers:
European Breakdown Cover is only provided
for a maximum period of 90 days for any one
journey. Instead of individual benefit limits
(with certain exceptions), you are covered to
an overall limit of £2,500 per claim. You may
make up to two claims against valid European
Breakdown Cover in a membership year and
each claim must be for a separate journey.
Battery related faults
For battery related faults your cover is as follows:
Our initial attendance for a battery related
fault is included. There is no charge for that
attendance.
The fitting of any parts or batteries purchased by
you prior to our attendance is not covered. This
is to ensure that parts are fitted from reputable
sources in order to avoid secondary callouts.
Our patrol will test your battery on the initial
breakdown attendance. If the battery is no
longer serviceable and so fails the test you will
be advised to replace it.
If you call us out again within 12 months of the
initial attendance for the battery related fault
and we identify the same fault as a problem
caused by the same battery, you will have to pay
an additional charge which will be notified to
you at time of the call-out. That charge will be
no less than £75.
You will be charged separately for any such
additional charges.
Duration of cover
Your RAC Breakdown Cover is only available if you
have the Travel Plus Pack added to your Qualifying
Account. Subject to your right to cancel (see
below), the cover is from month to month. Your RAC
Breakdown Cover will end if your Travel Plus Pack is
closed or your Qualifying Account is closed or it is
switched to a non-qualifying account, you fail to pay
the monthly Travel Plus Pack fee or your residential
address is no longer in the United Kingdom. Your
RAC Breakdown Cover may also be terminated or
the terms may be changed by Barclays giving you
30 days’ notice in writing.
Cancelling your cover
You have a statutory 14 day period in which to
cancel your insurance contract. This period begins
on the date the Travel Plus Pack is added to your
Qualifying Account or the date you receive your
policy document, whichever is the later. As your
insurance contract forms part of your Travel Plus
Pack, cancellation of your insurance contract will
also require your Travel Plus Pack to be closed.
If you cancel within this period and have paid your
first monthly Travel Plus Pack fee, it will be
refunded provided there has been no claim or
incident likely to give rise to a claim.

cooling off period please refer to the ’Changing or

Arranged Overdraft Interest Charges
When you add one or more Packs to your Barclays Bank Account, you’re eligible to
apply for an arranged overdraft, of which the first £100 will be interest free. If you
already have an arranged overdraft, the first £100 will become interest free, although
your overdraft limit won’t change.
An overdraft limit is a borrowing facility which allows you to borrow money through
your current account. Arranged overdrafts, including interest free amounts, are subject
to application, financial circumstances and borrowing history, so the amount offered
may be different to that shown in the examples below. Overdraft facilities are repayable
on demand and you must be 18 or over and a UK resident to apply for one.
How does my overdraft compare?
A good way to compare the cost of our overdraft with other overdrafts or other ways of
borrowing is to look at the APR. The APR shows the cost of borrowing over a year.
Account type Interest charges Representative example
Barclays Bank Account with
Overdraft Tier (where you have
a Pack)
Overdraft interest is calculated
for each day that you are
overdrawn and is charged to
your account monthly.
The maximum arranged
overdraft is £5,000
0% interest (variable) payable
on arranged overdrafts up to
£100.
If you use an arranged
overdraft above this amount
the annual rate of interest is
35.0% (variable) 56.7% APR
Representative (variable),
based on a £1200 overdraft
balance and monthly Travel
Plus pack fees of £18.00.
Premier Current Account,
Student Additions,
Higher Education Account
When you add a pack to one of these accounts, no additional
interest free arranged overdraft amount is available as a result of you
adding a pack. You can find out more by visiting
www.barclays.co.uk/overdrafts

Current Account.

the right to include and withdraw airport
lounges, restaurants, spas and nail bars from
the Scheme entirely at our discretion and
without notice.
We cannot accept any liability in the event that
an airport lounge, restaurant, spa or nail bar is
full or already reserved/allocated and cannot
provide you with access.
1.3 To gain access to participating airport lounges,
restaurants, spas and nail bars and the

full capacity and unable to accept more guests.
Some lounges also reserve and/or pre-allocate
space, this means that you may be refused

Neither we nor DragonPass have any control
over the decision of individual airport lounges
whether to admit any individual.
1.6 If you or any member of your party has any
medical problem or disability which may
affect your access to an airport lounge, we
recommend that you check with the individual
lounge prior to travelling to see whether they
can facilitate any special requirements you may
have. We regret that we cannot accept liability
in the event an airport lounge is unable to
facilitate special requirements.

visits or any of these Conditions of Use in
writing or by email communication at least
30 days before they become effective.
