Holiday insurance

Hi every one, just thought I mention my recent encounter when buying holiday insurance.
I've been using the company " holiday extras " for a number of year's mainly they give good cover at a decent price and also my wife uses them for her dedicated cruise cover which she has claimed twice with them and never had a problem.
So each year before I take out the insurance I phone up and double check that they will still cover me travelling by motorcycle ( as in there terms & conditions etc there's no mention of motorcycling, each year I get the came answer which is yes I'm covered as long a I've got a licence & I wear a helmet.
So yesterday I rang them up & ask the same question & immediately I was told they no longer cover motorcycling due to now having a new underwriter.
Strange thing is I read there terms/ conditions a number of times & there's no mention of motorcycling being NOT covered.
So next time your buying holiday insurance best to give the broker a ring just to clarify the policy.
