| Assist Abroad Lauches New Service | |
| 10 March 2008 Assist Abroad is a new and exciting service that’s there to help you plan your trip and to help you resolve any problems you might encounter while you are away. The Basic Service is FREE. You get FREE access to digital maps of Europe showing details of two million service providers in more than 30 different categories (dentists, hospitals, hotels and lot’s more.) Not only that, you have the chance to help others as well by giving us details of any service providers who have given you a good service so we can add them to the database. The Maps are fully interactive and the coverage is being extended to other continents as well so it won’t be long before the whole world is covered. Another freeservice which is included is the secure digital storage service, where you can store copy passports, health card, passcodes, people to contact in case of emergency etc. ALL OF THIS IS FREE – UPON REGISTRATION! The "Enhanced" service includes everything in the basic service but for an annual subscription of £18 you get three important additional services. The 24/7 Information Helpline. Your membership Card will have this number (an ordinary call charge NOT premium rate) which is available round the clock. Friendly and efficient staff are trained to make calls on your behalf and help you sort out any problem which might arise during your trip. Assist abroad also give you special luggage tags to help you track down lost luggage. They have a standby live interpreter service to come to your aid by explaining what you want to people who don’t speak your language. Finally, if you have the right kind of phone (and if you don’t they supply a widget that works with your existing phone) when you call the helpline, if you wish, your exact location will show up on our digital map, along with your membership file.
