The hunt for Virgin Travel Insurance's press office
August 17, 2007
I have just spent 30 minutes trying to get a number for the Virgin Travel Insurance press office.
I was trying to find out more about a survey that apperared in the Guardian today and so far have had no joy.
I have been passed around various press offices representing different parts of the Virgin brand and finally got a number from Virgin Media (although I am still awaiting a call back).
The survey featured most disappointing attractions in the UK and beyond - with Stonehenge taking first place. Maybe it is time to start a list of the most disappointing (or hard to find) press offices for travel insurance brands?

Hi Martin,
Sorry you had problems tracking us down. Virgin Travel Insurance is just one of the products offered by Virgin Money so in this instance it wasn't obvious from the Guardian article that you needed to contact the Virgin Money Press Office if you needed more info.
However, if you type 'Virgin Travel Insurance Press Office' into Google our contact details including a phone number will pop up as the 3rd search result (possibly 4th now). The first two results being your blog entry and Nick's reply to it. If you'd 'googled' us before doing your blog about how difficult it was to track us down you'd have found us at the very top. If you haven't tried it before, Google's great for finding out stuff like that. ;-)
