   For all other claims which do not involve death or personal injury, the maximum amount we will have to pay you if we are found liable to you on any basis is two times the price (excluding insurance premiums and amendment charges) paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total unless a lower limitation applies to your claim. This maximum amount will only be payable where everything has gone wrong and you have not received any benefit at all from your Tourism Product.
