Holiday insurance

[ceris]

Hi all, can anyone who has copd let me know where they get holiday insurance, having a problem, as I have had 4 chest infections in the last year they don’t want to know, thank you.

Hi Ceris, I used No Limits they were very good, I think a lot depends on whether you have been hospitalised recently.

Thank you for that, we always use saga, am having to wait for the underwriters, I’ve never been hospitalised only had chest infections, I told them that , it seems that they will accept 2 chest infections but not 4, will try that one and see.

Try m&s insurance ,if youve never been hospitalised you should get a much cheaper quote

World wide insurance is one I have tried that is reasonable. However if you have had any infections or other illness in the past six month the premiums shoot up. Also if you are refused by one insurer doesn't mean you can't get insurance shop around . Good luck with it.

Thank you, having to wait for the underwriter from saga, but they wanted £450 for my husband and I, to go to Cyprus, last year we paid £175 for a years insurance, will shop around.

All Clear Insurance ? Chest Heart and Stroke used to have a list on their website .

Hi ceris, I have just renewed my annual insurance with All Clear. I was with them last year but wanted to try and get a lower quote. I tried 7 insurance companies recommended by others on this site but because I have 7 med problems and my husband has 3 only Staysure and All Clear would cover us. Staysure wanted £650 and All Clear wanted £550 for gold cover which I wanted in case I should ever take ill whilst abroad, these quotes were for annual cover as we travel as much as we can. Hope this helps save you time and that you get the insurance you need. Take care Maximonkey

Try money supermarket. Just found 8 days in Turkey for £228 with travel insurance saver. Haven't been abroad for over 2 years because of cost of insurance. Now packing my case and ready to go.
