Good morning Redwing30. I think you will find on going online for Quotes we had this problem last year. 1 of the 1st questions was are undergoing or Awaiting results from investigations And as soon as you answer yes to that. A message comes up to say the cant quote you. And obviously if you tell a lie then need to claim They will use that as a get out of paying You can ring a company or try online Good luck Brian
Good morning
I would recommend insure and escape, they covered me when others wouldn’t
Yes this is a problem. My husband was awaiting a not urgent minor op on his hand but so many insurers were suspicious because ha was past 80 but health ok. However since my bypass I have noticed the cost of insurance has rocketed if you ,want to go to long haul like the Caribean
Thanks for replying
If you manage to find an insurance company that offer cover could the information be shared as I’m having the same problem which has been ongoing for 3 years.
Will do
Hi just updating re insurance.I am being referred to congenital heart clinic in Glasgow. I am going to hold off trying to get insurance for a month or so.My Cardiologist said he would write me a letter for insurance if I needed it.Did phone one company and will insure for pre existing conditions but not cover for anything related to this problem. My holidays aren't till October and January so have a bit of time.Will update if I manage to get insurance in future though fear is unlikely and will have to decide myself whether to go or not.My consultant has said there is a low risk of a problem in the next 10 to 15 years.
