Hi. I am finding it difficult to obtain travel insurance at a reasonable price for my partner. Quotes are between £375-£1300. He is currently having treatment for bowel cancer and is responding well to treatment. Any ideas on companies to use would be appreciated
Hi and welcome to the online community
Unfortunately, as you have found, it can be more difficult to find reasonably priced travel insurance when you have had a cancer diagnosis.
Could I suggest that you join the travel insurance group where you'll find recommendations from other forum members who have successfully obtained travel insurance.
To join just click on the link I've created and then choose 'join this group' on the page that opens. Once you've joined look for the thread called 'Recommended Travel Insurance' as it's where we try to keep recommendations from other forum members who have obtained travel insurance. Hopefully you'll find some companies listed there that you haven't tried yet.
Most people recommend that you phone the travel companies rather than try and do online quotes as it's easier to explain to someone than try to do it online.
I do hope that you can get some reasonably priced travel insurance for your partner.

Many thanks and I will join the travel insurance group
