Hello everyone. Would anyone have experience of obtaining travel insurance after cancer diagnosis that doesn’t cost more than the holiday itself. I would really appreciate any help/advice that could be given.
thankyou x

I am writing this on holiday in Turkey - our quote was from Insurancewith and to get the best deal and make sure we told them everything we did it by telephone.
Best wishes - Brian.

Definitely shop around, I found some wouldn’t insure me at all, others (as you mentioned) quoted more than the holiday itself. I found there to be considerable differences in the price I was quoted between companies, so suggest trying 2 or 3.
I found a company called ‘insurance with’ gave me the most reasonable quote. I’ve used them a few times now, prices have varied depending on whether I was waiting for results, and what stage I was at in my treatment.
Hope you have wonderful holiday.
Thankyou so much I appreciate your help.
