Hi, I’ve recently been diagnosed with womb cancer and had a total hysterectomy and on Monday went back to hospital and luckily I don’t need further treatment but I have other medical conditions but I’m finding it hard to get travel insurance can anyone give me any insurance companies names and contact details please!
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community
I'm sorry to hear that you have recently been diagnosed with womb cancer but that's great that you don't need any further treatment.
Unfortunately, as you have found, it can be more difficult to find travel insurance when you have a cancer diagnosis. I don't know whether you've had a chance to look through the Member's Stories thread yet as it's where the majority of recommendations from other forum members are. Clicking on the link I've created will take you directly to it if you haven't seen it.
Most people recommend that you phone the travel companies rather than try and do online quotes as sometimes they can refer to the underwriters to see if they would cover you when an online quote might just give you a straight refusal.
Make sure you have all the information to hand about your diagnosis and treatment before contacting the insurers. This is a list of common questions that insurers might ask when you're applying for insurance. Some insurers might ask for a letter from your doctor to prove that they have given you permission to travel.
I do hope that you can get insurance and do come back and let us know how you get on.
