Hi,

I am looking for travel insurance for someone with oesophageal cancer. Has anyone got any experience with this?

Thanks

  • Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    Unfortunately it can be more difficult to find reasonably priced travel insurance when you've had a cancer diagnosis.

    Have you had chance to look through the 'recommended travel insurance' thread yet as it's where the majority of recommendations from other forum members are? If not, clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there. You might also want to look at this thread as it includes a link to a Travel Insurance Directory. 

    Most people recommend that it's best to phone the insurance companies rather than try and do online quotes as often at the end of the online quote it will tell you to phone the company and you'll then have to go through all the information again. Also sometimes the broker can refer to the underwriters to see if they would provide cover when an online quote might just give you a straight refusal. 

    Do come back and let us know how you get on

  • Hi , I just wanted to let you and others looking for insurance know that I had an excellent experience with Insurancewith.com

    They were helpful, polite, thorough, punctual and able to offer flexibility for cover of the cancer diagnosis. The quote was also about a 3rd of other insurance providers that I spoke to. They didn't ask the question about whether the diagnosis was terminal. I would highly recommend people looking for insurance cover try this company. It did take a few days to get to a medical underwriter, but if anything that gave me more confidence in the company.

    Thanks

  • That's great news !

    Thanks very much for taking the time to pop back to make your recommendation and tell us how smoothly it went with insurancewith.com.

    I hope you have a lovely holiday
