Hello, can I ask if anyone has managed to get insurance when you are terminal. My husband was given 6-12 months in July 24. He has prostrate cancer which has gone to his spine. When I was looking for a quote 2 insurance’s have said they can’t quote as my husband has passed his sell by date( as we like to call it) and we have to get a new date from the doctor or consultant !!! Which is impossible as no one knows.
That's great news Anns and thank you very much for coming back with your recommendation. I'm sure others in your position in future will appreciate this feedback.
I hope you have a lovely cruise.
Anne
Thanks for letting us know Anns, I hope you have a splendid time.
However, would you be able to just confirm the name of the insurer please? I'm asking because so your post says you received a call from World First Travel insurance and you have quoted a website www.worldwideinsure.com
Which one is it please? I'd like to be able to point others in this direction but need to be sure of the right insurer.
Thank you.

Hi
It's so confusing - all the companies seem to be intertwined. This is the original email that I received from them. I am sure if anyone wants to contact them the best way is to give them a ring on 0345 90 90 121.
Good morning,
Thank you for your email.
I am sorry to hear you are having issues finding a suitable cover. We would be more than happy to assist you in obtaining a quote with us.
You would be required to go through a full quote. This can be done on our website https://secure.travelinsurance4medical.co.uk/
If you would prefer we went through a quote with you over the telephone, we can be contacted on 0345 90 80 121. If you would prefer for someone to call you, this can be done if you provide me with your number and a suitable time to call. Our phonelines are open Monday to Friday 09:00 until 17:00.
If our insurer cannot cover, we can also look at our sister brand called World First travel insurance.
Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance
Best wishes
Beth
A very good tip. It worked for me, with Stage 4 NET, and a factor of 10 times cheaper than the MSE suggestions.

Hi , I used insurewith to get to Albert and Eddie. Very detailed medical questionnaire online, I didn't need to phone, each condition listed and agreed as part of the policy. Basic policy with optional extras for cruises and sports.
Thank you very much Dabsinthewoods , I hope you enjoy your trip(s).
Derek.
