Hi all
I had a lumpectomy at the end of September, I go away end of October and I will get the lumpectomy results when I come back. I'm having difficulty getting insurance for the breast cancer element because I'm pending investigation results. BIBA have quoted but at £350. Does anyone know of any other companies I could try? Thanks
Hello jennale,
You could try Lighthouse Travel Insurance - they have a partnership with Macmillan and I've attached a link below for the website.
Tha are part of a holding company that also owns Albert & Eddie, Insurancewith and Holidaysafe amongst others which are names you might also come across on here.
I hope you can get something useful from them.
If you have any problems or doubts answering their health questions it's often best to 'phone them to discuss.

Hi jennale and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I know how difficult it can be to find reasonably priced travel insurance when you've had a cancer diagnosis and wondered if you've had chance to look through the members recommended travel insurance thread yet? There are lots of recommendations from others there, so your best bet is to make a list and then settle down with a cup of tea and your phone to contact the insurers.
I've personally used payingtoomuch.com and goodtogoinsurance.com in the past.
I hope you're able to find some reasonably priced travel insurance and that you have a lovely holiday.
