Hi,my dad is currently having immunotherapy treatment and is responding really well so far.
After speaking with the hospital my parents have decided to book a holiday.The problem they are having is getting insurance.The quotes they have got so far is £2000 and that's just for my dad.
Has anyone having the same treatment ever got travel insurance for less?

Hi Smurf01 and a very warm welcome to the online community which i hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
That's great to read that your dad is responding well to the immunotherapy and a holiday sounds like a lovely idea.
Unfortunately, as your parents have found, it can be more difficult to find travel insurance when you've had a cancer diagnosis so can I recommend that you join us over in the travel insurance group where you'll find recommendations from others who have been successful. Once you've joined look for the thread called 'recommended travel insurance' as this is where the majority of recommendations are.
It has been recommended in the past 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.

Has your mum tried goodtogoinsurance.com or payingtoomuch.com? I've used both of these and found them to be reasonably priced. However, I'd finished my treatment at the time of taking out the insurance.
