Hi.
Looking for some advice. I have recently been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and have had the whipple’s procedure in January which was a success and now due to start chemo in the next couple of weeks.
My brother is due to get married in Sicily at the end of August and god willing I would hopefully by able to go (daughter is a bridesmaid). However my annual travel insurance company will not cover me and they have directed me to a website with a list of companies who will provide cover. Does anyone have any recommendations for companies they have used in the past?
TIA
Hi Beppe 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'm not a member of this group, but your subject title caught my eye.
Unfortunately, as you've 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.
Most people say 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.
I hope this helps
