Womb cancer travel insurance

Hi Tess

I have used Insurancewith and Saga for my travel insurance. I have a few other medical problems and have had good premiums and cover from both of them. I hope this helps.

Hi, im with Insurancewith, which was set up by a lady who had gone through cancer herself. Mine was stage 3 and I had radiotherapy and chemo, and their pricing took into account how long it had been since completing treatment. So you might might better rate if you completed treatment over 12 weeks ago compared to 11 weeks ago, you get my drift.

Hi mine was grade 3 1b and had radiotherapy - finished 2 years ago. I got insurance as soon as I finished treatment as had a trip booked. Used Avanti - had been with them before treatment ( they also paid out for very expensive trip I had to cancel). It did go up but not as much as I expected. I still can’t get insurance for standard companies for annual policies but fine with specialist ones. Good luck! 

Thanks for the Avanti recommendation it’s been my best quote by far. Hope you’re doing well. xx

Like you I was also stage 3 and found Insurancewith by far the best company to deal with. They asked sensible, more detailed questions. With the other standard companies, as soon as I said it had spread to a few local lymph glands they assumed it was widespread and metastatic, which it wasn’t, and consequently the quote were ridiculous. 

Yep, I had a call with a lady in customer service team that had been a nurse, she understood what was what!

I’m really well thanks! Glad Avanti worked for you.

I was recommended to try Albert and Eddie by Macmillan.  I took mine out 8 weeks after surgery and thought it was very reasonable for my husband and me with other medical issues for multi-trip insurance so I am expecting even better rates next year.

• Hi Tess , i had to get insurance this march for a holiday in Mexico, . We got a few quotes which were high and a lot wouldnt insure me cos of low grade cancer after getting the all clear last October. We paid about £180 for us both with Aviva for 2wks holiday. They wouldnt give me a yearly policy tho. Go on compare the market .com its quicker as my next holiday was £50 with the post office for Egypt.  I have hip replacements too but 18yrs ago , no medications tho.

I Got a 12month travel policy with the bank and my debit card for aboy £600 less than quoted by the insurance companies that macmillan suggested. They were my last resort as the card had a travel insurance with it so I explained what had happened and they said yes fine. Very surprised...
