Travel insurance recommendations

Looking to travel to Spain for 1 week break away. Dad diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer and finished chemotherapy around 6 weeks again we can't however find an insurance less than £1,500. Anyone had similar problems?

  • Hi Dancing,

    There is another post on travel insurance running at the moment. It is entitled ‘Insurance’ and is from [@redfeed]‍

    Dave has given you some sound advice, so follow this whatever you do. It wouldn’t do to be stuck in Spain with no cover.

    The sites that Helen mentioned in Redwood’s post are worth a look, although I couldn’t find anyone to accept me on these sites.

    My husband and I both have a long list of medical problems. We found that Stay Sure was a huge improvement in comparison to other companies, which charged thousands. We had been with them for about 4 years, when they transferred us to All Clear which is still reasonable.

    We take out an annual policy as we go abroad approx. 3 times a year. At present we pay £400 for an annual policy for both of us. This works out at £66.67 each per trip. This is not as cheap as Tosyn’s. £25.00, but we were happy with it. The annual cost is less than other companies were quoting for a single trip (under a third of the price). There was also very little difference between an annual and a single journey quote. The only problem is that this doesn’t cover us for America.

    Please let us know who you eventually find to cover you. I hope that you get away to Spain and that you and your dad enjoy your holiday there.

    Kind regards,
