Travel Insurance

I rang World First for a travel insurance for my husband and myself both have medical conditions, they covered all our conditions and were very professional and helpful. If anyone ask about travel insurance with medical conditions I would definitely recommend World First Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

World first ; first class !!

Having Pancreatic cancer, which also caused Type 1 diabetes following surgery, the quotes I received from others were ridiculously eye watering. I came across this company by way of being mentioned on the “money saving expert” page. The telephone service that I have received has been very conscientious, friendly and reassuring. The actual premium paid for like for like (or better) was incredibly good value and the couple of modifications that I have reported have been quickly resolved. Will definitely be using them again in the future when looking to renew my annual worldwide cover ; and recommending to friends and family. Thank you. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

When we needed them they were 100% for us

The last four holidays we have had insurance with World First as when we needed them last year when we had to cancel a holiday they were brilliant and we got our money back with the exception of the excess. You don’t know how good insurance is until you need it and they were superb. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019
