Review of the World First Travel Insurance, Travel insurance:

Friendly and well informed staff

Medical screening made easy, lots of questions but sensible ones. Premiums reflect the screening they are very competitive and much better than some of the companies that I tried. Staff seemed well trained and helpful Reviewed on: 1st August 2019

Fair prices for medical insurance

5
Used World First for a few years now. Every year they offer a fair price for my wife's medical condition. Without this insurance we would be stuck to holidays in the UK. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

Excellent Travel Insurance for people with Health Issues

5
Travel insurance is difficult to obtain when someone has health issues, especially cancer. World first Travel is excellent and do easy to get a quote online. Not expensive compared to other travel insurance providers . In fact this was the cheapest quote I could get on line. Love the different options available. Covers you for skiing for an added cost. Each year I get a reminder and cost has decreased as my husband has not needed further treatment. When I have phoned the customer service advisors have been very helpful. Luckily have not had to make a claim so cannot comment on the claiming process. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

Helpful and fast

Really easy to book online with them, and when I needed to have my documents resent, it took no time at all! Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

Best insurers ever!

I have been using World First Travel Insurance for many years now. I have looked but never found another one that could offer me the same cover or great customer experience for my medical needs at such an amazing price. Needless to say I would and have recommended them to anyone I've had conversations with. I have found them straightforward and fabulous to deal with, they really are amazing and great value for all with or without complex needs. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

Best for health cover

5
Best price, a years cover is cheaper means good value, piece of mind and choice to travel as much as you want in the whole year. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019

Great cover at a reasonable price

5
Having a few health issues I have found some insurance companies that have quoted what I consider to be extortionate prices. The same cannot be said of World First. Always reasonable and competitive, I've used them for quite a few years now. I would happily recommend them to anybody. Reviewed on: 6th August 2019
