Review of the World First Travel Insurance, Travel insurance:

A very sensitive and thorough assessment of our needs followed by a very reasonable quote

They have a very professional and bespoke approach to providing insurance for those with medical conditions. Having gathered lots of evidence they provided us with an excellent quote. I was impressed that they did not seem to be reading from a prompt sheet but actually listened to me and our actual situation. Reviewed on: 21st September 2016

Although a long phone call to thoroughly clarify the complex health condition of a member of our family, the call was so worth it.

Easy set up and off we went!

Very simple set up procedure even for us with pre-existing medical conditions. Also easy to renew insurance that's coming to an end where renewal notice is given well in advance. Was a bit annoyed the Premium increase was slightly above inflation though! But was just okay for us not to look elsewhere.. . Reviewed on: 6th August 2019
