Review of the World First Travel Insurance, Travel insurance:

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

5
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

Great Service

They have a really user friendly, clear website. Buying my travel insurance from them has always been simple. They accommodate pre existing conditions at a reasonable price which is why I went with them in the first place. When I had to make changes or ask questions, I found their on the phone customer service to be top notch, I was really happy with the service I received when I phoned up so I do recommend them to friends and family. Especially those who travel with pre existing conditions. Reviewed on: 20th September 2018

I have a medical condition that means I can't get travel insurance from most companies, and World First provide the best price by a mile. Their service is great as well and I've never had any trouble, even when I've needed to make a claim. Reviewed on: 19th September 2018

I have terrible times being a cancer patient and everyone charging a mountain for my insurance, i was really impressed with all the questions i was asked about my health and my cancer, even questions i didn't think they would ask and thought the cost would be the same as any other provider...but no, i was very surprised at the cost so i insured myself with World First, this now is the only insurance provider i will use. Thankyou for being so reasonable. Reviewed on: 18th September 2018
