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

Good value insrurance for seniors

We are a couple in our late 70's with a few 'old age related' medical problems. World First were able to insure us for a 4 week holiday in Spain at a reasonable price. The medical check was very comprehensive and when we had finished we were sure we had covered everything. Very happy with the quotation Reviewed on: 14th September 2018

Great value travel insurance

4
World First have consistently provided the most competitive travel insurance for us. We both have medical conditions that other companies either refuse to quote for or quote ridiculous prices. The one time we had to make a claim it was dealt with efficiently. Reviewed on: 14th September 2018

Easy quick and great cover

5
Such a great offer, insurance is boring but this is very straightforward, provides great cover and no nonsense Reviewed on: 14th September 2018

Great cover at a good price

5
As I have medical issues, I cannot just take the standard Travel Insurance Cover offered as a part of many packages. I need specialist cover from a company that understands what my issues are (and what they are NOT). World First offers cover for my issues at a very competitive price. I believe this is due to the detailed medical screening, that is more indepth than many of their competitors. Reviewed on: 14th September 2018

Sensible insurance for seniors

5
Searching for travel insurance but when age questions came up the price went up,recommend to friends traveling to Canada they saved half the cost Reviewed on: 14th September 2018

Very customer focussed

5
Having had a serious illness and been unable to get cover elsewhere, World First asked more questions, went into more detail and agreed to provide cover. Great not to have a 'computer says no' approach. Reviewed on: 14th September 2018

5
A great company to deal with. Well priced, efficient and helpful. The cover meets all my needs for world wide travel. Reviewed on: 14th September 2018
