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

Affordable

Brilliant company for travel insurance

5
Going back to the first time I used worldwide travel for my insurance - I had had breast cancer the year before, the insurance quotes I was getting from other companies were horrendous. I thought I was going to have to cancel my trip to New York because I wouldn't be able to justify the cost of the insurance. Luckily I discovered Worldwide Travel Insurance and after completing the medical history I was so relieved and pleased to see that the quote was a reasonable and fair one. I have since recommended this company to breast cancer groups, friends and colleagues. I continue to use them for all my trips. Reviewed on: 27th August 2018

Great price with Low Excess

5
Gave the best online quote when looking for the type of policy we wanted, but the clincher was the low excess on the policy, which is worth considering if you require minor medical treatment abroad, as often you have to pay upfront and claim back through your travel insurance, but if the policy has a high excess you may get nothing back. Buying was quick and easy, but the proof of how good they are will come if we need to claim, but hopefully that won't happen. Reviewed on: 27th August 2018

The best if you have medical history

5
I have some medical issues and World First Travel made it easy to get travel insurance and it wasn’t expensive neither. I will use them again. Reviewed on: 27th August 2018
