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

Satisried Customer

As an elderly and not too fit lady I had no trouble in getting insurance coverage for my holiday. It was quick and easy to do, thankfully. Am using you this year, so must be happy with the service you give. Brenda Boatwright. Reviewed on: 14th August 2018

Very good

This was my first time buying travel insurance. As a 19 year old I thought it was going to be ridiculously expansion but the cover they provided me for the price I paid was reasonable and suited my needs perfectly. Reviewed on: 14th August 2018

Provided very good advice and insurance for medical coverage

5
I needed insurance to cover a trip which I was taking to help recover from a serious medical condition. The insurance advisor I spoke to was very helpful, taking me through a range of questions to make sure I got the correct cover. I was planning on a single trip policy only but the price was so good I got an annual policy, which covered three trips, including two to USA. It was great being able to travel with complete peace of mind knowing I was covered for all eventualities and for a reasonable cost. I have already recommended World First to friends. Reviewed on: 14th August 2018

Great service

5
I've used these guys a few times to cover pre-existing conditions and have found their algorithms to make more sense than a lot of other insurers. They've also worked out cheaper! I've never had to use my insurance while abroad so can't comment on that but I will be using them again Reviewed on: 14th August 2018

Easy and straightforward to deal with.

5
I have recommended World First to friends and family and they, like me, have all found competitive quotes for travel insurance to cover medical conditions that many other insurance companies would not consider or imposed much higher premiums. Reviewed on: 14th August 2018

Most Satisfactory for my visit to Southern Ireland

A very Competitive Price Thank you very much Reviewed on: 14th August 2018
