World First Travel Insurance Travel insurance reviews (2518)

No problem travel insurance.

As both my wife and I are over 80, finding travel insurance has been a hassle for more than ten years. Many companies will not even quote for elderly passengers. I have used World First for financial transfers for some years and when I learned that they offer travel insurance as well I rang them immediately, the response was totally professional, they understood our requirements and gave a very reasonably priced quote. No hesitation in using them the next time we need travel cover. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2017

Friendly, helpful, professional and comprehensive insurance

I took out World First Travel Insurance to cover my travels worldwide. The online application was easy and very competitive rate. However, the test of a good insurance company is when you need to make a claim. I dropped my camera in the sea on holiday in Ecuador and it was ruined. I phoned WF and they were both helpful and friendly, dealing with it very quickly. Within a very short time I had been paid and was able to get a replacement camera. Their Social Media presence is really good and they share interesting travel stories as well as marketing their wide range of insurance services. Highly recommend them. Reviewed on: 21st July 2017

I always shop around for an annual travel policy for myself and my partner. He has a medical condition which we have to declare and rates vary considerably because of this. I was very impressed with the rates quoted which were much better value than any others out of approx. ten companies. I also had a query a little later about something which was sorted out very quickly and efficiently. I hope that I don't have to claim; if the service is as good then as it has been so far then I would be very pleased. Definitely recommended. Reviewed on: 20th July 2017

We have been traveller's for many years to various countries, and always found our medical insurance extremely pricey! Then I found World First - WOW - what a difference. More than helpful when speaking to an agent over the phone no pressure sales and nothing I asked was a problem! Their prices are excellent, especially when you have ongoing health problems which may I add does not affect our travels. Would highly recommend them. Thank you so much! Reviewed on: 19th July 2017
