Recommended.

I found the company online& went for the travel insurance as the price was reasonable& the papers arrived quickly. I didn't have to claim, fortunately. I would use World First again as my travel insurer. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Fast,efficient,way above expectation...

Needed short-term insurance for my 16 year-old daughter to visit me in France...Her mother (who works for a MAJOR insurer 'thought' it not possible on her own policy as our daughter would be travelling alone... An extremely helpful advisor understood my situation immediately and gave me a 'ball-park' figure as I requested,then said he'd call back within 24 hours to confirm a small detail re: a prescription medication...bearing in mind am in France I expected to have to call back myself and 'chase' in a couple of days...but no,the advisor was back as promised within his self-imposed deadline to confirm.Payment over the phone by credit card...simple...cover details by email amlost instantaneous... Only a VERY small policy,but I felt the attention I received was first class...Wouldn't hesitate to use again or recommend wholeheartedly... Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Specialist Travel Insurance

The medical screening questions were more comprehensive than other companies which I am sure helped World First offer travel insurance tailored to my needs at the right price for me and the company. I have experienced some companies asking for higher prices having not screened me as thoroughly as World First or even asked the right type and range of questions. This is an area which is important to an increasing number of people. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Not everyone gives you medical health insurance at a great price

I have a medical condition and was finding that insurance was very high and difficult to get cover until I found World First. They do not discriminate and the prices are very very reasonable. Yes I would recommend them to everyone. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Know their stuff

I chose World First as they are the only travel insurance that ask the right questions and understand the condition I have. I tried others who had no idea and just classed it as generic cancer and didn't ask any questions that related to the type of Leukaemia I have. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Great company

Have used World First twice so far and each time the process has been easy and quick ending with excellent cover at a very good price especially the excess amounts. Will continue to use World First for future insurance cover when going away. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

Easy to use, great service.

Easy online forms to fill out, quick once you get the hang of it. Although I've never claimed I have to confidence that they would be helpful! Competitive pricing also. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017

I was unfortunate enough to have a lost luggage issue on a recent holiday and World First settled the claim fairly in line with the terms of the policy. Reviewed on: 5th July 2017
