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

Excellent, competitive and comprehensive

World first insurance are a great company I have used them on many occasions. They ask all the right questions regarding your given medical condition(s), which sound arduous but this gives you a more accurate cist effective quote. The customer service is second to none and resolve issues quickly. Reviewed on: 9th October 2024

The only company willing to provide cover

5
World First was the only company that could provide cover for the condition I needed to declare on my travel policy. All of the other travel insurance companies I contacted (approximately 30) said they would have to treat it as an undiagnosed condition. The vast majority stated they would not provide cover in this situation, a few said they would provide cover but at I cost which was uneconomic for me (around ten times the cost of the World First premium). Reviewed on: 9th October 2024

Great hassle free company to deal with. The operator spoke with put me as ease from the very beginning of the enquiry & explained every step of the process, ensuring that all details were clear & understood. Peace of mind guaranteed and a great overall experience from start to finish. Would definitely recommend World First to family & friends and will have no hesitation in calling them again for future holiday cover. Reviewed on: 9th October 2024
