Affordable cover.
I have had bowel and liver cancer in the last 4 years and most companies wanted to charge me a fortune for cover. I came across HolidaySafe on the MacMillan site and it was so much cheaper. I have used them many times and on my 2nd occasion I had to make a claim which, after emailing the relevant paperwork and a short phone call from a lovely lady, was paid out in a few days. Last year I was going to visit my daughter in Australia but I was getting ridiculous insurance quotes up to £12,000 and as my visit was under 45 days HolidaySafe gave me a quote of £278. I’m 67 and do not take any medication, so I was shocked at some of the ridiculous quotes. I would never use any other company for my travel insurance.

Policy not required
Fortunately I did not have to use the policy. I would only comment if I had to use the policy. However it was good to have insurance if required.

Very good value.
Very good value and you get a good price for renewing annual insurance each year.
Very helpful staff if you ring with a query.

Competitive rates, medical screening using medication a good idea
Process seemed thorough and more usher friendly without speaking to a human, asking about medication then questions targeted to condition, competitive rates and would consider for annual policy

The whole process was easy
The whole process was easy, completely on-line, and I got the insurance I needed for much less than I feared might be the case.
