Travel Insurance
« on: April 11, 2015, 01:24:53 pm »
Hi.... When I was at NAC in February this year I saw a post on the notice board about travel insurance with a telephone number, but forgot to write it down. Can anybody help with this please? Or can anyone tell me of Insurance companies that will cover Amyloidosis for travel insurance? Many Thanks Sandra

Hi Sandra Jane
I have had a couple of holidays abroad over the last six months and on both occasions I have found insurance via the comparison sites on the Internet. All the companies seem to recognise Amyloidosis and ask the same standard questions in preparing the quotes. I didn't think the quotes were too excessive.

I use First World Travel.  They were recommended to me by someone with multiple serious health issues.  Although I have never had to make a claim, I am very satisfied at their very reasonable prices.  My friend has had to make claims several times and had no hassle from this Insurance Company.

Best wishes

Hi, I have used fish disability insurance several times. I have never fortunately never had to make a claim but quotes have been very reasonable.
