Travel insurance premiums

Post by JanA »

hi folks - I've just been trying to get a quote for travel insurance for a week's holiday in France (my husband has been on CAPD for 6 months). Last year we got a good deal with Age Concern who did a medical screen and loaded the excess rather than the premium.
This year, now that he has actually started the dialysis, they refused us insurance and directed us to Free Spirit where the premium has come out at £125. THat seems so high and I wondered if anyone knows where I might get a better quote -or is that what I should expect?!
