Travel insurance grrr.
Has anyone have any tips? I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer (lung involvement) in 2015. For the first time since original breast cancer diagnosis decided to put self first & tick an item off the bucket list & book an overseas holiday. Found a great agent, booked a great holiday, then went away to book insurance. I have contacted more than 2 dozen insurance companies & none will cover cancellation or anything related to the 'pre-existing medical condition', because it involves a primary organ!! I still work, though the new med (hormone) makes me tired & increases the hot flushes (joy!!), I am asymptomatic. But no one will touch me. Have tried brokers, but haven't bothered to get back to me.
As a side vent, my sister in law & brother are joining me for a portion of the trip, but she has a diagnosed heart condition, on medication, and yet can get cover!!
Sorry, but when are insurance companies going to treat people as individuals & not just a tick box on a computer screen!!!
My holiday is in May. Has anyone got any suggestions?
