SAGA don't bother about cholesterol levels; maybe companies think you might keel over with a stroke or heart attack.
My worry is that you do not appear to be covered for the journey to the holiday, eg airport or wherever, as cover does not begin until the holiday starts. Flight too I wonder?
Geraldine Taylor, Sherborne, United Kingdom
My sister had a heart attack in October 2007, her husband had a severe stroke 6 weeks ago. She mentioned concerns to the nurse (as and when her husband is well again?) as to how much her travel insurance would increase. Nurse replied "you don't need alot of expensive insurance so long as you have the E111, you're covered." Is this correct?
Katherine Morgan, Bicester, Oxfordshire
hi just received paperwork to update boots travel insurance, yearly cover world wide for a couple, phoned up to renerw, my husband who has recently been started on simvastatin will not be covered unber boots, as he is also on medication for his b.p. just to make people aware that if you are on a statin you may not get travel insurance, he answered no to all appropriate questions, such as he has not been in hospital, he is not waiting to see a consultant and he is not awaiting any results, he works full time as a paramedic and as result of a blood test and started on a statin by a specialist nurse cannot get cover from boots, we have been with them 10 years
