We are going to New Zealand again in January, stopping over in Kuala Lumpur and Penang, total trip 62 days and need health Insurance.
I have quotes from at least 4 companies and have quotes from £440 to £900 these include existing conditions.
They are from Age concern, Saga, Coverall, Nationwide plus some others who are not in the running.
Anyone have any other suggestion.
Cheers Sid

Hi SidT

We have ours through insure and go, have found their rates to be very competetive. As with all insurance companies the premium seems to double once you are over 65 years of age.

Thanks Guys. I see on the "moneysupermarket" one they are all sponsored links which means they are not the cheapest, I rang Allclear from the list and was quoted £3000. I don't think I will be using them. I will give insureandgo a try.

Hi Sid

I wasn't aware of that myself, looks like we will have to start searching ourselves if ever we get to go on an extended trip.

Good hunting, please keep us informed of your findings

Brian

Hi Brian. As Nationwide was the cheapest at £434 I rang them this morning. They had our ages wrong, the dates wrong so the number of days wrong even though I gave the girl the correct info. So it has jumped from £434 to £577 which with "Age Concern" is still the cheapest.
So, since we went 2 years ago the cost of the flights and stopovers has doubled and travel insurance has more than doubled.
We will have to think about going in our summer which is their winter in NZ as the flights are a lot cheaper, but I hate the thought of having 2 winters in one year.
Cheers Sid
