Liz1 bought her cruise travel insurance as soon as she’d booked her holiday. But before her trip, she was unexpectedly taken into hospital and was diagnosed with a new condition.
Liz contacted us and updated her policy as soon as she could to make sure she was covered for any potential claims relating to her new condition.
Unfortunately, the day before she was due to go, her GP advised her not to travel.
Liz was understandably disappointed and rang us to claim for the cancellation of her holiday.
Having updated her policy with her new medical conditions, Liz was covered to cancel her cruise. After accepting the claim, the money was transferred to her bank account within three working days.
Having the correct policy to cover you for any conditions you have is vital. Like Liz, it puts you at ease that should something happen, you’re covered.
