My husband too reaches 70 in January so we will be looking at insurance options. Luckily our holiday booked to celebrate his birthday covers him even though the birthday falls whilst we are away.
Have checked with age uk and saga and both seemed expensive. a friend told me she and her husband pay nearly £1000 pa which is extortionate in my ever so humble....so look forward to any helpful info.
We have world wide ins free with the bank which seemed a good opportunity but that ends at 70. Previously we paid for annual European which was less than £100 for us both. Would not be so concerned for holidays in the U.K. But have decided we need to see a bit more of the world before it is too late. Anyone with a good deal.??
