Default Travel insurance for senior citzens. I am just recovering from a heart attack.?

I had a heart attack nearly two months ago. Can anyone provide the name of an insurance company who is prepared to cover me for annual travel insurance.Whilst I have had a 5way by pass the surgeon says i will be betIer than i was before when i am fully recovered in about 3 months time. Does any insurance company believe this and if so who?

My mother-law has pre-existing conditions got travel insurance through Marks and Spencer. They couldn't cover her on their standard policy but passed us on to another department who did cover her!

You have a problem here,I am in the same position. Insurance companies won't insure you for a pre-existing medical condition. they will give you insurance for a holiday with the provision that you aren't covered for illnesses retated to your heart condition. I rang around several companies and was told the same. You may be able to get someone to cover you for this but the premiums will be astronomical. A few months ago a few family members went on holiday. I covered us all on Direct Line, with my condition disclosed, they came in the cheapest

Try SAGA or get in touch with Age Concern. Both deal with insurance for the senior citizens and those with various illnesses. Hope all goes well and you make a good recovery...Good Luck.

You can get any travel insurance, tell them your situation and they will give you a number to ring, they are a firm that will give you a ref; number to quote if anything happens while you are away, my husband is the same but it is nearly 10 years since his op, the insurance is still the same for me and for him
