“Watch out for the Medical Screening costs”

★☆☆☆☆

written by jilpil on 24/09/2017

I have used Flexicover for Travel Insurance for many years and have even recommended to my family - Never Again!

When taking out the policy, I declared, as always, High Blood Pressure, RSI and a Slipped disc (from years ago). I was charged a Medical Screening premium of £14.40 on top of the cost of the policy which wasn't too bad.

After 5 years of High Blood Pressure, my Doctor has recently prescribed an additional tablet to use in conjunction with my normal tablet. I called Flexicover to advise this and fully expected to pay an addition premium. I did not expect to be charged an extra £79.94!!!

I argued this for quite a while but got nowhere so had to pay as I have a holiday already booked to travel in 8 weeks. How can Flexicover justify this mark up?
