im often offered free travel insurance by my banks, im sure its not free , but what bank is offering the best deal,,,my travel this year may involve a cruse to say Jamaican Mexico etc so it will be out side Europe,, my reason to ask is i have medication for high blood pressure,,, in the past Ive never thought to mention it,, but when taking some insurance this year i did and the price went mad ,, so when the bank said free insurance it sounded good theres me and the wife so do thay cover a couple?? PS it was a business account but im sure its avalable on all accounts??? any advice or recommendations please

Even if travel insurance is included in packaged bank accounts you still have to declare medical conditions, and it is possible that you will either be declined cover or will have to pay extra. I am not sure any bank offers free Worldwide travel insurance. Alliance and Leicester used to, but now it's Europe only.0

hi carl
i cant be sure but most if not all current accounts that offer benefits such as travel insurance you have to pay a monthly fee also i dont think if you already have a medical condition you are garenteed to get the insurance you would probably have to look it to that0 -
Halifax have free worldwide cover - including skiing - with the URCA account. I've got one and claimed before and it went through absolutely fine. Again though you do have to declare any conditions and pay a yearly suppliment for them.Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....0
