Partner has no life cover or income protection. HIndsight would be a good thing...

He is self emloyed but has devloped headaches and dizziness. He has had CT that didn't show anything but is going to have MRI.

Is it too late to get any kind of cover now?

Thanks

    Because he is aware of the potential problem, yes is too late.

    It wouldnt be covered if you mentioned it on an application.

    If you didnt mention it, it would be fraud.

    If you didnt mention it, and made a claim, it woud not only be fraud, they always get medical records and you would be found out.
    No payout then and a possible fraud conviction and no one would ever insure you again.
    Sorry. Hope your OH will be okay.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    As McKneff says you could get cov er but it wouldnt cover what he is already suffering from - and they wouldnt offer any cover until the reusults from all tests come back
