in Insurance & life assurance
Hi I have a family member who is trying to get holiday insurance but is struggling to be offered a policy. She has an undiagnosed condition one letter said she had suffered a heart attack and another stated blood clots.

The incident happened in 2007, anyone know of a company that will insure her or specialise for people like her

Thanks for any help

Mike

    Unfortunately, this is way too generic and not many people can advise.

    You mention OAP? How old? Heart attack. Many insurances may say that anything linked to the vascular system and heart will not be covered. So check very very carefully.

    Try ageconcern website and ask for their advice.
