Long term travel insurance

Options
Hi everyone,

I need some help!

I am flying to Australia in September for a working holiday, my plan is to complete the 3 month harvest work during the 12 month visa I have got to be eligible for a 2nd year visa. This however creates a problem with travel insurance as 2 year policies are hard to find, 18 month are more common however unsuitable if staying 2 years.

I think my best option would be a 1 year policy which is renewable outside of the UK however the only provider I can find that offers this is 'world nomads' which are more expensive than I would like to pay. I am not looking for the cheapest possible policy I am looking for a good cover for a reasonable price.

I hope someone can help!

Thanks

    Try STA Travel Insurance who can provide up to 2 years. I think they also have offices in Australia.

    Hope you have plenty of money or can earn it. Australia is now really expensive and some of the work does not pay enough to cover essential living costs. I know of people having to return, much earlier than they thought, because they had no money.

If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.
