Cheapest possible Eurotunnel booking?

Fair enough. Very surprised that they dont have a caveat that you actually have to turn up and use them.0

Does eurotunnel insurance not require medical disclosure then? Do you need to have a booking before taking out the insurance?
As a family with various medical conditions that need to be declared, i have always found the travel insurance with my packaged nationwide bank account best, as they havent charged me additional premiums, even when i keep adding to the list of ailments. Stand alone policies work out way more expensive than the £13/m a pay to nationwide (plus i also get breakdown and phone cover included)0 -
Myself also. I couldn't find any caveat, so asked them quite explicitly what would happen if that booking had to later be cancelled - they said annual insurance would be unaffected.bradders1983 wrote: »Fair enough.

Correct, you don't have to discuss the actual detail of any medical issues. You just have to be able to honestly make some statements about the status of those conditions, which logically does seem to be all that should really matter to an insurance company. They may not apply to everyone with medical conditions, but they work well for us. If they weren't true, we wouldn't want to be travelling in the first place. It comes to £95 for annual family cover. Nationwide was my other consideration, but didn't need the other bits - may reconsider in future.
The statements to make with them: (we checked our specialist agreed, as they would have to say it was true in the event of a claim).
-Fit to travel
-Conditions stable with no sign they would get worse
-Not diagnosed with a terminal illness
-Did not know you would need medical treatment or consultation during the journey0
