Hi, I am currently looking into packaged accounts as the cost for seperate policies is now too high. My main needs are uk breakdown cover and worldwide travel insurance in that order. I have narrowed it down to virgins m account with a £12.50 monthly fee or the co-ops account at £15. I can't seem to make up my mind. Do any of you have experiences with these accounts to share which will help make my decision. Thanks

Don’t be booking any trips that pass through Cuba if deciding on Virgin. Virgin doesn't same to be to concerned about High blood pressure but the Co-op do.
As long as you have not attended you doctor in the last 6 months and not on any waiting list or not on 2 our more prescriptions you should be ok0 -
No pre existing conditions, thanks for letting me know about the three months free with co-op!0
