I’ve just gone to the companies you mentioned for online quote - 30 days!!MyRealNameToo said:
Often it will be by phone for those that offer extension, else go with a provider that already offers 60+ days and then the off the shelf product meets your needs.dbrookf said:
How do you extend? Do you have to call them?MyRealNameToo said:
Staysure is 50 days but can be extended to 100 days if you are under 70. AA is 62 days, Cover for you is 62 days, Virgin Money Gold is 94 days, Aviva can be extended to 60 or 90 days, PostOffice can be extended to 60 days, Multitrip is 60 days, Gigasure supreme is 60 days, GreatCover Platinum is 60 daysdbrookf said:
It was an annual policy I got quotes for - no sign of being able to extend!?daveyjp said:Annual policy should do the job. They generally have a 90 or 100 day max trip length.

We are both 70+ with some pre-existing medical conditions. We have Barclays Travel Pack (requires a Barclays Current Account) and it is easy to buy an extension online, relatively cheaply. We take a 54-60 day trip each year.1
