Extortionate Premiums
OK, I have medical conditions and would expect to pay over the odds for travel insurance. However, the premiums being quoted are, at best, immoral. I diligently answer all the questions as I am aware that even the slightest error could invalidate a policy. However, it seems that there is no credit given for the fact that…
