    Perhaps you may find it helpful if you take the forms (or get some online assistance) from your GP?  If this isn't forthcoming, or possible/practical, getting a medical history from your GP printed out could be a start.

    Good luck.

    The online companies are great for general quotes for house and car insurance but talking to a company direct is the best way. Try ringing them direct then you can explain your health issues ect the same with travel insurance. Better to get the right cover than find your not covered when you need it.

    I did talk to a broker and was upfront about my mental health.
    Tried for the last 3 years and always a no.
    Im not even going to try again as it has an adverse impact on my mental health  :'(

    @Victoriad,
    Thinking back the man said either pre paid funeral or wait and get an over 50’s plan!!!

    @Victoriad, just got back from walking Maggie,don't live on line like a lot of people fatigue sets in ect. Any way I can't recommend any insurance companies for either Life or Travel insurance. As for the prepaid funeral  plans on day time TV there is no end of adds.

    There are some who advertise on TV who claim you don't need a medical. Don't ask me the names though. Or are they all over 50s?

    Silly question alert.
    What's it for? I have no dependants. So who gets the money?
