What travel insurance company have people used for travelling with Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia ('CLL')
Hi @Buckeye
I have a different diagnosis and I know that insurance is something that comes up a lot.
There seems to be a few companies that appear to cover blood cancers and other pre-existing medical conditions.
Insurewith seems to get good reviews.
Staysure is another I have heard mentioned by others on the forum.
I believe Saga also covers preexisting medical conditions for over 50s
I’m sure others will offer suggestions
Hello @Buckeye
Welcome to the forum
Thank you for taking time to send in your post
I am also a Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia ('CLL') patient (on active monitoring) and i will need to arrange travel insurance before i go away in early 2027.
I haven’t had much joy to date, but i have also heard the name stay sure mentioned.
I intend to use a travel insurance comparison search engine that looks at numerous companies, perhaps ‘travel supermarket’ for example.
My understanding is that the condition will (as with other blood cancers / cancers / underlying medical conditions) have an impact on the cost of the policy but i guess that’s the way of things.
My intention is - should i find a policy that is reasonably priced with good cover - i will share my experience on here.
Take good care
Kind regards
Mike.

I have Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia ('CLL') and a blood clotting issue. I am having treatment for the Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia ('CLL'). Staysure won’t insure me (aged 66, Female). I was insured with them when I was on Active Monitoring but they cancelled the annual policy that I had once I let them know that I was recommended for treatment.
The website ‘paying too much .com’ is where I managed to actually get a quote for a week in Europe this year - about £300 for a week in Spain. It requires dedication and atm I can only get trip-specific quotes.

Hello there @Feetup, welcome to the forum and thank you for that great insurance tip. Hadn’t heard of PayingTooMuch, such an apt name and looks really flexible.
Sorry to read of your Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia ('CLL') diagnosis and blood clotting issue, I hope you’re getting on okay with those. Perhaps you’ve already read it but here’s the great Blood Cancer UK information about Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia ('CLL') should you fancy a read: Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) | Blood Cancer UK
Do please let us know how you get on @Feetup.
