Travel insurance Beware!
Watch this postRang Staysure the other week (wondering if some medical info needed to be added for insurance purposes) where the operator had obviously been trained to deal with anyone over the age of 50 like an idiot - after an initial quote, I was then treated to a "oh look we've got a discount today", then a "I'll have a word with my manager", then a "oh look, we've got a cheaper level to offer you"! - after the call I went onto their website, input the identical information and saved myself over £100!
I can only put this down to the calls being routed through third party companies that are trying to take a large slice of the pie. Just hope this helps someone in future so if they have medical questions, ring the company but stick to doing the quote on line.
