I have had insurance with Holiday Safe for many years but now they wont cover me for Diabetes.
Any suggestions of insurers who will?
Thanks

I’ve never had a problem getting covered for Diabetes, I just go to one of the comparison sites. You can choose the option of 'pre-existing health condition' before you start. I’ve never found they put any extra premium onto my Type 1, with no other health conditions, though someone I know who doesn’t have diabetes but is older than I am and does take medication for blood pressure, cholesterol etc, always has the price doubled. So if you have any other of the metabolic issues that tend to go with Type 2, you may find your premium increases.
 
Thank you very much.I have been hunting. Book marked one. Just awaiting tests for a new condition so will have to await that result now :-(
