I need to get more life cover which expires in less than a month. So far I have been declined - does anybody know of a specialist company that will cover me?

Let me know how you get on as I can't get quotes even though my current life insurance company knows everything about me

Hi Paul,
I was told you won't be able to get any until five years after diagnoses and being free of cancer. Have never tried to get it yet.
Hope you find someone.
Hi Space_1999
I have not been told that and am only 7 months out of treatment, so is most probably why
Oh I am more and "UFO", Commander Straker man myself

Soo sorry to hear u have the same problem but if I hear of a company I will put it on the forum
I do hope something comes up more quickly than that but it "Finger Crossed" until I hear something else

Hi Paul
Have you tried the Association of British Insurers web site www.abi.org.uk they may be able to provide you with a list of insurers.
Hi Vatch,
Yes I think I am 5 months out, but I will try and get some insurance as soon as I can.
I quite like UFO as well:)
It was my consultant who told me insurance and banks won't touch me for the next five years. But I have managed to get a credit card, I think its for bigger things like buying a house etc when they will say no.
Hello Paul,
Your question is an important one and I am sure many others on the forum will be following your thread for life insurance tips.
I thought I'd also let you know that we have some information on our site about life insurance. You can read it all here.
I hope it is useful to you and that you will also get some useful advice from others on our forum.
Best wishes,
