'Charity raised our travel insurance premium from £168 to £1,002'

When Geoffrey Pulzer renewed his annual travel insurance he was shocked to find the premium had rocketed by 600pc – and his insurers wanted £1,002.

At 87, Mr Pulzer said he expected to pay more for his travel insurance, but he couldn't understand why the cost of the policy – which he has had for several years, and also covers his wife – had risen so much: "I was able to get reasonably priced insurance when I was 86, and we are both still in good health, so why do they want to charge us so much more?"

Many older holidaymakers struggle to buy affordable insurance – this is one of the issues we receive most complaints about. The older you are, the more expensive travel insurance will be – as you are statistically more likely to make a claim, either for medical treatment abroad or to cancel your holiday due to ill health.
