Thanks Sunday Driver, I will go over to see them I think, I'm just so scared of ending up wasting precious resources by maybe having to double up on insurance payments if I don't get it cancelled in time.

Thanks for the reply sweet 17, useful to hear that you have found them to be OK.  Since my previous posting I have managed to get some more information from their website and I will continue to try and get them on the 'phone.  Just about to cancel my mutuelle to be sure that I've done it within the 20 days from the renewal notice that we've just received, bit worried about changing things but it has to be done.  Good luck to everyone else out there who like us will be having to get things sorted  pdq. Hester.

exclusivehealthcare Could I ask if anyone has had problems getting through to the above company recently?  Their website has "crashed" at the application form stage for top up and I have been put straight onto answerphone when I have telephoned on several occasions over the past few days. I am assuming that they are very busy at the moment, but as I saw their company as maybe being an affordable option for January I'm a bit disconcerted that I can't make contact.  Also for anyone who uses them do you know if they accept credit card payments over the phone as I've been stung in the past on the internet.  Many thanks, Hester. 

Thanks, I have checked it out and hopefully this might suit us.  It's just a case of when to commit isn't it?  I am going to read through the small print that I have downloaded to check what notice we need to give on our Mutuelle.  I keep hanging on just in case.  Many thanks to all of you who are putting in so much hard work on behalf of us all.  Hester.

I am like many others I'm sure needing to get some private health quotes sorted before January.  I keep burying my head in the sand then having a go at dealing with it.  Yesterday after trawling the high street none of the companies I spoke to could offer me full insurance - Groupama, AGF, AXA. GMF and my own current Mutuelle Eovi.  My heart sinks when I see the premiums required from some of the online sites that I have visited and I wondered if anyone has been successful in finding cover under around 3,500 euros for 55-60 age bracket.  I will of course continue to search and let you know if I have any success. Many thanks, Hester.
