Frequently Asked Questions


Why do I need to declare a pre-existing medical condition to you if it is controlled with medication and I no longer suffer from the symptoms, surely as long as I take my medication I no longer have the condition?


A number of medical conditions are controlled and managed by prescribed medication, where medication is taken as directed by your doctor or consultant symptoms can improve or disappear completely. However this does not mean that you no longer have the underlying problem/medical condition it usually just means that the condition is being managed.


It is important that when you obtain a quotation from Coverwise you answer any questions that we raise honestly and completely to ensure that if we are able to offer you a policy, the selected cover meets your needs.


We are open from 9am until 6pm Monday to Friday and from 9am until 2pm on a Saturday.
