Fortis Insurance
- recommended by Graham Marsh
NOT ANY MORE. I WAS REFUSED COVER (FEB '07)
I was asked to go through their screening process and ultimately failed.
They asked me if I had had bypass surgery (which I had pre-transplant).
This is the same as asking a man with no legs if he has a problem with his
toes.
