I am a 69 years young, now a resident of Australia currently on holiday in the UK and required a single trip insurance from the UK to Australia - flight only.
Travelling home in 2008. I am having great difficulty finding a company who will insure me as I have not resided in the UK for the last 6 months.
I have only been in the country for two months when I had go back home for family reasons, no address in the UK & We are unable to provide comprehensive cover after you have departed from your home in Australia - so no insurance.
I bought a One-Way ticket when leaving Australia as I had no idea how long my dying relie would last, did not think this would so much of a problem as this.
Very limited for choice, only two so far:-  
Worldwide travel - 0870 112 8100
JBI - 0118 970 3781
Even contacting the BIBA was without it drawbacks for they are not allowed by UK law to suggest or recommend a company even if they are a member of BIBA of whom they know can help!!
After 4 days still no Travel Insurance.
