I found this website extremely informative and helpful during my recent reviews of health insurance specifications for my family's needs. I was contacted by a Usay advisor, Tristan, promptly but due to other commitments I was unable to speak to him until the following week. Tristan was well spoken and answered my questions appropriately and listened to my request to ensure we chose the right health insurance to meet our needs. We lead busy lives, and finding the time to sit down to compare different options can be time consuming...Thank you to Tristan at Usay for making this happen...it was brilliant!!

I got linked to Nicholas Zainal from Globacare through myTribe and I couldn't be more thankful my search for a health insurance advisor brought me to work with Nick. He was knowledgeable, friendly and extremely helpful when advising about my options.

I received a superb from Gareth. I left my details online and within an hour he had called me. His knowledge and help was second to none, I had dealt with AXA directly previously and found their response cumbersome.

Had a telephone appointment with Gareth regarding my health insurance options. Gareth answered all my questions with no hesitation and put me at ease when dealing with any concerns I had. All his advice was easy to understand and not from a script. He found the best policy and price for me and is clearly very knowledgeable in his profession. Thank you.

Importantly, myTribe doesn't provide financial advice.

The information on our website is meant to inform and educate people about insurance in the UK, but it isn’t financial advice. Please don’t base your decisions on information from our website, as it’s general and what is best for you will be different to others. We strongly recommend that you speak to an independent financial adviser to get personalised advice before you make a decision.

myTribe is completely free to use

myTribe is free to use, companies can’t pay to appear in any of our articles, nor do we run any form of advertising. Our primary objective has always been to provide people with the information they need to understand insurance products in the UK better.

So how is myTribe funded?

After researching products and services via our website, you should always go on to speak to an independent financial adviser about your requirements. If you find an FCA authorised broker through our website by requesting a comparison quote from us or otherwise, and then purchase an insurance policy, we may earn a commission. That isn’t always the case, though, and many people use our website each year and then purchase a product directly from a provider or via another channel, which would mean we earn no commissions.
