Depends on your medical history & age, as to premiums. There are some maladys not covered, ie alcoholism.

Yes it is and no you would not be covered for pre-existing conditions.

\\\ Really sorry I never joined many years ago.\\\

Quite.

Look at other medical insurance companies too, cone - BUPA's only one of them, there are loads of others. Even if you joined years ago, the premiums with BUPA go up as you get older, so there's no advantage to joining when young - and now, they probably won't cover you for existing medical conditions.
I gave up BUPA when the premiums got to be more than I could afford each year.

I am in Benenden - from I was 16 but I pay a paltry amount - you know it just covers this and that - maybe waiting too long for nhs wait etc. I am perhaps now thinking maybe if I upped my premiums it may cover more for me for me - thanks for pointing that out to me - better stay where I am.
