Travel Insurance (ex-pat in DXB)

Hi All,

Returned to Dubai for second round of ex-patism in January. Until recently held comprehensive travel insurance but most of what you purchase in the UK & EU relies on your travelling from your home there. Any recommendations for a provider that can provide cover for a UAE resident? (And, if it matters, still has an address in the UK?)
(I'm currently in the UK on leave and realised travel insurance has expired!)

If you can claim any "reasonable" link to the UK military, try PAX. Very cheap, good cover.

I love this travel insurance company:

World Nomads - Travel Insurance Quote

It covers me for most any activities that I enjoy doing. Be sure to read the fine print on insurance coverage. I found that the AXA insurance doesn't cover you terribly well if you plan activities much more adventurous on your vacation than sitting around in a hotel lobby or strolling about in the shopping mall.

The bonus with World Nomads is you can buy it from any computer using a credit card.

(Hint: Do a google search for World Nomads discount code or promo code to easily get yourself a 5% to 7% discount on their rates).
