We are an independent website that helps people understand private healthcare and health insurance in the UK.

  • Is myTribe regulated and can we trust your information?

    Yes. myTribe Insurance Experts is a trading name of Mytribe Health Limited, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA reference: 1008629). Our team includes Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) qualified professionals, including our founder Chris Steele. We also invest in ongoing professional development, ensuring our knowledge stays up to date and the information we share remains accurate and reliable.

  • Where is myTribe Insurance Experts based?

    Our office is located at Colonnade House, Westover Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, BH1 2BY. However, our website is used by people across the UK, and we support customers nationwide.

  • How does myTribe make money if the service is free?

    All of our content and tools are free to use. If you request a comparison quote and then buy insurance through one of our partner brokers, we may receive a commission. This never increases the cost to you, and you’re under no obligation to purchase.

  • Are you affiliated with any insurance providers?

    No. myTribe Insurance Experts is completely independent and not owned by or tied to any insurer.

  • What qualifications does your team have?

  • What are the benefits of getting a quote through myTribe?

    We carefully select and monitor our partner brokers to ensure consistently high standards of service. If issues arise, we step in to resolve them and adjust our recommendations.

"The information was very helpful and informative.  They put me in touch with an extremely helpful broker.  I am now moving to a different provider, on a better policy, at a much reduced premium."

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.
