I feel the rate for a customer of my (advanced) age is way too high, and will severely impact upon my decision for future travel and/or insurance coverage. I realize insurance companies need to make a profit, and a big one at that, but preferably not always on the backs of its senior customers. I have yet to see real comparison figures of calamities of elderly travelers and younger lower-rate-paying travelers. My hunch is not great differences as the elderly provide better self care, and less risk taking.

The insurance plan gave us peace of mind if we needed any assistance. Thankfully, everything went well.

Thankfully we did not need to use the plan. The price and coverage is why we chose this plan.

Fortunately, we did not have to use this insurance plan. However, we did have a comfort level that if something did go wrong, we would be covered sufficiently.

I did not need to use the travel insurance but I was glad that I had it...I had a worry-free vacation knowing that the insurance was there to take care of me if necessary.

Global Alert!
Preferred Plus
I have in the past used Global Alert many times successfully. Now, I DO NOT recommend them.
I recently took a 4 month trip. I had pneumonia and saw 2 doctors and a hospital, straight illness claim. I filed the claim the day after we returned. (May 3), I was told on May 10th, good to go to process. On May 21st, I called to check on claim, Trip Mate has sold my claim to Broadspire for processing. Trip mate (who legally owns the claim), has no status, the file is closed. Broadspire, is a workers comp processor, does not answer the phone. Leave a message. No Update on my claim. This process started on May 1, 2018, there was no notification, only status update that my claim was closed and no benefits paid.
Who needs this grief, Do not use this company Global Alert, if they are aligned with TripMate. You have no idea what's happening. No idea of claim status. Its been 4 weeks and I have no idea who has the file or when it will be paid.

Thank you for taking the time to submit your review.
Global Alert, who is no longer writing new travel insurance policies, is in the process of securing a new underwriter. In the meantime, TripMate who previously handled claims for Global Alert, has transferred all responsibilities to Broadspire. You will be pleased to hear that Broadspire was very amenable to expediting your claim.
Upon receiving your comments, we assigned your claim to Gail who is your Anytime Advocate. Gail contacted Broadspire who assured us that a claims representative would contact you to advise you that she would be processing your claim. If the company has all the documentation, Broadspire should be able to process your payment immediately and send it to management for final review.
In the meantime, we are publishing your review but request that you let us know once you have received your check. You can call Customer Care weekdays from 7:00 AM to midnight ET and weekends from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM ET.May 25,2018

I feel that the plan was cost effective and that it offers the most important items I care to insure.
I didn't have to file any claims thus I can't comment on their service.

One never knows about these plans until one has a claim. We had no issues, but we felt good knowing that there was coverage behind us.
