We always buy trip insurance when we travel to skiing. Prior to this year, only once in 10 years have we had to make use of the secondary medical coverage benefit in these trip insurance policies, and in that prior experience the coverage, service, and support were exceptional. This year we had a party-member injured on the trip and we were shocked and disappointed to learn the coverage did NOT include continuing medical care required after our return from the trip. In the previous experience, the secondary medical benefit provided a full year of follow-up care for the injury incurred during the trip (after our primary coverage benefit). In the policy we bought this year, not a single cost incurred for treatment once we returned from the trip is included for coverage. This difference in (absence of) secondary medical coverage benefit needs to be made very clear in the highlights presented when a person is shopping in your on-line market. Sure - buyer beware. I get that. So, you got me once, but I will bring my shopping business somewhere else every other time going forward. We are very unhappy. We feel very cheated. We are telling everyone we know to be beware of your service.

Thank you for your review. Travel insurance is meant to cover you while traveling. Most plans will have coverage end once you return home, as your home health insurance is meant to kick in. In the future, please call us at 800-487-4722 and we can assist you with finding plans that cover your concerns.Jan 15,2020-

As you clearly acknowledge, some plans end coverage (perhaps most, as you say) upon return home, but that then means some do not end this coverage. That is the distinction my comment suggest be made clear in your online sales platform. We have always intended to purchase the coverage which continues a true 'secondary' health benefit. Because you platform did not make clear which plans did and did not provide this, we were left disappointed. As I said before - buyer beware. You will not get me again.Jan 15,2020

I have purchased several times from this company but never had to make a claim so I have no idea how actually valuable buying this insurance is. I just attempted to buy again for another trip but the price went from $49. to $601. Obviously didn't make the purchase and cannot recommend buying this insurance at the new rates. I did find another company to purchase reasonably priced plan.

Not having to make a claim, I can only comment on apparent value for the plan which I think was quite good. Sufficient coverage for a good price by a well respected company. That’s a winner in my book!

I did not take this trip, cancelled the cruise months before. In other words I wasted money on a trip I did not take.

Thank you for your review. Most plans come with a review period in which you are able to review the policy and cancel for a refund. Once you are outside of the review period typically no refund will be issued but we can request to transfer the policy to a future trip, to not lose the insurance premium. Please feel free to contact us at 800-487-4722 and we can review the options available with your travel insurance policy.Jan 15,2020

Fortunately I didn't have to make any claims, so I can't speak to the claims process. The policy seemed to provide reasonable coverage and was pretty easy to purchase. It was a bit pricey, mostly, I think, because my husband and I are older.

Thank you for your review. The premiums are based on the age of the travelers, the length of the trip and the cost of the trip. Unfortunately, as travelers get older, it does cause the insurance premiums to increase.Jan 08,2020

I will definitely purchase another travel plan with your company. Even though, thankfully, we did not have to use it, the peace of mind knowing we had coverage if a medical emergency occurred was reassuring.You offer a fantastic service to travelers.

Thank you for your review. Travel insurance is reimbursement based and this policy is one of reimbursement. There are times when insurance providers can advance payment, based on the situation. During the trip you can always contact the insurance providers 24 Hour Emergency Assistance Center. At that time they can medically monitor you and if medical costs were high they may have been able to give the hospital details to forward any bills. After confirming the claim was deemed covered the final decision to pay would be made. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us at 800-487-4722 and we would be more than happy to assist you.

I was happy with the plan when we bought it, thus the first two items on the survey are positive.
I fell during the trip and called the insurance number. So, I'm in pain with my damaged foot. My last name is unusual (in that not that many people at all have it), and I had the policy number. All I got from the person I was talking to on the international call was that she could not bring up my file if I could not give her the CONFIRMATION number of the policy. So frustrating. I ended the call and fended for myself.
