Thank you for letting us know of the problem with the embassy. However, The Tokio Marine HCC Atlas International plan was appropriate for the Schengen Visa but you neglected to eliminate the deductible for an additional premium of 1.10 USD.

Within minutes after you purchased this policy back on July 25, 2018, Tokio Marine would have emailed your policy with instructions on how to view and print your embassy letter. Unfortunately that letter would have shown the 250 USD deductible which would not have been acceptable for the Schengen Visa.
