I purchased this plan in November 2019 for the entire cost of my trip. On February 20 I filed a claim on line because no one would ever pick up the phone. I stayed on line for hours. During this time I was very persistent and continued to follow up with trying to get refunds from the carriers and all vendors, was able to receive refunds on my own. However, some companies would not refund any money. I continued to try and contact C&F thru emails and by telephone and one day actually got someone on the phone who claimed to to be a supervisor. Went over everything with her and she required additional documents of which I had previously sent multiple times. I waited months for any answer. I emailed and called this person and it always went to voice mail. I left lots of messages and never received even one response.
I finally reached out to NYS Dept of Finance who licensed this company. Within days of filing a claim with the state the were sending me my settlement.
It took filing a claim t with NYS to get a refund. Too bad that they do not send you a breakdown because they did not send the entire amount. Need to threaten to go back to state until they paid in full.
Will never use this company again.

They state on their website they are refunding for canceled trips without claims due to Covid. It is been 10 weeks and I have not received anything except excuses. I will not purchase from them again.

Thank you for your feedback.
I am happy to see that Nationwide did refund your premium. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic and current climate of traveling this request did take much longer than usual.
We hope you will reach out to us at InsureMyTrip for future travel insurance needs.Sep 21,2020

My claim was denied during the COVID-19 global pandemic during the height of government lock downs and a time that was literally impossible to travel.
I filed a claim on April 22, 2020 for our honeymoon travel to the U.K. between May 9th- May 23. I took nearly a month to get back to me May 21st (which is some what reasonable because I am sure they have been swamped with claims). I booked the travel myself which made it a pain to file the claim.
In the end I was denied because the policy didn't mention "pandemic" specifically but it does mention natural disasters and quarantines. In their review they stated that a travel embargo is not a quarantine but that seems like lawyer speak to me. To be honest, I would not have even known to look for specific pandemic text when I planned the trip last September.
I feel like my claim got "lawyer-ed" which I guess is what happens in the insurance world but I will never use any service of Nationwide's again and I would not recommend their service to any one.

I didn't file a claim so I have no idea how easy it would be to do so and get reimbursement.

Thankfully, didn’t not need to use the insurance on my European trip. I am hopeful that if I did need to use it, there wouldn’t be any hassle. Sign up was easy.

I was extremely impressed with this. I had to have minor surgery while in Europe. They helped get me to a hospital, prearranged for payment directly to the hospital, and promptly paid for my out of pocket expenses.
Thank goodness I got this insurance. Seriously never travel abroad without it!

It was very nice to have it I was very comfortable just in case I have to cancel my trip I have nothing to worry about. I went on my trip so didn't cancel it all.
