Thankfully, I didn't need to file any claims, so I don't have the direct experience of processing a claim. But I've always had good luck with insuremytrip.com and the companies they represent.. The purchase process was clear and easy, and I think I picked the best plan for my purposes.

We have used your service in the past and are completely satisfies with the coverage and price. We've never filed a claim but it's comforting to know the coverage is there if needed.

There is no way to evaluate a plan when you had no reason to file a claim. I mainly bought it to cover a major medical emergency, and I'm happy there was none. I would likely buy again under similar circumstances, under the assumption that I would be covered if needed. However, there's no way to tell in advance.

I recently returned from overseas where I had a ski accident and emergency surgery/hospitalization. We reached out to our travel insurer Generali which ultimately worked out but not without some stress along the way. It took a very long time to work out the travel arrangements home, where we needed to be upgraded to business class so I could travel the 8 1/2 hours home more comfortably. We were traveling with a family of 4 and needed to retain our existing flights from the same airport or something comparable so we could travel home together. I'll spare the details here but there were bumps along the road getting this taken care of effectively. The associate we worked was very responsive and as helpful as he could be but it appeared that the back office with whom he had to deal was less than efficient in taking care of the details, or didn't understand what was required. Happy to share details if customer service wants to call me.
Once arriving to our home airport there was supposed to be a medical transport vehicle meeting us so again I could travel to my residence in a manner where I could extend my leg which was in a brace and recently operated on., It took a long time to find our driver at the airport and once we did he did not arrive with a suitable means of transportation. The car awaiting us was a Cadillac Escalade which had bucket seats throughout and had a step required to get into the car. I had to be lifted by my family and the driver to even get into the car and the ride home was excruciating. I could not extend my leg comfortably and traveled the two hours to our apartment in extreme pain. Granted it was rush hour so the ride was longer than usual, but the driver took a very long and arduous route that could have been avoided.
Once home the claims were filed and everything was taken care of quickly and efficiently. I have no issue with the claims process, but the service while away and upon arriving home left something to be desired.

Really can’t review honestly as we did not have to use it. We thought it was a great plan and hope it would have providdd the coverage it promised if we had to use it.

System was user friendly but other than signing up for it I had no contact with anyone. Like all insurance, (home and car) I believe if you don’t ever have to use it there should be some incentive to have money returned to you as a bonus for not using it! I’m 68 yrs old and have paid cray insurance rates since I was 16 and never had to put a claim in! All that money wastedâ€just in case!†Insurance companies should be giving refunds to people who never collect a cent from them! Just my thoughts!

did not have to invoke insurance, we had no need to cancel, etc so hard to say. Price seemed reasonable.

It was a comfort knowing that I had protection. I'm thrilled that I didn't need it. Thanks for keeping the rates affordable.

Wanted to extend my trip by 48 hours and was not able to extend the coverage without purchasing a new plan.

Comprehensive policies cannot be extended or purchased after departure date. However, Travel Medical plans can be. If you end up in a situation like this, you always have the ability to purchase some protection.
