Please see the response from Generali:
"We are sorry the plan did not meet your expectation. We design our plans with today's travelers in mind, keeping the cost within reason and providing coverage for the main reasons you may have to cancel. Unfortunately, like other insurance plans you have, travel insurance cannot cover everything. In the event that you have additional information that was not previously submitted, showing that your loss was due to one of the Covered Events in the policy, you may submit this information via our eclaims portal (https://travelinsurance-us.eclaims.csaclaims.com) for further evaluation of your claim.

DON'T USE GENERALI. Pay a little more and get AIG, Allianz or someone else.
Our Generali policy was a cruise in Tahiti in March. I could not get anyone to answer the phone in 25 calls. When I did get a response to an email after 2 weeks of trying, they said I had to pay 40% more to change the dates to next year for exactly the same coverage with no changes other than the date.
AIG easily switched the policy dates for another trip I had planned so they are by far the better company.
GENERALI is a rip-off and InsuremyTrips shouldn't even show them as an option.

Thank you for your review. Generali Global Assistance has issued the following response:
"We're sorry to hear about the circumstances surrounding your experience, and for not meeting your expectations. Our goal is to provide a smooth and seamless experience for all of our customers. Unfortunately, as stated in our policy documents, our plans only reimburse for non-refundable, pre-paid trip costs if you need to cancel your trip for a covered reason.

We take the claims process very seriously and want our customers to make informed choices when purchasing travel insurance."Jun 04,2020-

According to your policy I was suppose to be reimbursed for cost of cancellation that was not reimbursed. Read your policy. Your company apologized after months of ignoring promised me a credit to my card then never did. .Jan 06,2022-

Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for your feedback. Please see the response from Generali below:
"We're sorry to hear about the circumstances surrounding your claim and apologize for not meeting your expectations. While the plan you purchased includes a variety of different covered events that can qualify for Trip Cancellation coverage, the plan is unfortunately unable to provide coverage for government imposed travel restrictions. Our records indicate that a voucher for the premium was issued and dedicated team members are on hand to help you with its use. Please contact (800) 348-9505 or [email protected] for further assistance. "Jan 13,2022

We filed a claim on 3/21/20. My husband hurt his back and was not able to travel to Chile as planned. We got an email on 3/30/20 that we would get another email when our claim person was assigned. We haven't heard anything since. We tried calling and you get an answering machine. I realize they have a lot of claims due to Covid but ours isn't and it is 6 weeks and they said they would respond in 30 days. We are very disappointed. We have bought trip insurance for years and this is the first time we had to use it.

We were told after we filed our claim that the maximum benefit they could give us was $300.00 Our expenses were more than that for the extra day. We paid almost that much for the insurance, so I guess we almost broke even. It was very difficult to file a claim. I spent hours doing it as I am no computer expert and it was hard to provide all the receipts. I don't think it was worth it in the long run.

I did not have to file a claim. I think I read that no claims would be paid due to Corona Virius. I hope this is not the case. We had no problem with our flights.
