I can say how good this plan is, because I did not have to file a claim. By having this plan made me feel comfortable if there was a need.

How are you supposed to make a claim
When no-one answers the phone, or responds to emails. I have sent 3 emails and called 5 times and not a single answer. This is unacceptable! I took this policy based on a Clark Howard recommendation, and if I can’t make a claim, then what’s the point!

It’s hard to rate travel insure when there was no need to file a claim. My only ratings can be based on cost and coverage comparisons with other companies offerings.

Didn't have to use the insurance but the coverage seemed good and gave peace of mind. Still, pretty expensive.

I had COVID and the insurance policy I paid for turned out to be absolutely useless. Never again will I use Generali Global Assistance company, this is why:
I tested positive for COVID using my home test kit while in Melbourne, AU. I tried but couldn’t find a testing facility to obtain an “official doctor notice”. I contacted Generali assistance line for help with locating a facility to certify my test result. They found a place in Perth (!) which is on the other side of the continent! After explaining this to the rep they advised me to use “Google” although I had told them I had already tried the Google route in vain and that’s why I was calling them. No other solution was offered. Now I can not even submit my claim because I don’t have a medical doctor notice certifying I had COVID. I do have pictures of the test result, but it is “not official”.

Our trip to Iceland was interrupted by a winter storm that caused a government mandated closure of the roads and prevented us from getting to our return flight. We had to reschedule for the next day at an additional charge. Generali denied what would seem to be obviously a trip interruption and/or delay using logic that defies common sense. They are not to be trusted to do the right thing. The fine print is more important than their concern for their customers.
