I had to cancel my trip due to dental problems. My representative was very helpful and everyone was wonderful. I would definitely use them the next time I travel. My check is being sent out this week.

The trip included a
cruise
Generali Global Assistance Standard
I am now in the 5th month of attempting to obtain a partial refund for a trip that had to be cancelled due to a dire medical diagnosis and subsequent treatment. The diagnosis was early enough to allow me to cancel the cruise and reduce the insurance request by 50% of the purchased coverage amount. I was on the insurance web site when I contacted the insurance rep through the chat feature and was informed that I did not have a claim submitted (even though the web site showed the claim number, date of claim, and the heading "Claim in Progress" - I have a screenshot). As we were discussing this, the screen suddenly changed to report that I had no claim. When I questioned this, the rep had "no idea" how this happened. I hope I am sending this review prematurely and I am going to receive the partial refund (then I will amend this review) but I am proceeding to answer now as I received a request to do so from the company to review how I enjoyed my cruise.

Website was easy to use and documents were accessible immediately after paying. I did not have to make a claim so I cannot comment on how actual coverage compares to what was described in the policy.

I would give zero stars if that was an option. We had insured our cruise and the flights to and from. The flight to the cruise was cancelled, and after over 2 months of back and forth, the insurance company declined our claim

The worst travel insurance company EVER! When I realized that the plan did NOT cover complications from normal pregnancy I tried to cancel the plan within the ten day grace period. It took me over 6 hours on the phone, had to file no less than four exception requests which went unanswered for weeks. The time it took to deal with an exception requesting to cancel put me outside the ten day grace period so they refused it again. I cancelled all insurance with them and found a more reputable company.

Warning: Before purchasing and paying any premium for travel insurance make sure you read the actual policy and review EVERY possible reason that that travel insurance company could use to deny your claim.

    Thank you for your feedback, Michele. We're sorry to hear about the circumstances surrounding your claim and apologize for not meeting your expectations. We want our customers to choose the correct policy to fit their needs and cannot stress enough that it is important to review the coverage details of our plans via the Plan Document that’s provided at the time of purchase, and contact us at (800) 348-9505 or via email at [email protected] with any additional questions. We have dedicated customer service representatives who can clarify the plan terms and conditions and guide you towards the best coverages. While the plan you purchased includes approximately 20 different covered events that can qualify for Trip Cancellation coverage, the plan is unfortunately unable to provide coverage for every event that might cause you to cancel. If there is something specific that you want to be sure is covered, please reach out to us before you purchase your plan. If you have any further questions, please reach out to us at the phone or email listed above.
