It's harder to review the Nationwide plan having, essentially, not used it. I chose this plan for coverage and value.

There was no need to contact your company for a reimbursement so I can't rate your service..

The Nationwide Mutual insurance plan provided peace of mind during our trip. We incurred no problems and were glad to not have claims to file.

The Nationwide Mutual Essential Plan covered what I needed at a lower cost than cruise line and I was able to also cover my airfare.

I have purchase travel insurance with Nationwide insurance in the past. I also purchased through them for a February cruise vacation. They have less restrictions than so of the other insurance providers at a lower cost.
Fortunately, I have not had to use the insurance.

We were unable to go on our overseas trip due to unexpected illness/surgery of elderly father. After a phone call to Nationwide Mutual, we received and completed a claim form, and received a check for payment in full in a prompt manner. We travel frequently, have always purchased trip insurance for overseas travel, had never had to file a claim, and were apprehensive as to outcome. Would highly recommend to other users.

I didn't need it, but I was glad I had it. If you are going on a trip, buy this coverage. Don't put it off, so that you are able to get a pre-existing conditions waiver.

I had a damaged large spinner suitcase when I arrived at my home airport. The pull handle was completely broken off meaning I will have to buy a new one. I considered filing a claim but when I read the policy, I realized it would not be worth my while because articles are not covered during actual processing/handling. Well, then basically the luggage isn't covered during the trip at all.
