Unfortunately, we had to cancel our trip at the last minute because of a death in our family. When I called to find out what was necessary to file a claim, the agent emailed me all of the necessary documents immediately. Once the required information was submitted, I received the payment for our claim within about 10 work days. We're certainly glad we had this coverage.

I wish someone would offer a low cost plan providing just trip cancellation coverage, but until they do I found this to be a good plan for the money.

It's always pleasant and efficient working with InsureMyTrip. I'm always looking for the best bargain with the best medical insurance coverage when traveling out of the country.

I had a misunderstanding with Nationwide and InsureMyTrip. A supervisor with InsureMyTrip took the time to research the problem and listen to the recording of my conversation with the insurance attendant. She figured out where the misunderstanding was. InsureMyTrip apologized and refunded the cost of the trip insurance I had purchased. Cannot ask for better customer service than that. The supervisor told me if ever anything happened like this again, that I should ask for a supervisor to explain the situation more thoroughly to avoid any misunderstandings. I will gladly continue to give InsureMyTrip my business for all my trip insurance needs!

I discovered shortly before a trip to Canada that my Medicare plan wouldn't cover me across the border. For peace of mind, I easily and inexpensively purchased coverage through InsureMyTrip. No medical emergency, thank goodness, but it's always better to be safe than sorry.

One would have to file a claim to find out if you are exceptional. I was glad to be covered if a need arose.
