Appreciate that we can get a plan to insure the basic tour cost. While traveling within the United States, we don't feel it's necessary to emphasize the extra insurance for luggage, medical, etc.

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. Nationwide travel insurance plans do not offer a rental car collision damage waiver when traveling to Ireland. The reason for this may stem from restrictions imposed by rental car companies in Ireland. Some countries restrict third party and/or foreign Collision Damage Waiver. Some rental car companies restrict third party and/or foreign Collision Damage Waiver. In general, travelers should always check with the rental car company to see if they accept third party auto insurance.Jun 23,2015

Purchased for protection in case of medical needs while out of country. Good peace of mind. I did not need to use this policy. Previous trip was delayed and similar policy helped with extra costs incurred.

The only issue was that I didn't know that I had to buy the insurance when I made the initial payment. You are unclear as to when this occurs - is the initial payment when I make the hold payment? Or is it when I make the initial 50% of trip payment?

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. The Initial Trip Payment is the very first time any money of any kind was paid for any part of your trip. Even if the payment you made was refundable at one point in time, it is still considered the initial trip payment. The redemption of points or miles, while not an actual monetary exchange, would still constitute as an initial trip payment if they were the first transaction you made for your trip. In determining the initial trip payment date, the insurance providers claims department will request specific documentation showing the date the credit card number was provided to the travel supplier or when the check was written.Jun 16,2015
