Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
I am was pleased that I did not get to use the plan. But it was a great comfort to know that I had the coverage if I needed it. In the future I would use TruTravel and recommend it to others. Also, I inquired about pricing with 2 other insurance companies and I found TruTravel to be the most reasonable.

This is the second time I have used InsureMyTrip. All went well this time, but the 1st time we were delayed 2 days, and filing a claim & getting a check was easy and efficient. I will continue to use their services on future travel.

My husband and I travel to Mexico twice a year on average and we always get insurance. We would much prefer to go on the vacation but you never know what may happen! And this time it did!..We are totally pleased with the customer service department and the promptness our claim was processed. We already have our checks and it was only 3 weeks ago.

I purchased the Super Saver plan never thinking i would use it. Bad weather caused a two day travel delay and it cost me additional expenses. I filed a claim and got money within weeks. I am complete satisfied! I worked with Nicole(Tru Travel Claims) and she was awesome.

    I agree! I also purchased the same plan and had to file a claim for the Princess Cruise Norovirus incident when our cruise was shortened by two days. This was considered a trip interruption and my claim was processed the same day I submitted it by e-mail. I was told I will be receiving a check in 10-12 days! No hassles at all. I will definitely be using Tru Travel again and again! Mary in Missouri

We always use InsureMyTrip for all of our vacations. Fortunately, we have never had to file a claim, but we travel worry-free knowing we have the coverage should anything ever happen.

I felt I needed some type of insurance to travel. I did compare and felt the price was acceptable for something I hoped to not use. I also wanted it to be enough if I did need it. I do know there is a glossary to follow but the language for all the insurances is difficult to decipher.
