Fortunately I did not need to file a claim. I was at peace knowing that if anything happened while on my cruise, I would be covered by Nationwide. This travel policy was very reasonable.

We had purchased a policy through InsureMyTrip with Nationwide. A week before our cruise we experienced a family emergency that would prevent us from going on the cruise. I contacted the cruise line and airlines. They all let us rebook for a later time. I then contacted Nationwide, they told us they would not refund but would transfer the policy. We said that was acceptable and sent them the information they had requested. Two week later I had heard nothing so I contacted again. We were told they had not received our info. So I resent. That was the last I have heard from Nationwide.
Its not worth being upset about so we have moved on. But I do find it to be very interesting that the only "issue" we had with canceling was with the company we had purchased a policy from to prevent any "issues". We plan to continue purchasing policies through InsureMyTrip, but with some other carrier.

Didn’t need it but when it looked like we might miss our connection, we were not concerned knowing we would be covered for an unplanned overnight stay.

Customer service told me I needed a medical letter stating certain items. When I went to file the claim, there was a specific medical form that needed to be filled out. So the person had to go back to the doctor for that. The expected time to even have the claim looked at was 30 days. I called after two weeks to make sure all was rolling along. She said that she couldn't escalate it until 30 days had passed. Then 5 days later the check for the entire amount of the trip that was cancelled showed up! So a view glitches but getting full recovery of trip payment was the goal. Accomplished!

Since we did not have to use it, it’s hard to say. We did compare a few companies though the this seemed to have the best coverage for the best rate.

Since I did not have to file a claim, kind of hard to say how satisfied I was with the plan.

Insure my trip has worked to provide me with travel coverage for the past 15 years. I have always been happy with the results. I have been insured by Nationwide several times and have previously filed two travel claims. Those claims were very promptly and satisfactorily settled. I trust them with my travel coverage.
