Fortunately we didn't have to file a claim, but it was good to know we were covered in case we would of had to. This is the 2nd time we have used your insurance.

Fortunately we didn't have to use the plan. Hopefully it would have worked for us if we had. It seemed like a good plan, but you never really know until you actually need it.

It seems to be good coverage for the price. It does give you piece of mind knowing you've done what you can if you have something happen. I've never had to file a claim though.

Since I have not had to file a claim under the Travelex Travel Basic plan, I cannot comment intelligently on the value or quality of coverage of the plan.

We would absolutely recommend this plan, it was easy to follow and purchase. We didn't need to file a claim. But - we're going on another cruise in 2013 and will use this travel insurance again.

My son Thomas and wife insured the same trip at about the same time but from a different starting location. while on the trip, we compared notes and found that his insurance was about half the cost of ours and the stated values were the same. Why would that be? We thought we were requesting the same coverage but obviously something different came out.

    There are a few factors that go into rating (premium) of a policy, age of the traveler is one of them. If you'd like to discuss further, please call us (see contact information below) and we would be happy to compare both policies and explain the differences.

I was very pleased with the plan and would recommend it to others. A suggestion I might make is to tell customers when they take out the plan to be sure and save their flight and cruise plan since it is asked for if a claim is filed. I was not prepared for that request and although everything worked out well, it might have been easier if had not thrown out those things. Kathleen (Travelex Claims) was so sweet when I called to discuss my claim. Good employee. Mary
