I am glad that my trip went well and that I didn't have to file a claim but it was good knowing that I would have been covered.

fortunately, I never had to use it so I don't know how you would respond to a claim.

My partner and I bought the Travel Basic plan never thinking we would need it...but then I was unexpectedly in a bicycle accident that precluded me from travel. With the mounting medical bills I kept my fingers crossed that we could get our money back that we had already sunk into our (already belated) honeymoon without any hassle. And lo & behold, that's exactly what happened! We submitted all documents that we had and within 10 days of them receiving our claim & supporting documents, we had our checks in hand, no further questions asked. I would highly recommend Travelex Travel Basic and will be sure to purchase it again when we finally get to that honeymoon!

Although we did not need the plan, we were satisfied with the service we did receive, and we would use the plan again.

Our flight was delayed 8 hours, however I did not file a claim for expeses incurred for meals because the carrier provided breakfast and lunch and the cost would have been minimal. It was good knowing I had insurance had I needed it.

The plan was everything I needed it to be. We fortunate that we did not have to file any claims. Insurance is best when it is not used.

It's a good feeling to know that you have insurance in case you need it. On the other hand, we tried to make a claim several years ago and it was not accepted, so I have mixed feelings. But, yes, I would get this plan again for another trip.
