Very Dissapointed

As like most insurance companies there are lots of staff at hand when you wish to buy a policy.

However, its a different case when you wish to discuss a claim, I have spent a week trying to get to speak to a member of staff regarding a possible basis for a claim.

Its impossible the phone just rings out literally for hours, its hopeless!

Buy Only If You Have The Time To Send Documentation Forever!

Will never again buy travel insurance. I had to put in a claim due to an emergency trip interruption. Only buy this if you have countless hours of time to send and resend information to the insurance carrier. By the time it was all said and done I actually had a hard time remembering the trip in question. When it's time to buy the plan they are touted as the best. When it's time to pay, you are better off trying to win lotto. Granted, I am sure not all insurance companies represented by these companies are the same but certainly left a bad taste in my mouth when you have to repeat the same thing over and over to a multitude of people. Probable that with risk analysis chances of getting re-imbursed promptly are probably lower than having an issue with your trip.

Missed Flight Claim

We missed our connecting flight to Zurich in Atlanta because of weather on the 1st leg causing us to spend the night in Atlanta and wait for a flight the next day. We also missed our 1st night's stay in Zurich. I called Insure My Trip and they said that would indeed warrant a claim. We filed a claim when we got back and they fully reimbursed us the hotel and meal expenses in Atlanta, as well as, the hotel for the missed night in Zurich.

They asked for a lot of info to file the claim but they paid it with no hassle. Just make sure you get supporting documents from the airline. I would certainly use them again.

Exercised Claim For The 1st Time!

We have purchased policies through Insure My Trip numerous times. This past March we had to exercise the trip cancelation portion of the policy for the first time. The claims people were helpful and understanding. I have recommended this web site to many and will continue to do so. It does take some time to work through all the claim procedures, but not unreasonable.

East To Book, Efficient Way To Buy Insurance

I have been using InsureMyTrip for a few years now. I rarely have claims but when I did in the past InsureMyTrip was right there to assist. It is nice to know we have an advocate. Alliance was the company I selected for this trip and they were excellent to deal with. I had a small claim and was able to do everything on-line, their communication was timely and they made it easy to complete the claim by uploading the documents. No hesitation in booking with them again. I never travel without insurance and it is good to know we have choices with the top companies in the business.

Costly, But Probably Necessary.

This was a good place to shop and compare for those of us that structure our own travel itinerary. I usually do not insure my trips, but this was a "once in a lifetime" trip where I was spending a lot more than I could risk to lose. So, I needed to buy coverage. Fortunately, I did not make a claim and do not know if that would have been easy or not. I would only insure a centrally booked package next time.

Need To Highlight Known "gotchas" From Insurance Carriers

My wife and I were booked for a cruise for almost eleven (11) months in advance and booked travel insurance through InsureMyTrip.com. I was the one who selected the insurer and policy but I would expect InsureMyTrip.com to provide some important guidelines for making the policy work effectively in the event you have to collect based on a covered condition.

They didn't mention anything about making sure the travel dates were adjusted in case you booked flights in advance of the cruise travel date in order to be covered by the policy. Since the cruise was booked more than 331 days in advance of the travel dates no airlines reservations could be made. The date was an estimate for travel but the amount of coverage was set high enough to cover the anticipated expense of the air travel. When we had to cancel due to a covered sudden medical condition the insurer refused to cover the outbound airfare because it was a day before the cruise departure date. They only covered the return segment because it was on the day of the cruise ship's return to port.

InsureMyTrip.com could have done better when they must know these conditions exist.

I am the Director of Customer Operations at InsureMyTrip and I'm very sorry to hear of your unsatisfactory experience. I am not able to identify you by your ReviewCentre name, so I can't follow up with you. But, if you'll call our Customer Care Department and ask for Peter (me), Lynne or Mike, one of us will review the details of your claim with the insurance provider to see if anything further can be done. We're happy to work with our customers to help facilitate communication with the insurance provider and advocate for them when we feel a situation needs further review. I hope to hear from you. In the future when purchasing travel insurance, remember to use the date you leave home as the departure date and the date you return home as your return date. Thank you for the feedback.

Top Notch Company

I was very impressed while shopping for a company on Insure my trip web site. I asked several questions through email and they responded immediately. I also called and asked a question. They were very friendly and helpful. It seems like they offer some very good choices. We don't leave until the end of February, but after my questions were all answers I am confident we maid a good choice. They offer much better plans than our cruise ship company offered for a much cheaper price. Thank You Insure my trip.

Sincerely Mike Zahm

My family is renting a home over President's Day Weekend. Is it possible to get insurance for that stay in the event there is an emergency? Thanks.

My wife and I are citizens of the USA, but we are permanent residents of Mexico. We have our 'Residencia Permanente'.

We are even plugged into the 'Seguro Popular' health insurance down here.

We need USA medical coverage insurance for a July 23 to November 04 visit to the USA. We are both '60-64' years old. {I've seen that age-span on other websites.}

Can InsureMyTrip help us?

I could only recommend you to ask for a quote on IMT web page and decide upon the result of it. Yet, I have found that sometimes you can find a better price using a local insurance company.

I am looking for a sound provider of travel insurance for my father (82 years old). He is a Russian citizen and needs insurance covering his stay and trip in Schengen states. What are the options apart from AXA Schengen?

MaryB4

There are 5 providers offered by InsureMyTrip that will cover your grandfather. Just answer the first few questions, where you are going,when and where you are from and you will see the plans offered.

Do InsureMyTrip work in the UK?

Well, it works like a charm in Canada. I was injured on a trip and required hospitalization. I had U.S. health insurance and the insurance I bought on InsureMyTrip paid everything my U.S. health insurance did not (which was about half the bill).
