Because I didn’t need to file a claim, my answers are baseless and should have centered more around ease of website etc., not my satisfaction with the policy.

Didn't use the plan so no opinion on how well it works. Have always found the cost of CSA's plans very reasonable compared with others available.

Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection
ExactCare Value
I had a claim - I had to return early due to family illness. I started a claim w/ Berkshire Hathaway and rep sounded OK. Then I got their emailed long list of 13 Dr. statements, ID copies, consent forms, hotel receipts, cancellation policy of the airline[s], ticket copies, ticket numbers, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. they needed before they could begin to review my claim.
It would have taken me hours to get all this material together, if I could of at all. I would guess this is a technique they use to minimize payouts. I feel it would be a waste of my time to try to collect everything they wanted.
I thought one of Warren's companies would be better than this!!! Interesting dichotomy - ins. companies want to sell policies, but then they don't want to pay....

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry that you were dissatisfied with your claim experience. It is industry standard for an insurance provider to require documentation to substantiate a claim. We understand that this can be a frustrating process, but we do want you and your fellow customers to be aware that InsureMyTrip offers a Customer Advocate Program. Customer Advocates are representatives assigned to assist customers who experience issues after filing a claim. Requesting a Customer Advocate is as simple as calling 800-487-4722 or emailing [email protected], explaining the events which resulted in a claim, and the challenges you are facing.Aug 31,2017

fortunately I didn't need to make a claim of any kind; but I found the process of selecting and deciding on a plan very easy, thanks to the helpful reps.....since i didn't use it I've no idea how it would have functioned had I needed the coverage, but it was worth the cash for the peace of mind.

4 star means that I spent too much on a policy that we did not use but at the same time this policy gave us a peace of mind that we were covered if a problem came up. 5 star if we needed to use the policy and that use out weighted the cost of the policy that it was necessary to have and you had covered us to the terms of the policy. So all in all, thank you.

Would be interested to know if there was an annual family plan rather than individual prices?

Thank you for submitting your feedback. Unfortunately, we do not currently offer annual comprehensive policies. However, we do offer annual travel medical plans. These plans provide coverage for medical emergency and emergency medical evacuation expenses.
If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact our office at 800-487-4722 where a licensed representative would be happy to help you.

I had a claim filed. The claim has now been rejected because delayed luggage by a unionized baggage handler is not covered. This resulted in a missed connection whereby another ticket had to be purchased on a different airline. No reimbursement for the additional ticket.

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to learn of the unfortunate event that occurred during your trip.
Comprehensive plans are designed to cover as many risks as possible, but is very rare for any insurance plan to cover all possible risks. We strongly recommend customers read the terms and conditions of the policy within the review period to determine if the policy fits your needs. If the policy does not fit your needs, it can be cancelled within the review period for a refund of premium. Please call us at 800-487-4722 if you have any questions or concerns.Jul 25,2017
Thank you
