John Hancock Silver
We've never filed a claim before.This was a trip of a lifetime for the family and our 30th anniversary. Two weeks in Australia-part with adventures by Disney and part on our own. We had lots of tough stuff like skydiving on the beach planned and wanted (needed) special coverage, just in case.

We made a mistake-we listened to the travel agent and booked the domestic portion of the trip on American Airlines. Two days of our trip we were trapped in Dallas Texas instead of playing in Sydney Australia. We missed the sydney symphony in the Sydney opera house-surfing at Manley beach-and a full day of the organized tour.

We called the emergency claim number while trapped in Dallas airport and insure my trip was the only nice voice we heard for two days.

We filed the claim upon return and they were terrific. Didn't need the special coverage (glad we had it for skydiving) but for the ordinary issues we did need the coverage and they were the best.

We can never get the wasted time and missed activities back, but the cost was recovered and expenses were too. Quickly, easily, and fairly.

Now if only John Hancock ran American Airlines.....

Bought a good plan for cancellation for any reason with one of the more reasonable prices (sort of), did not have to use it. Found their Emailed package and instructions very clear and easy to use.

    Having trip coverage certainly helps you focus on the important things like enjoying the travel experience and destination, even when you don't have to use it.
    We appreciate the opportunity to provide coverage for you and hope you will consider AXA Assistance USA for future travels.

Maybe would recommend AXA. We had a huge claim with them almost two years ago and it isn't completely resolved yet and is being turned over to Collections in Australia.
We call and call and write emails and the hospital there has tried as well. AXA doesn't answer anyone...only ever has more forms and questions. This time no claims. Last time a nightmare.

InsureAssist TravCan Premier
We purchased a Gold Plan for an expensive trip to Antarctica and Patagonia.
Unfortunately, the ship suffered major engine failure and our voyage scheduled
a few weeks later was cancelled. Our plans to tour Patagonia were also cancelled.
We contacted the Insurance company who provided a complete set of claim forms.
We worked to reschedule aspects of our trip and obtain credits where possible.
Despite our efforts we were faced with a significant loss. However, we are pleased
to report that the Insurance Company responded in a timely manner and provided a
check to cover our loss. That's right....no request for additional information. No hassles.
No delays. They behaved exactly as we wished and they will continue to be our Insurance
Company for all future trips. Well done!.

One never knows how good an insurance plan is until he has to use it. Luckily, once again I have not had to use the plan I purchased. My trip and stay in Australia was all that I'd hoped it would be and more. Thanks your for the service that you provide.

AXA Assistance USA Gold
I missed my connecting flight due to a trip delay from another flight in. I ended up having to stay in another city for two nights and then buy another one way ticket to my final destination. At first when I spoke with the representive at this company they had said it shouldn't be a problem resolving this claim. I sent in all the necessary paperwork on the eligible claim and was eventually reimbursed on the entire loss after having to make many phone calls and jump through multiple hoops with AXA. It's a good plan, but be prepared to not get reimbursed for your entire claim unless you jump through multiple hoops and spend several hours calling on the phone with them.

HTH Worldwide Trip Protector Preferred
Fortunately, we did not have to seek covered services during our trip, though both my husband and I did each take a fall! However, it gave me great peace of mind to know that we could go directly to a provider that was in the network in the places we visited, rather than having to go through a claims process. For that reason, I will insure my future trips with HTH Worldwide.

I submitted a claim for dental coverage for a dental problem which arose late on my cruise. Although no dentist was available to me, my claim was denied because dental treatment was not obtained during the voyage. In my opinion, the insurer rigidly adhered to the written policy without consideration of the claim circumstances. No compromise was made. I expect that inflexible and uncompromising approach typifies their claims review process so I cannot recommend this travel insurance company.

    We’re sorry to hear about the circumstances surrounding your claim and apologize for not meeting your expectations. We take customer service and the claims review process very seriously and cannot stress enough to our customers that it is important they review the coverage details of our plans via the sample Description of Coverage/Insurance Policy that’s provided at the time of purchase, and contact us at (800) 348-9505 or via email at [email protected] with any additional questions you may have. While the Medical and Dental coverage included in the plan you purchased can typically provide coverage for medical treatments received within one year from the time you become unexpectedly sick or injured during your trip, the plan can only provide coverage for emergency dental treatments that are incurred during your trip. If you have any further questions regarding the claims process please reach out to us at the number or email provided above.

C&F Travel Insured International Worldwide Trip Protector
I called to file a missed connection claim. I got this insurance for my son Ryan. His Brisbane to LA Flight was delayed. Consequently, he missed his JFK to JAX flight which was a separate booking.
The CF Travel Insurance agent I talked to told me the Missed Connection coverage is only for cruises. The explanation of benefits just says Missed Connection $500 . Who would think this ONLY applies on CRUISES? They should add in parenthesis Cruises only. This is just pure corporate fine print scheme. I've always used Insuremytrip for all my travel insurance. I'm so sorry I selected C&F.

    Thank you for providing your feedback on this policy.

    The coverage for missed connection can vary depending on the policy. It is very important to read through the certificate to understand fully how this benefit is covered under each plan.

    C&F Travel Insured states under the Worldwide Trip Protector plan: "If You miss Your cruise or tour departure because Your arrival at Your Trip destination is delayed for 3 or more hours..."

    When planning your next trip, please consider calling us at 1-800-487-4722 and speaking with one of our licensed representatives. We are open 7 days a week and can assist in finding you the right coverage for your trip.
