Travel Insurance Reviews AXA Assistance USA Platinum

The AXA Assistance USA Platinum plan offers the highest limits of coverage out of all three AXA Assistance plans. Just like the AXA Assistance USA Gold plan, the Platinum plan provides additional Travel Delay benefits along with coverage if your golf or ski trip is disrupted due to Inclement Weather. Another added benefit is coverage for Sports Equipment Rental coverage.

This is the only company I use for travel insurance. My husband had emergency surgery while we were traveling in Taiwan. He ended up in the hospital for eleven days plus his admittance in the ER. All bills were paid including follow up visits. I also use them for travel in the USA as my ACA coverage doesn't extend beyond my provider network. They are easy to work with and provide excellent service.

Didn't have to use it. But the rates were just as much, if not more everywhere else and didn't get the cancel anytime option as I did with this plan.

We had to cancel our trip after being diagnosed with Influenza in March 2020. I was concerned that our claim would be seriously delayed due to the number of COVID-19 claims, but was pleased to receive a check in the mail for the full amount within three weeks of submitting our claim. Just purchased a policy from the same company for our rescheduled trip in October.

This is the worst experience I've ever had. I have been trying to file a claim for 4 days but no one ever answers the phone. I was on hold over three hours yesterday no one picks up. Absolutely a scam.

There were a few unexpected flight delays going to France and coming home but luckily the airlines was able to make provisions without any extra costs. It was peace of mind to having the insurance.

Although we didn't have to file a claim on this trip, we have learned our lesson on the importance of trip insurance for overseas trips. We have had to utilize the services for insurance in the past and the experience with the carrier was superb. We would have lost a lot of money in medical services and cancelled reservations that were not refundable. We don't travel without it now.

STAY AWAY FROM AXA INSURANCE. An insurance plan is only as good as the claim process, and my experience was terrible. My hotel reservation was cancelled 4 hours prior to arrival, due to the hotel booking firm going out of business. I called to ask whether my policy covered this as I was not sure if it did. The customer service person promised me a response in 2 hours, as he was also not sure, but none came. More than 24 hours later (during which time I had to scramble to rebook the hotel at a higher cost), I received an email saying I had filed a Trip Interruption claim (I had not - and it didn't seem that it would be covered under this section anyway) and asking for documentation they knew I wouldn't have. There was no explanation as to why they sent this and suggested I file under that. I emailed back to explain the situation as I assumed the phone rep had not understood or correctly communicated it, and question what the email was about but received no reply. I also received no further communications asking if I needed further assistance, or wished to proceed with my claim. All-in-all this was a very frustrating experience under stressful circumstances, I will not buy from AXA Assistance again.

Trip was cancelled so I didn't need this - and had no way of knowing how to cancel so I wouldn't be charged.
