I did not get to use the coverage, however, I was very satisfied with the coverage and pricing especially regarding recreational scuba diving. Contacting them by phone was also very easy and friendly as well as professional to clarify coverage for recreational diving. As mentioned I did not have a claim so I can not comment on how well a claim might be handled.
Thanks for the opportunity to comment on this service

Since I didn't need to use the insurance, I have no feedback to provide. It was definitely expensive but was a requirement for the trip I went on.

I did not make this trip! Prior to the departure, I canceled, which you state in the policy, c complete refund. I was advised of a refund of only a few dollars. Not worth pursuing. Not good!

    Thank you for your feedback. Here is the refund information per the certificate of your policy:

    "You have the right to cancel the Policy at any time by giving advance notice to Our Agent or Us (stating when thereafter the cancellation shall be effective). We will refund any unearned premium to You within 10 days of cancellation."

    Since your policy was effective for the trip cancellation benefit for approximately one year, the pro-rated refund was just a fraction of the entire premium.

    If you have any questions or concerns, please call us at 800-487-4722.

Whenever I go on a trip weather in the US or to other countries. In this case to fish for Atlantic salmon on the rivers of the Gaspe in Quebec. For peace of mind i always add medical and travel insurance coverage for my journey. Global Alert was the exact coverage I needed at this time.

The selected plan provides reasonable coverage. It's a security blanket while traveling abroad.

Happily, we had no claim this trip...we are repeat customers and just feel safer when we have the travel insurance. We believe that if you can't afford the travel insurance, you can't afford your trip.
