Nationwide Mutual Insurance
Essential
We have been buying trip insurance for many years, and aside from a couple of small trip delay claims, have never had a claim. Until now.
We purchased the insurance in March when we made a deposit on a trip to Vietnam, and more critically, also purchased the quite expensive flights. The trip was to leave in late December. By October, it had become obvious that my wife's hip problem would make the trip impossible. So we canceled the trip and were out about $4300. Hence, our first ever major claim.
I contacted the claims department and was emailed all the documents with instructions. Once we procured the medical verification from our doctor, all was submitted by email and the claim was paid in full. Me, my wife and her new hip hope to reschedule the trip in the future, which will be just that much easier to do since we suffered no financial loss on this canceled trip. This insurance worked perfectly, and the claims process was easy, efficient and fair.

All insurance companies are bogus. Now I know about trip delay. They don't reimburse you for anything unless the flight was delayed 6 hours or more. We misses our transfer flight and delayed our tour and got nothing back.

This was the first time after many years of international travel that I used travel insurance. It was easy to understand, easy to access and reasonably priced (I did a little comparison). I didn’t use it at all

Luckily we did not need to use our insurance, but it was comforting to know we had coverage with a reliable company should emergency arise. Pricing was competitive and considered money well spent!

I bought "cancel for any reason" trip insurance. The tour company I was going with went out of business. Nationwide denied my claim saying the reason wasn't a covered expense! Even though I paid extra for "cancel for any reason" insurance. The tour company went out of business! I resubmitted the claim and they paid it, but only at 75%. I should have read the policy more carefully - 75% when you buy their best insurance policy isn't acceptable.

We are sorry to hear that Nationwide initially denied your claim. As the claims representative stated, there is no coverage under Trip Cancellation in the Nationwide Prime plan if your travel provider goes out of business.
However, you did purchase the optional "Cancel for Any Reason" coverage which reimburses you if you cancel your trip for "other than a covered reason".
As you stated, travelers should always take time to review the policy terms and conditions. None of the plans on our website offer Cancel for Any Reason at 100 per cent reimbursement. We welcome you to call Customer Care at (800) 487-4722 for assistance when quoting or purchasing a policy.Dec 20,2018

The best part of this plan is we didn't have to use it this time, but it it gave us peace of mind know we would be protected If we needed it In the past we did have a a medical problem and on return home we submitted a claim with receipts and it was handled smooth and promptly

I purchased coverage for my family as we traveled to Vietnam. The cost was reasonable (far less than that offered by my travel agency), and the coverage was comprehensive. Fortunately I did not have to use the insurance, but appreciated the peace of mind that this insurance provided! Will definitely use again for all extended travel!
