Global Alert!
Preferred Plus
I have in the past used Global Alert many times successfully. Now, I DO NOT recommend them.
I recently took a 4 month trip. I had pneumonia and saw 2 doctors and a hospital, straight illness claim. I filed the claim the day after we returned. (May 3), I was told on May 10th, good to go to process. On May 21st, I called to check on claim, Trip Mate has sold my claim to Broadspire for processing. Trip mate (who legally owns the claim), has no status, the file is closed. Broadspire, is a workers comp processor, does not answer the phone. Leave a message. No Update on my claim. This process started on May 1, 2018, there was no notification, only status update that my claim was closed and no benefits paid.
Who needs this grief, Do not use this company Global Alert, if they are aligned with TripMate. You have no idea what's happening. No idea of claim status. Its been 4 weeks and I have no idea who has the file or when it will be paid.

fortunately we did not need to use the plan, but it gives me comfort having it. I think the cost is worth the coverage we received

Since I had no occasion to use the plan, gratefully, I am not really in a position to respond to the questions.
I can say my choice of coverage I would hope was what was needed if the occasion arise it I can also say from comparison with friends co erase, had I looked further I could have lesser coverage at a lesser rate.

We had no need to use the plan, but for the price, the security of having it was well worth it.

John Hancock
Gold
Our trip was canceled in Nov. 2017 by our travel tour company, who closed their co.
It took us until March 2018, after many phone converrsations, letters, copies of contracts, etc that it was finally agreed we deserved our monies we paid for our trip that was canceled for us, not by us.
Until this time we have used John Hancock numerous times with no problems, and would recommend.

I didn't have to use the insurance so don't know how it would turn out to be had I needed to use it....but it was great because it instantly sent a letter for the embassy for visa application and meets all the specific requirements for Shengen visa. And the price is pretty good too. :)

Fortunately I did not filed a claim, but I am always buying travel insurance from CSA for peace in mind, and it's like superstition for me if I buy insurance everything will be fine, if not something bad may happened.

Global Alert, who is no longer writing new travel insurance policies, is in the process of securing a new underwriter. In the meantime, TripMate who previously handled claims for Global Alert, has transferred all responsibilities to Broadspire. You will be pleased to hear that Broadspire was very amenable to expediting your claim.
Upon receiving your comments, we assigned your claim to Gail who is your Anytime Advocate. Gail contacted Broadspire who assured us that a claims representative would contact you to advise you that she would be processing your claim. If the company has all the documentation, Broadspire should be able to process your payment immediately and send it to management for final review.
In the meantime, we are publishing your review but request that you let us know once you have received your check. You can call Customer Care weekdays from 7:00 AM to midnight ET and weekends from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM ET.
