The coverage was great. I didn't use the plan for my trip but was comfortable knowing it was there.

My cell phone was stolen while changing trains in Naples Italy. We reported this to the ticket office and filled out a report but did not have time to get a copy. When I filed a claim for it, AXA wanted a police report which, being back in the states, could not be obtained. I showed them emails suspending my service with Verizon and having Samsung disable my phone. You can not talk to an adjuster just someone in customer service and they can only read your file to you. I paid over $600 for the insurance and was only asking to be reimbursed $175. BAD, BAD!!!

    We are sorry to learn of the unfortunate instance that occurred during your trip.

    We have received the following response from AXA Assistance USA:

    "We appreciate the feedback you have provided. We are sorry to learn you weren’t completely satisfied with your purchase. Unfortunately, when filing a claim for stolen personal effects, a police report is required as stated in the benefit description of your policy. In the future, you may call us during your trip so we may assist you in clarifying policy benefits and with the claims process prior to incurring additional costs. We sincerely hope you will consider us again for future travels."

    This is an industry standard procedure regarding stolen personal property with travel insurance.

Unfortunately our trip had to be cancelled due to medical reasons. Provided all necessary paperwork to AXA by registered mail and followed up with phone call to confirm that all documentation required had been received. Their claims department stated that we would hear in approximately 30 days. When that date had passed and we had not heard we called them. At that point AXA informed us that the actual claim form had not been included in the package! There were several phone calls between ourselves and AXA over a period of 2 days, after which we received an e-mail stating our claim had been processed and approved in full. Apart from those final 2 days we received a good response from the company.

I purchase a plan every year for our vacation through insuremytrip, but never leave a review, since you can only rate a company IF something goes wrong. Well, this year it did, and I must say that I was extremely happy with AXA and the service they provided. They contacted me overseas as soon as they found out I was ill, and started the paperwork to arrange direct payment to the hospital where I was. Unfortunately, since it was the weekend, and with the time difference, their approval did not arrive before I left the hospital on a Sunday afternoon, so I had to pay for the charges with my credit card. I filed my claim upon my return, and I did make sure it was complete with copies of all receipts and medical information. I received my payment in full within 2 weeks, well ahead of their 30 day window. I guess I was glad I got a "gold" plan where the plan is the primary payer for medical bills, and not secondary, or I would have had to wait to file a claim with my own insurance company...and they are slower than molasses on a winter's day. Also, some of the AXA reps, such as Victoria, were terrific, and gave excellent service, even while I was stuck in an overseas hospital. All in all, they came through when I needed them, and that is the true measure of any plan to purchase (ALL companies take your premiums with no problems, but will they pay when you have an issue???). I have always purchased through insuremytrip, but now I will also ensure that I always purchase an AXA gold plan, because of the excellent processing of my claim. I recommend them wholeheartedly.

Received an email about 10 days prior to our departure reminding us of our policy coverage, other things to remember,
Reminding us to bring a copy of the policy as I recall-- it was a helpful reminder-- I've never gotten an email like that before from s travel insurance company-- very thoughtful and a great idea!!
Thank you-/ I'll use your products again!
