We did not have any issues so I have no experience with the claims process. However, the policy provided all the coverage we needed at a competitive price. Communication was quick and efficient.

Fortunately I did not have a claim for this trip but Nationwide has been very good about changes to my trips so felt comfortable using them this time.

This is the first time we have ever bought trip insurance,and the only reason why I did is because we were traveling to San Francisco from Wisconsin to get on a cruise ship. The way the airlines have been having problems I didn’t want to get stranded somewhere and miss the ship and lose out on all that money.So basically it was for piece of mind.We never had to make a claim on it so do not know how that would have worked out it with did.

Didn't need to use it so hard to say how well it worked. But that's a good thing.

Used this for a December cruise. Love the options were given and the ability to add other options as needed. Purchasing is easy and the chat feature is the best.

UPDATE: we were notified (after the start date of the original trip), that the coverage had been transferred to our new date. Still haven’t travelled.
Original Review: Due to Covid our trip was rescheduled we notified insurance a month before departure we called them three times to ensure they were tracking the change, I was told it was in underwriting, have never received any notice that the insurance dates have been changed, just got this request to review our trip that didn’t happen. Can’t even imagine what it would be like if you had to file a claim.

This is really hard to do when you don’t have a claim. If I did have a claim, I would be able to evaluate the policy a little bit better based on what I needed covered.

It met our need for coverage of unexpected medical issues at a very reasonable cost.
