Overall the process is simple to navigate, but slow due to the excusive email approach. There should be a phone number easily accessible to provide a more person service.

I have never purchased trip insurance, but since I have some health issues so decided to buy it. It was a comfort to know I would have help should I need it. Thank you.

Price is just too high for two seniors trying to enjoy retirement. Please consider lowering prices for us.

I did not have to file a claim; however, it gave me and my family peace of mind when I traveled to Cancun alone to get some dental work done. I will purchase it again for my second visit to Cancun in December to complete my dental work.

Seemed to give us the coverage needed. Peace of mind knowing we had insurance for unexpected incidents.

Purchased land arrangements then 12 days later purchased airfare. Understood financial default covered if purchase within 10 days of initial purchase and within 10 days of any additional arrangements purchased, so figured whole trip cost covered. After all, couldn't purchase for full amount until after got air fare to get there. Land supplier defaulted & stole our money. Filed claim. Twice they said they hadn't received my claim documents. Third time they decided I should have purchased within 10 day sof land arrangements, then somehow amended my purchase to add the airfare after I purchased it, & so denied default claim for land arrangements. Policy language certainly misleading, & I've been a lawyer for 42 years so if I didn't understand it...how could a non-lawyer? I won't purchase a Nationwide policy ever again.

Customer service told me I needed a medical letter stating certain items. When I went to file the claim, there was a specific medical form that needed to be filled out. So the person had to go back to the doctor for that. The expected time to even have the claim looked at was 30 days. I called after two weeks to make sure all was rolling along. She said that she couldn't escalate it until 30 days had passed. Then 5 days later the check for the entire amount of the trip that was cancelled showed up! So a view glitches but getting full recovery of trip payment was the goal. Accomplished!
