The trip included a
cruise
Travelex Travel Basic
A claim was submitted because there was a trip interruption during the cruise in that a port of call was not fulfilled due to weather, a valid condition. Travelex did not honor the claim basically saying that the cruise itself was not interrupted. However, we would not have incurred this additional expense for this port if it were not originally listed in the itinerary. I thought I had appropriate protection coverage only to find out this was not the case. BUYER BEWARE!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!

    Thank you for providing your feedback on this policy.

    With the Travelex Travel Basic policy, weather-related claims would only be covered if the following had occurred:

    Trip Cancellation / Trip Interruption:
    3. Common Carrier delays resulting from inclement weather, or mechanical breakdown or organized labor strikes that affect public transportation.
    4. arrangements cancelled by an airline, cruise line, motor coach company or tour operator, resulting from inclement weather, mechanical breakdown or organized labor strikes that affect public transportation.

    Missed Cruise Connection Benefit:
    We will reimburse you for Covered Expenses, up to the amount shown in the schedule, should you miss your cruise departure as a result of the cancellation or delay of 3 or more hours of all regularly scheduled airline flights due to inclement weather.

    Although this particular policy would not cover the situation you have experienced, we do have other plans that could, depending on your trip details. When planning your next trip, please feel free to contact us by phone at 1-800-487-4722 to receive a policy recommendation based on your concerns. Our licensed representatives are available 7 days a week and would be more than happy to assist you in finding the right plan for your trip.

We need a cost effective plan that would help out with major expenses, i.e., transportation back to the states. This plan has worked well for us. Provides a feeling of confidence at significantly lower cost than plans provided by the Cruise company or travel agent. Though we have had no claims so cannot provide a review on payments.

We have used Insure My Trip many times with different insurers choose depending on price and coverage. This trip had no adverse events I'm glad to say. On a previous trip, a claim had to be made which went smoothly with Travelex. I cannot say enough good things about Insure My Trip.

We had a 36 hr delay, needed to get a hotel, meals, transportation, and purchase new tickets in order to meet our cruise. It was a lot of paper work and I kept careful track of every receipt. Travelex took care of the complete claim. So glad I had the insurance!

We lost our home in the California wildfires and the many loops they put us through to try and create paperwork we did not still have as it was burnt in the fire was so very distressing to us. There was little to none empathy from the company. They made us feel that we were not being truthful with them. Will never use Travelex again and will be passing the poor service that we received to all our friends and family.
