After we submitted our claim, with all required documentation, we waited 13 weeks before receiving our checks. Staff at the company handling our claim said that they had a backlog due to a large volume of hurricane-related claims. That may be true, but they should have put on more staff, or taken some other action to increase their claim processing capacity.

Global Alert treated us fairly. My only criticism is that it took 3 months to settle the claim.

Its hard to write a review for a policy you never needed to use however it did provide a piece of mind.

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

It took almost 3 months from the date that my small medical claim (under $200) was filed with Global Alert with all requested attachments. I called several times and kept getting told that it is a busy time for claims, and that they "appreciate my patience". They said that they are processing claims in the order that they were received, and that my claim was still in the queue. Even when they said that they would try to expedite the claim, nothing happened.
I finally contacted insuremytrip.com about my claim. I was immediately assigned a Customer Advocate by insuremytrip. She talked with Global Alert/TripMate on my behalf, and I have finally received my check from them. It took 2 weeks from when I contacted insuremytrip until I received the check.
I am glad that I purchased the insurance through insuremytrip, since they advocate for you in case of a problem.
I have recently purchased insurance for another trip through insuremytrip - but not through Global Alert/TripMate.

It is always comforting to know that you have the coverage you need. It is even better when you do not have to file a claim.

The website was useless; never had a record of my claim. Also took a long time to process. BUT we did get full reimbursement for our losses.

Fortunately I have not had to make a claim! I have used Insure my trip many times. I love to deal them. With their knowledge I feel tat I have all the coverage I need to travel and not worry about a thing. I feel that I am taken care of. I have peace of mind in knowing that I have the necessary insurance to cover whatever comes up. I can travel, relax and enjoy!!!

Still waiting on the check. It is supposed to be on the way??
Check finally came! Took almost 3 months for a very simple claim.
