Fortunately, I did not have to use the insurance however, I have submitted claims on previous trips over the years. I always use and recommend InsureMyTrip. They are the best!

Happily, didn't need to use the insurance and was glad to know that I had it if things had turned out otherwise!

I would never consider overseas travel without insurance and I like that Insuremytrip.com provides such a wide variety of coverage programs. Just be sure to read the fine print provided by the individual companies.

It took 3 months to get reimbursed. Trip mate personnel are incompetent......they requested further medical info from the VA doctor in Florida. Instead of finding out the correct fax from the MD in Florida, they were faxing requests to the inspector general of the VA in Washington DC! If I had not kept calling Trip Mate over and over, I probably would still be waiting. I will never buy this insurance again!

fortunately I didn't have to use it, but the premium was reasonable for the coverage I needed.

Thankfully, we didn't have to use our trip insurance, so I can't comment on the actual processing of a complaint. But the agent who helped me pick the plan was very knowledgeable, professional, and prompt in addressing my specific needs.

I travel often and have used Insure My Trip numerous times. On my most recent trip I had purchased a policy for specific dates. A week before I was scheduled to leave circumstances caused me to extend those dates. I contacted Insure My Trip and the customer service rep assured me it would not be a problem. The policy was adjusted to accommodate my request without additional cost. An email confirmation was sent to me within hours.

Hard to say if the plan was a good one. Until a person files a claim and sees how their claim is handled any feedback is useless. I gave the plan middle marks not because it's not a good plan, but since i didn't file a claim, I really don't know if it's a good plan or not. Given no negative experience with the plan, I would buy it again as it appears to contain the coverage and terms I felt applied to my particular circumstances.

The plan we purchased was exactly what we needed. Unfortunately, we had to cancel and reschedule. The plan paid the exact amount we documented with no issues. It took a little longer than expected (about three months) but it was an easy process.

Because a family member is in the military and that life is always uncertain, I had to get "cancel for any reason" insurance, which was a little more expensive than the regular type. As it turned out, he didn't get to go so when we returned, I had him fill out all the forms to get a refund. The problem wasn't with the insurance--it was with the people I spoke with at this company. They really weren't very nice, I thought. When I called to check on the status, they said it would take at least a month after they got all the papers. That was ok, but the tone of their voice could have been better. We finally got a refund, which I do appreciate, but this company needs some training on how to talk to their customers.
