Previous companies had included luggage tracking ID cards in case of missing luggage which made me feel more secure. John Hancock did not. Because I did not file a claim I don’t know how well they provide service to customers. I basically had no contact with them. Next trip I will go back to my previously used company.

We always purchase travel insurance and we travel international every year, sometimes even 3 times in a year and this recent trip was the First Time I actually wanted to use the benefit. I called the John Hancock office to inquire on canceling my trip due to my mother who is 90-years old had an accident and just had Hip Replacement surgery. My husband and I wanted to cancel the Spain trip and just spend time with my mother to help her in her recovery and therapy - the Insurance Agency said they cannot give a definitive answer if my Claim will be approve or rejected UNTIL I file a Claim and wait 30-days for an answer. I now realize Travel Insurance is a waste of money because people buy Insurance to remove the RISK in your Travels but when you need to use it, you will be asked to take the "RISK" anyway if you will be approved or rejected - so what is the point of having Insurance?

Nice to have the peace of mind that if something were to go wrong, I'd be covered. Thank you!

I had to cancel my trip due to an accident and the plan covered my expenses.
However, the claims administrator for JH, Seven Corners was not a company that I would like to deal with again. Their website and processes are archaic which resulted in many phone calls to follow up. There is zero transparency since you only talk to a customers service rep who knows nothing about the claim. Also, if you are asked for additional information, the SLA timing starts all over upon receiving requested information.
I finally received an email saying that they are sending a check so I'm crossing my fingers that it arrives in the mail.

It's difficult to evaluate the plan coverage and accessibility, since we never had to use it. It gives peace of mind to know/believe that you have adequate insurance coverage.

Thankfully we didn't have any claim, which is always the BEST kind of trip to have.
Thanks for bringing peace of mind.

John Hancock Bronze has the following number one covered reason to cancel or interrupt your trip:
"(a) Your Accidental Injury, Covered Sickness or death or the Accidental Injury, Covered Sickness or death of Your
Traveling Companion, Your Family Member, Your children’s caregiver or Your Business Partner; that results in
medically imposed restrictions as certified by a Physician at the time of loss preventing Your participation or continued
participation in the Covered Trip. A Physician must advise cancellation of the Covered Trip on or before the Scheduled
Departure Date."
The claims administrator is required to adjudicate claims based on the terms and conditions of the policy. Unfortunately, in no event can a claim be predetermined, as you would be required to provide Proof of Loss to determine appropriate coverage. This would be the case for any insurance provider that we represent.
We would be happy to speak with you further about your experience and/or provide any clarification of policy terms and conditions. Please let us know if you have any questions or need further assistance. We can be reached at 800-487-4722.
