John Hancock Silver
I've always bought travel insurance, often from John Hancock, but this is the first time I've had a claim. I had emergency surgery 4 days before departure and had to scrap a monthlong trip. Fortunately, I keep very good records so I was able to provide good documentation for the claim. It was handled very fairly and timely, in my opinion. I filed the claim on March 1, provided chunks of documentation on March 12 and March 27, and received my final check on April 8 - I think that's amazing! My only complaint is that I wish there had been some kind of process tracker so that you'd know where they were in processing the claim - like Domino's lets you know whether they're preparing, baking, finished, etc. :) Other than that, I have no complaints and will be buying John Hancock from here on out.

Agents assisted me a lot when I called and it is VERY MUCH appreciated. I coordinated the Hancock Silver Plan with existing coverage from one of my credit cards. I saved a lot! Thankfully, no claim. Trip was great. Please reward the fine agents who guided me on the phone. Truly professional!

My husband was admitted to hospital a day after we landed in London, on second day of our trip . We had already checked in for the next flight. It wasn't easy to find how to infirm you but I did so by email.

It was nearly impossible to figure out how to actually file a claim. But I persisted, and it has now been paid.

Claim was all by email and attached files. Eventually a check came for cruise part with some asterisks stating a letter would be sent about the medical part. No letter ever arrived! Eventually i sent another email and the claim was processed.

I was reimbursed promptly for an emergency room visit and treatment in Austria. It is a simple process if you submit the correct documentation.

The email correspondence from John Hancock Insurance following the purchase was terrific. In addition, two or three days prior to our trip, we received a reminder email with a plan summary, and important numbers to call if necessary. Good work! The responsiveness from John Hancock provided us with a secure feeling in the event we needed to make a claim.

Did not have to use the plan, therefore I cannot judge if I would have been satisfied with the plan.

The customer service at John Hancock Insurance was the worst I've experienced in over 20 years. While their office took information for a call back (twice) they never returned my calls. It took 3 days to reach an agent to ask questions about their policy and the agent was unwilling or unable to address my questions on the policy. After requesting to speak to a supervisor I was placed into a voicemail box and again no return call.

Fortunately, I was within the 10-day review period so was able to cancel the JH policy. I purchased a policy from April who provided exceptional customer service when I contacted them with the same questions regarding their Choice policy.

I highly recommend you check out policies offered by April vs. JH; April offers similar coverage (same underwriter as JH), are cost competitive, and April provides excellent customer service.
