Travel Insurance Reviews Travelex Travel Basic

Travel Basic is a budget friendly plan offering comprehensive trip cost protection as well as coverage for other unforeseen events that may arise during your trip. Coverages include Trip Cancellation and Interruption, Baggage Loss or Delay, Travel Delays, and Emergency Medical Evacuation. Coverage on this plan is primary, meaning you don't have to submit claims through other insurance first.

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.

    Thank you for taking the time to submit your review. Travelex has responded to your review as follows:

    "We want to thank you for taking the time to voice your concerns and we are sorry to hear about your home being burned in the California wildfires.

    Please keep in mind that insurance is highly regulated.

We have confirmed that both checks were cashed in December 2017.

We felt better having the Travelex Travel Basic insurance, although we luckily did not need to use it.
