Travelex Travel Basic
For the young adult members of our family is was an excellent deal, but naturally the costs increase by age, so that as the grandma of the gang I was paying the most. While I understand that we oldsters are expensive in that we may be more likely to fall or get sick, but I would like to see some actuary scales that take into account the variability of people over 80.

Travelex Travel Basic
We had a pet emergency the night before we were to leave and had to postpone our trip for 3 days. It cost a lot to reschedule the flight and we lost the full amount of our first 3 night booking so the insurance, without coverage for pets, didn't help us at all.

    Dear Paul;

    We want to thank you for taking the time to put your concerns in writing, and we are sorry for your frustration.

    The InsureMyTrip.com website allows you to compare the benefits, coverages, and exclusions of the insurance plans offered. The protection plan’s Description of Coverage is available on the InsureMyTrip.com website to view prior to purchasing. It was also emailed to you, along with the Confirmation of Coverage, at the time of purchase on May 8, 2017 at 2:38pm.

    Please keep in mind, that the Travel Basic protection plan that was purchased is a Named Peril Policy meaning the policy outlines the coverage included and if the reason for trip cancellation or trip interruption is not listed, coverage does not apply. The 13 different reasons listed for Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption can be found on pages 11 & 12 of the Description of Coverage. Unfortunately, pet emergencies are not an eligible reason for trip interruption benefits.

    We empathize with your unfortunate situation; however, we trust that you understand that based on the terms and conditions of the protection plan purchased.

    Kind Regards

I love having the assurance when we are traveling that if something does go wrong we have the Travelex Travel Basic policy to help us with whatever the situation may be. We hope to never use your policy but love knowing it is there for us if we do need it.
