We luckily didn't have to use the plan, so hard to judge the value. However, although very pricey, we were glad we had this in our back pocket in case we needed it.

AXA Assistance USA Silver
I have no idea if they would have provided good coverage had I needed it, since I did not have to make a claim. I know they turned down my claim I had on the last trip prior to this. Fortunately, my trip this time went without any snags.

Global Alert! Preferred
Global Alert is administered by Trip Mate, Inc. which is underwritten by American Modern Home Insurance Company.
We had to cancel our trip due to an injury. Fortunately, we had purchased trip cancelation insurance and had all the medical documentation required to file a claim. However, dealing with Trip Mate was a very frustrating experience. It was hard to contact them, and the claim forms - only available on line- were confusing and could not be completed on line.
We submitted all required paper work by mail, which Trip Mate received on February 9, 2017. After numerous phone calls, being put on hold for almost 20 minutes on several occasions only to be told to leave a call back number (which was not always returned), and two letters, we finally got a check on April 14, 2017. Yes, in the end, Trip Mate/ American Modern Home Insurance Company did cover the expenses incurred when we had to cancel our trip ,which we appreciated. However, it is doubtful that we would have ever purchased this insurance from Insure My Trip if we knew that we would not be dealing directly with an insurance company-Global Alert!- but instead an on-line company like Trip Mate, Inc.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry that you were dissatisfied with your claim experience. We are pleased that you ultimately received reimbursement of your loss. We do want you and your fellow customers to be aware that InsureMyTrip offers a Customer Advocate Program.

    Customer Advocates are representatives assigned to assist customers who experience issues after filing a claim. Requesting a Customer Advocate is as simple as calling 800-487-4722 or emailing [email protected], explaining the events which resulted in a claim, and the challenges you are facing.

Great service.
Perhaps a call from you at some point would instill more confidence since all of this was done on line.
Otherwise, all is good.

We did not need to file a claim. While the policy is quite expensive, the main reason to buy it was for our peace of mind.
