I had to extend my trip by one week because of a legal issue, I called and talked to a representative and asked if I could extend the coverage for one more week and pay the difference. I was told I could not , that I would have to by another policy. I was not given an option. I will never buy a another policy from you.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for this unfortunate situation, however changing the effective dates of any travel insurance policy is not possible once your trip has begun. You are always welcome to start a claim to determine if coverage may be available for expenses related to any of the Unforeseen events specified under our Trip Interruption or Trip Delay benefits. Claims may be filed through our BHTP.com website, mobile app, or by email or phone.Jan 23,2019

I am very dissatisfied at this time with IMG. We needed to cancel our December 21 cruise due to a sudden documented diagnosis that prevented us from traveling per my physician. Paperwork was submitted and we still have not heard from the IMG group. I have placed 6 phone calls to them.

Very dissatisfied with this policy. Had to cancel the trip and was told we could roll the policy over. After not hearing from this company..I called to inquire. They said I had to fill out paperwork to submit. I did so and never heard anything back. What a racquet!

I ould not afford a plan that covered anything other than severe acute hospitalizable medical care. Rather, i had four brief hospital stays all of which were below the deductible PER episode. I paid for each event in cash and none of the events were enough over the deductible for each event. First dollar coverage for any medical need was not in m y policy. It is a crap shoot whether to pay the very very high premium expecting to need a hospital or doctor visits, or pray not to get sick UNLESS it is a catastrophic illness. BH never loses in either scenario. It's just business to them.

I purchased your insurance only to find out that I got sick on the last day of the cruise and since I was on USA waters, they wouldn't cover my missed flight due to illness. I have proof from the doctor I needed to see in Los Angeles, he advised me not to fly until I was better, Jetblue wouldn't adhere to me being sick and change my fight to another day.

This is a travel medical plan. It does not cover the cost for canceled flights.Jul 21,2011

My insurance claim was denied because my I moved to a city which was under 250 miles. I thought that clause itself was ridiculous. I mean how can one even expect me to travel 250 miles for a flight. This is the reason I hate insurance. They constantly have these ridiculous hidden clauses. The primary reason I bought this insurance was it was under category 'Cancel for any reason' . And I was denied a claim for cancellation despite having a god enough reason.

Thank you for taking the time to help your fellow travelers by submitting this review.
We understand that it is never pleasant to receive a denial for reimbursement under the Trip Cancellation coverage. However, your reason to cancel your trip must be specifically stated as a covered reason in the policy. Since your iTravelInsured LX plan specifically stated that you would be reimbursed under Trip Cancellation for "...a permanent transfer of employment of 250 miles or more...", your claim was denied after you indicated that your relocation was less than 250 miles of your original employment. Please keep in mind that you would have able to review the list of covered reasons in your plan prior to your purchase by simply clicking on the dollar amount of Trip Cancellation within your quote.
With respect to your policy, the Cancel for Any Reason coverage, a time-sensitive coverage, was only available to you if you purchased your policy within 20 days of your Initial Trip Payment. Since you purchased this policy on 6/13/2016 and your Initial Trip Payment was made on 5/16/2016, unfortunately you were not eligible for that coverage.Sep 20,2016

Claims were slow and paid nothing. Delayed payment from my insurance in the US. Very disappointing.

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are sorry to learn that you are dissatisfied with this plan. You are correct in that the International Medical Group Patriot International is a secondary policy. The majority of travel insurance policies are secondary.
If a travel insurance plan is secondary, the insured person(s) would be required to file a claim with their primary health insurance first. If coverage is denied or only partially provided, the travel insurance would cover the remainder, up to the policy limit.
Please call us at 800-487-4772 if you have any questions pertaining to this policy, or about primary vs secondary coverage. We would be happy to assist you.Aug 10,2017

since the disturbances in Egypt Jan25th - Feb 11th were "domestic disturbances" these events did not allow the travel insurance policy i bought to come into effect and so i feel that the purchase of travel insurance was a total waste of my money - will not do that again from this company

I missed my flight due to unforeseen traffic and when I called to use this coverage, I was told I would have to supply all sorts of proof for my claim such as a formal letter from the cab company. It would have been so much more trouble that I just paid my own expenses.

Unfortunately the documentation provided cannot be used as part of a Schengen visa application, so it ended up being useless to me and I needed to purchase a different insurance product through a travel agency in a haste.

Thank you for letting us know of the problem with the embassy. However, The Tokio Marine HCC Atlas International plan was appropriate for the Schengen Visa but you neglected to eliminate the deductible for an additional premium of 1.10 USD.
Within minutes after you purchased this policy back on July 25, 2018, Tokio Marine would have emailed your policy with instructions on how to view and print your embassy letter. Unfortunately that letter would have shown the 250 USD deductible which would not have been acceptable for the Schengen Visa.Sep 25,2018
