Global Alert!

We filed a claim when my husband took ill while we were on vacation in South Africa. TripMate, the insurance company behind Global Alert, took a very long time to process our claim after we returned home and filed the claim. Additionally, TripMate told us the medical coverage was secondary to our health insurance when that was not the case; TripMate should have paid the hospital directly, which they did not, so we had to pay out of pocket and then recover the hospital and medical expenses. We have finally received full payment for the claim but that happened only after the folks at InsureMyTrip got involved. The Customer Care department of InsureMyTrip is wonderful and they contacted TripMate on our behalf until the claim was finally paid. If you have a problem with any policy sold by InsureMyTrip, they will stand behind it! To summarize - I do not recommend TripMate or Global Alert insurance based on our experience but I definitely do recommend InsureMyTrip.

I felt the John Hancock name was the best fit for me. I was confident if I needed to cancel my trip, they would honor the contract. I will definitely use them again for any upcoming trips.

The coverage was good and there was a waiver for pre-existing conditions, which I felt was of great value.

Never used the plan, so am unable to comment., It was disappointing to learn that my granddaughter and I were not covered for injury due to civilian unnrest/rioting in another country, Your policy states; If within 30 days of Your departure, a politically motivated Terrorist Attack occurs within the territorial limits of a City listed on Your itinerary. The Terrorist Attack must occur after the Effective Date of Your Trip Cancellation coverage.“Terrorist Attack†means an incident deemed an act of terrorism by the U.S. Government.
Otherwise, the policy the policy excludes:
War, invasion, acts of foreign enemies, hostilities between nations (whether declared or not), civil war.

Thank you for providing feedback. Unfortunately, comprehensive travel insurance policies exclude war, acts of war, civil unrest, insurrection and similar events for all types of coverage. Those plans that cover Terrorism are eluding to Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption coverage, not for Medical Coverage.Feb 19,2016
We are pleased to learn that your claim has been paid. Thank you for allowing InsureMyTrip to advocate on your behalf and assist you in getting your claim resolved. We apologize on behalf of the claims administrator for the lengthy claims process and confusion over whether the medical coverage is primary or secondary. In general, the medical expense benefit provided on comprehensive travel insurance plans is in excess of your primary health insurance.
