My friend who was scheduled to go on my trip with me was unable to go. Fortunately when we booked the trip I insisted she also get InsureAssist coverage.. She did and had to file a claim which I am glad to learn was covered by you without a lot of hassle. It made me feel great

The cost of the plan was comparable to similar plans and included the option to expand the basic coverage. The pre-trip emails reminding me to take my plan information and how to file a claim were very helpful. Thankfully I didn't need to file any claims but I had the peace of mind knowing I would be covered.

System for processing my claim, and personnel assigned to my claim were inflexible and less than fully helpful.
First problem experienced was claims forms were not emailed or USPS mailed to me in timely manner despite AMEX representatives' telling me twice that "they were in the mail". (Established claims in mid May...at the end of May we were still waiting arrival of claim documents. Eventually, I was told their email server does not always communicate with my email server - Comcast. I was not told of this problem when I gave them my email address.) We finally received email with claims forms in early June. I promptly submitted requested documentation to AMEX.
Then the second problem arose...AMEX did not scan all my submitted documents into their system. The scans of at least two important pages were blank in their system. Those pages became major issues to my adjuster and she stopped the adjusting process. No feedback from adjuster to me that there were issues and the process was stopped!! Once I figured out there was a problem, I was told to resubmit the "blank" pages. (Their error results in more work/expense for me!)..
A side irritant was I started receiving confusing communications from AMEX telling me my claims were closed because I did not provide them documentation. This despite the fact that I had weekly communications with their representatives about my claims. Very frustrating.experiences.
Eleven weeks after opening our claims AMEX's adjuster approved about 2/3's of claim and sent me two checks as settlement.
One claim they would not pay was cell phone calls from Copenhagen which were made to cancel reservations, change airline flights, and contact family re their and our plans. Without these calls I would have incurred additional cancellation expenses totaling at least $500 which would have been covered by AMEX. So I spent a small amount on cell phone charges to save them a large amount of money. When I asked why cell phone charges were not covered...I was told those expenses weren't noted in my policy. When I asked where I could go "on line" to see wording of the policy I was told it isn't on-line...they would mail me a copy of the policy. A copy of my policy never arrived. Go figure....!

The travel insurance is expensive relative to competition but it has a very reasonable rental car add on coverage.

Good policy with good price. Gave us the peace of mind we need when traveling given we have parents over 90 years of age.

When traveling internationally, there are so many unknowns and variables. I purchase travel insurance and rest assured that we have a back up plan when things don't go as planned. I love InsureMyTrip.com as it makes the options easy to understand and purchase.

It was hard to judge as (happily) we did not need to use it. I would have liked to be able to add coverage for cancel any time without having to do within such limited time frame of booking my travel.

I was extremely pleased with the service of I Travel Insured. My husband severely injured his knee and had a serious staph infection that required surgery just before our scheduled trip. We had to cancel two days before our departure date.Our travel agent and the insurance company were wonderful. We have received all of our money back within a month. The knee is slowly healing.
