Comprehensive plans offer the most benefits, including Trip Cancellation and Trip Interruption. These plans provide the best protection for the investment you have made in your trip.
Agents assisted me a lot when I called and it is VERY MUCH appreciated. I coordinated the Hancock Silver Plan with existing coverage from one of my credit cards. I saved a lot! Thankfully, no claim. Trip was great. Please reward the fine agents who guided me on the phone. Truly professional!

Plan provided peace of mind for our trip. The cruise protection plan with cruise line did not provide adequate medical coverage. I did not get details before purchasing, so next time may just buy one policy with the coverage I need.

Always a toss up whether to get it or not but w travel the way it is gas shortages, lost luggage, family emergency it is better to have peace of mind for cancel for any reason. Good communication w these folks. They gave us all the numbers to call in the event something were to happen which was great. Highly recommend for service and price.

About half way through my trip I became very ill and considered leaving. I recovered enough to continue but the peace of mind the policy gave me was calming.
Thanks

PLEASE BE AWARE. If you need to cancel your trip for an uncovered reason, no matter how far in advance you cancel, the policy, though unused, is completely nonrefundable. We paid over $500 for insurance and had to cancel our trip (for an uncovered reason) 5 months in advance and yet when we contacted customer service were informed no refund of any kind would be considered and the credit policy was worthless because we booked so far in advance. The policy has to be re-used for another trip within a year of the PURCHASE date. Because we booked so far in advance (10 months) there was no way for us to re-use this policy. We should at least be able to re-use this policy within one year of the trip date. Very disappointed. Even the airlines provided a partial refund of our non-refundable tickets (not expected but very much appreciated). Perhaps other company's have a more customer service friendly policy. We will be reading the fine print more closely and purchasing travel insurance closer to our trip date.

When you purchased your Essential policy, Nationwide Mutual did include a 10 Day Review Period:
"All premium is non-refundable after a 10 day review period. In the event the premium paid for coverage is less than the required premium for coverage, benefits will be paid in direct proportion of the actual amount paid to the required premium due."
Since you canceled your trip for an uncovered reason back on 01/10/2019, you were well outside the 10 day review period so there would be no refund of your premium.
However, as we advised you back on 01/10/2019, you could have used this policy for another trip as long and the new trip occurred prior to 08/10/2019 since Nationwide policies require that your departure date must be within 365 days of your original policy purchase date of 08/15/2018.
Please call us at 800-487-4722 if you did schedule a new trip so that we can discuss changing the travel dates on this policy.
Yes your policy was explained when I called. Our trip was scheduled for June 2018 but the policy had to be used by Aug 2018 our purchase date. We're unable to rebook within that timeframe so the credit is wortless. Had we had a year from the trip date (June 2018) it would have value. Hopefully others can benefit from our experience.
