TravelSafe
Classic Plus
I was offered an opportunity to purchase trip insurance when I bought a trip through a travel website to India and Nepal, but it was significantly more expensive than TravelSafe. I declined their insurance and purchased TravelSafe instead after doing some research and checking their reviews. Luckily, I did not need to use my insurance, but it was comforting to know it was there. When I first arrived in India, there was a rough patch when the Visa officials said my paperwork was incorrect and they were not going to let me into India, saying I needed to go back to my own country. I eventually worked that out, but it was comforting to know that I had travel insurance to turn to if needed.

Keep up the good work.
Although I did not need to file a claim for this trip, I have filed a claim with you in the past & was VERY satisfied with the speed of the payment & the compassion of your agents.

Easy to set up the coverage; thankful that things went smoothly and we didn't need to file a claim.

Did not have reason to need a claim. I would consider this again as I did speak to the company representatives prior to leaving and they were helpful and informative.

We were impressed with the ease of filing a claim and the timely response that we received. This was the first time that we had been unfortunate in our travels. We were able to make a call with ease from India to customer service to confirm coverage and assurance that we were covered. The peace of mind allowed us to continue our travels without worrying. Insure My Trip is a fabulous source for travel insurance. I’ve been using them for 20+ years.

Arch RoamRight

We have used Insure My Trip for many, many years and have chosen a variety of Insurance companies over the years. For this January's trip to the Indian Himalayas, we insured with RoamRight.
At an altitude of 13000 feet, one of us got dehydrated, became quite ill and needed to get to lower altitude and to hospital care. This involved changing our flight back to Delhi and, after care in a suburban hospital, flying home to our U.S. hospital. United Airlines refunded our change fee quicklyand easily. RoamRight's website guided me through entering:
* the required information to prove that we did need to evacuate
* the costs involved in changing the domestic (Indian) tickets and
*the value of the tour that we missed by leaving about half way through the tour.
About two or three weeks after they received this information, they reviewed it and without any "fuss and bother", they issued checks that fully covered our loss.
The incident was terrifying, but the interaction with RoamRight was straightforward and totally satisfying.

If you have an elderly parent in bad shape, you should purchase a plan with a "cancel for any reason" clause. My mother went into hospice care the day before I left for India. I talked to the International Medical Group iTravelInsured twice and was told I couldn't cancel because of that. She would have to die before I could cancel and be reimbursed for the trip. She died the day after I arrived in India.
If the average hospice stay is weeks, I can understand the policy of not allowing people to cancel for this reason, but I wish I had known that before I bought insurance.

We had to cancel because his doctors did not want him to fly. The claim was easy to fill out and the customer service representatives were polite and helpful. We had our refunds within a month.

So happy that we didn't need to use it, but we never travel without it when there are non refundable items on the itinerary.
