It was reassuring while traveling in a foreign country that we would have medical and dental care coverage.

The plan covered what I wanted at reasonable cost. Fortunately we did not have to file any claims.

It took me five months to achieve final resolution of my claims against my policy. The final resolution was satisfactory, but Generali's attention to detail and responsiveness were very poor. Their initial payment on my trip interruption coverage was incorrect; they failed to understand that the total cost of the trip that I provided them was per person, not for the two of us combined, and so the payment was much lower than it should have been. They identified my "claim representative" soon after my initial contact, but several e-mails and phone messages to this person went totally unanswered. When I finally managed to speak to someone who could resolve this issue, it took only moments for me to explain the discrepancy, and for them to acknowledge that I was correct, and that the documentation that I provided had been sufficient and quite clear. For the medical claim, once again, their initial calculation of the payment due me was wrong; they had misread the Explanation of Benefits statement that I provided, reading the amount covered by my primary insurance as being the amount of my out-of-pocket expense. So I had to contact them again. When I finally got to speak to a real person, it took only moments for me to explain their error to them and for them to acknowledge it. After this they corrected the calculation and sent me a check for the correct amount.
No way should I have had to spend this much time trying to contact them about their own errors. And generally, the errors were due to people not carefully reading the information that I provided. And it annoys me no end to leave e-mails and voice-mails and have them go unanswered. In spite of having FINALLY received the proper payments for both trip interruption and medical, I would not use Generali again. My time is worth something too!

I understand that insurance on a trip like my husband and I took was necessary. I'm certainly glad we did not have any problems that would have required us to make a claim. As far as rating your services, I really do not have an opinion good or bad. Just glad the trip was uneventful and we didn't need your services. Thank you very much.

Travel Guard Silver
I was fortunate not to file a claim, but my travel friend did file. I was very impressed with the speed of service and the fact that someone from the travel agency (Valencia Travel) through which we booked our trip was present during the entire process. They followed up the next day and a doctor that spoke English was at our hotel with 30 minutes of calling for services. I could not have been more pleased with what I witnessed in terms of service. I would recommend Travel Guard for my next trip.

Was hospitalized for food poisoning. Had to first file a claim with health insurance to determine was travel insurance would pay. Lots of documentation that I didn't have such as invoice for airline ticket purchased in foreign country. Luckily, when I asked for it through the credit card company and the airline didn't respond, the credit card company treated it as a disputed charge and gave me a credit.
Just make sure that you get every kind of documentation you can when you are there such as hospital records, receipts for cab rides, etc!

It's unfortunate that you came down with food poisoning during your trip, but we trust that the discomfort is gone and your excellent health has returned.
Although no one wants to plan for a claim before it happens, Generali, as well as most of our other providers, have a website for those travelers wishing to file a claim online:
https://www.generalitravelinsurance.com/start-a-claim/how-to.html.
We recommend that you visit the travel insurer's website before you travel and review the claims information provided. Along with including claim forms for you to complete and submit, Generali also provides you with a list other documents that may be needed when submitting a claim. Please just remember that documentation varies depending upon the type of claim you're filing and depending upon the event that resulted in your loss.Sep 28,2018

No problems on my trip so I did not use the insurance. It was good to have just in case.

I didn't have to make a claim. But I hope that if I had the claim process would have gone smoothly.

AXA plans seem reasonably priced in comparison to others on the market, but prices for travel insurance are unreasonably high for seniors across the board.
