Although we did not have to make a claim, it was great knowing that we were covered if we needed to make a claim. We have already recommended the Silver Plan to two other couples. Thank you AXA.

This trip had to be cancelled for medical reasons. A refund of the forfIeted deposit was requested from AXA on Oct.10. We were told we would hear back in 30 days. I called AXA after 40 days to check the status and a couple of days later I was told they needed more information. I provided the additional information and was told by an AXA representative it was sufficient. When I called back in a couple of weeks, I was told that still more information was needed. I provided this but did not receive a confirmation of receipt. When I called they told me they had no record of my claim. I sent the same info a second time but still no confirmation. So I called yet again and within the week I had 2 confirmations of receipts. Then miracle of miracles I received a letter that my refund had been approved. Two weeks later, I got two checks in the mail - one for each traveler although they are made out to the same person. But, the names aren’t the problem it’s the amount. The checks were for $300 less than we had been approved. I just got off the phone and they said it was a typo and they will attempt to expedite the new check. What should have been a simple refund process has been a major headache.
Although our flights were also insured, I decided to handle those myself. I had a dull refund within 4 days.

I don't know how good it is because, thank goodness, I didn't have to use it! I do think I would have been happier if I had been notified before purchase what system or company the insurance company had contracted with in Morocco and where in the country I could expect to find assistance.

Total failure by insuremytrip. My mother passed away four days before our trip. I was led to believe by the person I called I have full coverage to change the airline tickets. Since we bought tickets so early, and now having to change a flight from New York to Italy within a week the increased costs were over $4800, but again they said we are covered. So we scheduled my moms funeral promptly an delayed our departure by two days. Heart broken and sad over the loss of my mother we left for our trip at least feeling better believing the almost $5000 would be covered. I made all the proper notifications and filed a claim. They DENIED the claim and sent us a check for $200! They claimed the delay was not covered beyond $200. I appealed it only to be denied again...they said they would have reimbursed all of our money if we canceled, but since we were able to salvage our trip we are out over $4600 in additional costs! They have no heart and could care less about the customer...they promptly took our money but in true insurance company fashion denied our claim. It makes no sense canceling if you can delay....or at least so we thought. I would NOT buy insurance from this company!

Thank you for your feedback on the policy. We are very sorry for your loss and to hear that your claim was denied after your appeal.
The AXA Assistance USA Gold plan is a Comprehensive plan which covers a wide range of perils and hazards for Trip Cancellation. Unfortunately, it was determined that the claim did not fall within the scope of Trip Cancellation because you would have had to cancel the trip with your Travel Suppliers to be covered under that benefit.
Please consider calling us in the future prior to purchase so we can review the plan benefits with you and answer any questions you may have about coverage. We do want you and your fellow customers to be aware that InsureMyTrip offers a Customer Advocate Program. Customer Advocates are representatives assigned to assist customers who experience issues after filing a claim. Requesting a Customer Advocate is as simple as calling 800-487-4722 or emailing [email protected], explaining the events which resulted in a claim, and the challenges you are facing.Jan 25,2018

The first best thing about the plan is the wonderful help the representatives on the phone give in finding the right plan with the right coverage.
The next best thing about the plan is not having to use it!

I am very happy with the plan and the cost. Although I (forunately) did not need to file any claims this trip, I did file a claim last trip for lost luggage. After submitting receipts and documentation, my claim was paid quickly and the staff was polite and helpful through the process. I will definitely use the plan for future trips.

My only thought was that I was over insured. The tour I was on had some coverage, but not cancellation insurance. So I felt I was paying double for similar coverage. However your price was the best I could find. I can't speak for your abilities in covering all these things as my trip was went off without a hitch.

I did not need to file any claims so I cannot comment on that portion. However, I was pleased with the level of information provided and it covered everything I needed.
