I have been a customer of insuremytrip.com for more than a decade, they compare different rates with different insurance providers. I have mostly purchased insurance from Travelex through insuremytrip.com, here they act as a broker on behalf of different insurance providers. As a worldwide traveler I find that travel insurance is helpful when you travel internationally. Most of the time when I file a claim it is for medical assistance. Depending on where you go, the medical costs may be far less than here in the US. Unless you are seriously injured or ill and require hospitalization, it might be easier not to file a claim, especially in places where medical costs are extremely nominal even without local insurance. Unless you are admitted to the hospital you must pay out of pocket then file a claim for reimbursement. I have found this process oftentimes very cumbersome, as you have to fill out multiple pages of forms to submit a claim and be successfully reimbursed. At the same time, I do recommend those international travelers to definitely have the insurance, because in addition to medical assistance, it also helps with flight delay and loss of luggage etc. Review the Terms & Conditions carefully, as they may not cover storms that have already been announced or other exclusions. The insurance Only covers unforeseeable problems.

We submitted a straightforward Trip Delay claim, fully documented, and received the full amount we requested, as indeed we should have, but what we found outstanding about this situation was the speed with which AXA processed our claim, all within just a bit over a month.

I thought the plan was good but when I found out that I paid almost $90 for a 10 day trip and my bag got lost on the way back, I called and they told me that delayed baggage coverage was only for the way there which I obviously didn't know before. The customer service rep for AXA wasn't very friendly about it either. Luckily my bag turned up and I didn't need to make a claim. But I already paid for another policy for AXA for my next trip in October (previously paid for) so I probably won't use that company next year when I travel or I will read the fine print and pay less!

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to learn your bags, but are glad to learn they did arrive back to you. We do suggest reviewing the policy certificate, before and after you purchase a policy, to ensure you know what your policy does and does not cover. There are plans available that do offer baggage coverage to and from your destination, but as you know not all do. If you would like assistance with a quote, please feel free to call us a 800-487-4722 and a licensed representative can assist you.Jun 26,2019

This was the best policy we could find for the price. It was generous in its coverage, and we felt secure traveling knowing that we had it.

Since I had canceled my trip for 2019, and rescheduled it for 2020 I didn’t use the insurance that I had purchased. There was a ton of red tape In order to change the dates from 2019 to the 2020 trip. It would have been easier to get congress to actually do something, than to change the dates on the policy. Basically I ended up wasting the cost of the policy, and will just get another one for the 2020 trip.

Thank you for your review. Insurance providers do allow travelers to transfer their policies from one trip to another. By transferring the policy to a future trip it allows customers to not lose the premium paid for the original policy, but it does require certain documentation to be submitted. Upon notice of the transfer request, an email is sent to the customer with the documentation requirements before the request is sent to the provider for processing. Please call us at 800-487-4722 if you need any assistance with making a change to your policy, we would be happy to assist you.Mar 25,2019
