I had to cancel my flights due to the airline changing the schedules and I could no longer make my connections. The claims process went very smoothly and I received my refund in a timely manner.

a little too expensive for domestic travel I thought, and i wasn't sure if "cancel for any reason" was worth it if you still had to notify within 48 hours... i'm not sure why there should be any penalty for notifying even up to the hour of travel, you still don't get back 100% of the cost of trip anyway; isn't it only 75% or so?

Fortunately, I did not need to actually use the benefits available to me. That is the best coverage ever, the one you never need to use. I've used Insure My Trip a few times (every time I travel for pleasure), and I've always been satisfied. This was a different company than I've purchased in the past (C&F Travel Insured Worldwide); however, the coverage that I was looking for existed in only a few policies. Specifically, I'd had a recent hospitalization in the past couple of months, and I wanted the Waiver of Pre-Existing conditions. Most policies don't cover anything in the past 6 months to a year. Not so with this specific policy. As long as you purchase this specific type of policy (Trip Protector Plus) within 21 days of the initial payment on your trip, you get the waiver. The peace of mind was well worth it, as the condition I was hospitalized for is something which can frequently recur. The last thing I wanted to do was be hospitalized in a strange city where my Health Insurance was most decidedly "Out Of Network." The documentation provided by the company was extremely thorough in the policy documents and the description of coverage. Couple that with the procedures on how to file a claim and what number to call if you need help 24 hours a day, I was satisfied we would have been taken care of had we needed to file a claim.

This was expensive insurance, but it was a high cost trip as it was for a month and in the UK. I was injured prior to the trip and unable to travel. There was A LOT of paper work and I would advise you to be sure to keep excellent record keeping in case you have to file a claim. You will also have to wait if you are renting an accommodation like I was, to see if they can re-rent it before you file your claim to determine if you have any credit. Similarly if you have airline tickets and cancel you may only get taxes paid back so you will need documentation of all of that before filing a claim! Just an FYI.
Everyone I spoke to from the start in customer service about filing the claim was very personable and helpful. Once submitted it did take about a week longer than it stated based on the fact that they were " backed up" however once processed I received the full refund within 48hrs of notification. If I hadn't taken out the insurance I would have lost a lot of money so I would highly recommend buying a comprehensive insurance such as this from C & F Travel Insured International , especially if your trip is oversees.

The cancel for any reason rider is NOT for any reason. It does not include any emergencies that may happen in the 48 hours before you leave on your trip. This is ridiculous and idiotic.
I do not recommend this company, nor do I think that travel insurance is a very good investment for many of us who do not book all-inclusive trips.

First of all, no one should review an insurance company unless they've actually filed a claim. What are you reviewing without that, their ability to collect your money? I did file a claim.
I wouldn't buy this insurance again. They had SUCH a hard time with the fact that I used a travel agent on this claim. Add that on to the fact that my husband an I used the same agent on the same purchase, but HAD to purchase 2 different plans from the insurer and this was a total disaster (I am a US citizen, but hubby isn't so we had to have 2 separate plans). They just could not figure out how to untangle the travel agent's stuff since everything said twice the price we were claiming (again, because the travel agent did it on one invoice, but we had 2 travel insurance plans). Also, they won't reimburse us the travel agent's fees at all, which was pretty annoying since had we not used them we would have gotten much more back, but the insurance would have also had to pay more. Totally rigged system. Finally, we were supposed to get 75% of $375 back on each ticket, but only received checks for $280 something. 75% of $375 is definitely $281.25. Not worth calling to get my dolla back, but I will DEFINTELY mention it here. Do your math right! Oh, and I started this claim in February, it's June. We just got the check. Not easy, not user friendly at all. But, we did eventually get (most) of what we were owed.

Although we had no need to file a claim on this trip , we always purchase travel insurance for the peace of mind it provides.

The C&F Travel Insured International Worldwide Trip Protector Plus is a benefit rich policy. In addition to the standard comprehensive policy benefits, this policy also includes Cancel For Any Reason, Interruption For Any Reason, Cancel For Work Reasons, the Pre-Existing Condition Waiver, and Political and Natural Disaster Evacuation.
Cancel for Any Reason gives a traveler the flexibility to change their mind and decide not to travel. No reason would need to be given. However, trip arrangements must be canceled more than 48 hours prior to the departure date. The reimbursement would be 75% of your trip costs.
In the future, if you are looking for guidance in selecting a travel insurance plan, please consider contacting our office at 800-487-4722 where a licensed representative would be happy to assist you.
