Unfortunately, we had to cancel our trip because our beloved cat got terribly ill less than a week before we were to leave. Since I cannot find any trip insurance that covers pet illness/emergencies as a covered reason for canceling or interrupting a trip (which I do not understand as pets are family members and they can have emergencies too), I always look for the "cancel for any reason" benefit on policies, and this one also had the "interrupt for any reason" benefit. Luckily we realized we had to cancel in enough time to be covered as I found out that even though we had "cancel for any reason" coverage, if it had been less than two days (I think) before the beginning of our trip we wouldn't have been covered, so check your policy details for this "hole" in coverage time. I believe that there are some gaps in time for "interrupt for any reason," too.
At any rate, when I called C&F they were very responsive, helpful, and pleasant. I was able to email them all of the documents they needed for my claim and I got a nice phone call several weeks later letting me know the claim was approved and the check was on its way. I ended up buying the exact same policy when we re-booked our trip after our kitty passed away since we had a good experience with this company.

We did not need to use or file a claim for this trip. No events that required a claim so I cannot say one way or another. Just peace of mind.

Fortunately, I didn't need to make use of any of the policy benefits, so I have no idea if the policy is worth its cost so it gets a 'C'. The only way I could realistically rate the policy is if sh*% happened I needed to use it - only then could I say if the policy was worth it. In this case, I tossed about $300 for a 'what if' that didn't happen. I only get travel insurance when there are enough non refundable prepaid items that the amount exceeds my willingness to self insure.

I had to cancel my trip at the last minute. I had "cancel for any reason" coverage and my claim was promptly quickly and easily.

The process to purchase was easy. I also found the reminder emails and the accessibility of the policy to be comforting and a demonstration of good customer service. I cannot comment on the claim process as we did not need to file one, but overall I found the purchase and customer service side to be good.

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.

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.
