I purchased the plan after comparing many others online. I liked the coverage and cost and will use Global Alert again.

I was very pleased with the complete coverage we had and very glad also I didn't have to utilize any of it. Would not hesitate to use this coverage again when the need arises.

Fortunately we didn't need any of the services (claim, etc.) but it looked like global covered all we might need.

The Global Alert! Preferred plan provided the coverage I wanted for trip cancellation and medical evacuation. I shopped around, and found this policy to be the best value for money, which in my opinion is more important than a simple price comparison. Fortunately, I did not have to file a claim, but the policy documents made it very clear what to do in the event of a claim or need for assistance while traveling, so I felt very confident that I was in good hands while traveling abroad.

There is no way to accurately gauge a plan unless and until you actually need to use it. This plan APPEARED, through its coverage documents, to have covered everything, but, thankfully, we didn't need to find out how well the plan really performed.
Do we have "buyers' remorse" for purchasing it? NO. Would we purchase it again? YES. Can we accurately comment on how well the plan covered us (or would have covered us) in the event that we had actually had to file a claim? NO. So, completing this survey is actually pretty pointless.

I bought the plan due to having a sick relative. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bought it, because I think the price is too high for the temporary coverage which is provided. The best result was that I didn't have to use it.

    Thank you very much for your reply.

    Comprehensive plan premiums are based on the age of the travelers, trip cost and length of trip. Although you purchased an excellent plan, you may wish to call us for your next trip since there may be plans that are more competitively priced.

    Customer Care is available weekdays from 7:00 AM to midnight EST and weekends from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM.
