Fortunately I didn't need to file a claim so I'm only rating the plan coverage and price compared to other company's plans.

Was disappointed that I could not get a plan specifically for the trip portion since I already had the medical evacuation portion of the trip covered. And, that is the reason why I rated the plan as I did.

My wife had health issues and so had to cancel her part of the trip, though I continued. I filed a claim for $1400 with all required information at the end of May. Upon returning home, after nearly 2 months of inaction and only cryptic notes given in the online claim status report, I called customer service at TravelClaimsOnline.
The representative could not explain the delay, especially during 3 weeks of June when no status entries were made. She also pointed out that for some unknown reason, the claim number was changed without informing me, so I could not know any of the latest status updates anyway.
It is now the end of July and the claim status report of the new number on the day after I called said, "final payment printed". The check finally arrived two months after filing the claim and much confusion.
I made a claim to another travel insurance company for a separate trip that I had to cancel due to my wife's health issue. It was also obtained through InsureMyTrip. The claim was processed in 2 weeks. I will use this company again!

Hard to review when I have not yet had to file a claim but I chose the plan for the medical coverage.

Thank goodness I did not need to file a claim. So, I am not sure how well the coverage would actually have worked.

It was great to be able to choose just what is needed rather than a policy that covers area already covered by our existing insurance.

I did not have to make any claims so it is difficult to determine how this insurance would have come through for me, but the plan suited my needs.

I did not get to use the coverage, however, I was very satisfied with the coverage and pricing especially regarding recreational scuba diving. Contacting them by phone was also very easy and friendly as well as professional to clarify coverage for recreational diving. As mentioned I did not have a claim so I can not comment on how well a claim might be handled.

Since I didn't need to use the insurance, I have no feedback to provide. It was definitely expensive but was a requirement for the trip I went on.
