Global Alert! Preferred
I have never needed to get insurance before but when confronted with taking my granddaughter to Hawaii for a week she needed insurance and I found it less of a problem getting it than I thought. In fact I was blown away at how easy the process was and how affordable it was. Thanks again to insuremytrip and Global Alert.

Satisfied, yes. But one only knows satisfaction if there is need to actually use the policy and find it did indeed cover as promised.
Happily, I did not have that need so will continue merely to trust in insuremytrip, as I always do.

Global Alert! Preferred Plus
I had a medical problem which prevented me from going on my vacation. When I called Global to cancel my plan I was told I had to cancel within two weeks of my signing up. I called over a month before my trip and was shocked by the refusal to cancel my trip insurance since I was not going on my trip and would not file a claim. This is bad customer relations and I will find another trip insurer in the future.
John A. would not recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

Though fortunately I didn't need to file a claim, I valued the peace of mind having the plan. And the price I paid on the phone with the very courteous young lady was lower than the online quoted price.
