We notified IMG immediately and then filed our claim promptly, a month after our trip was cancelled because of my mom's death. Three weeks after filing all documents requested, through their secure portal, I called and was told they had never received any documents. A week after I sent them a copy of the receipt confirm they had sent me when I filed, they "found" the documents. Another three week pause before they requested additional info that they had not initially asked for. Another three weeks (always with me needing to initiate the follow up) and they said the claim from a hotel was not valid because they did not charge me until we had cancelled (which their website, which I had sent a link to, clearly stated was how they would handle charges and cancellations). Another three weeks and they said that even though I had provided proof that our train ticket was non-cancellable / non-refundable, I needed to prove that I had cancelled it and did not get a credit. It was not until I wrote a letter stating that I no longer felt that I was being dealt with in good faith, that three plus months after I submitted our claims, and lots of hassle, they paid the claim. This has caused me to seriously question whether trip insurance is really worth what it costs when you factor in all the work and hassle to file a claim. P.S. If a company is always experiencing "heavier than usual call volumes" is it really heavier than usual?

The plan I chose was, IMHO, very expensive. Like all insurance, you pay for those who do not take care of themselves! However, you have to travel with it, or you are playing Russian roulette.

I did not get any satisfactory results to my claim. Agents request over and over again documents and proof of documentation without any accomplishments. If we buy an insurance is to have a piece of mind to feel protected not to get more agony when the problem arises.

I insured my trip through International Medical Group, iTravelInsured.
We were going to be gone for a very long time and since one can not insure just part of the trip there were few companies that would take on the long vacation; iTravelInsured however would and did. I contracted COViD and consequently had to make a large claim since we missed a lot, lying in a hotel room trying to get better. In settling my claim they treated me very fairly; my settlement was larger than I expected due to benefits like 'travel delay' and 'trip interruption'.
Timeliness.... But from the time I submitted my claim to the day I received my check it was one day short of five months. Toward the end of that period I was questioning wether or not they were really going to issue me a check; I was starting to loose sleep, waking up thinking about what to do next. Consequently, have your eyes open if you go with IMG iTravelInsured, their good qualities outlined at the start of this review were drowned by the tartiness of the settlement process and final payment.

Luckily my husband and I ended up never using our plan, but it was wonderful peace of mind. Especially when my husband caught some kind of chest cold and was the sickest he has ever been in his life. After a day or two of bed rest he was feeling 100%, but it was great peace of mind when we thought he was going to have to have a hospital visit in a foreign country.

We didn't need to use it, but we thought we would. Our call went right through from overseas and information was prompt and reassuring

We purchased the insurance for my husband and myself on the day we booked our flights. The next morning, I called to ask about a specific coverage and was told to email my question to the customer claims. I got an immediate response that an answer could take 21 days. It has now been 35 days since I emailed claims and have received no response. We took the trip and didn't need to put in a claim-----however, if they don't answer a simple question I can only imagine how long it would take for them to pay a claim. Won't use this company again.

This was the first time I purchase travel insurance. Even though everything went well and I didn't need to use the insurance, I will still purchase it again.
