Nationwide Mutual Insurance Prime
I originally booked a cruise for our 21st wedding anniversary; however, sadly my brother passed away a week before our trip. Thankfully, I had travel insurance with 'Nationwide." I contacted "Insure my Trip first". They answered the phone in less than 5minutes. The representative gave me the contact information for "Nationwide insurance". I uploaded the documents they requested and they responded and honored my claim 100% within 3 weeks.

I am so thankful I chose Nationwide to insure us, this was the first time that I used them. In the past I used a different insurance company, C & F travel, for several years and never filed a claim; however , upon looking at their current reviews I noticed this time around they had several bad reviews on not honoring their claims so I decided to go with Nationwide. Nationwide took care of me and my family when we needed them most.
I will continue to used them for my travel insurance needs!

I had to cancel our trip due to a serious medical condition. It took probably two months for the claim to be processed and paid out. It was a lengthy process but they did pay out the full amount, so I think it was fair.

Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
I wouldn't buy Nationwide Travel Insurance again. Terrible customer service, almost no communication with me, you are in the dark when you submit a claim. Took 4 days, 2 emails, and a phone call to figure out how to submit a claim--they apparently want to make it as hard a possible. And they need every documentation under the sun for your claim submission, so SAVE EVERY piece of paperwork, boarding passes, itinerary and receipts. After submitting the claim I never heard from them until I received a check 7 weeks later. We had a major trip delay and discovered after the fact that our Trip Delay Coverage doesn't actually cover trip delays--just expenses occurred during a trip delay. I'll read the fine print before buying any insurance next time.

We were on a cruise with a tight schedule and limited access to internet. We had a flight delay that caused us to miss a prepaid tour which would have been a covered loss under our policy. However, the policy required that we make a written claim within 7 days of the claimed loss. We missed that deadline.

It's my own fault for not reading and understanding the requirements. However, I believe that this requirement is completely unreasonable -- especially for a TRAVEL policy.

Buyer beware!

While I didn’t need to use the insurance it was great knowing we had it … just in case. I was very pleasantly surprised at the cost for all that was covered. I’ll be purchasing again in July for another trip!
