Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential
Another cruise in the books with full peace of mind that we had our travel insurance, just in case! Thank goodness we did not need it. But, I read a story where a passenger had a heart attack and was stuck in a Dominican Republic hospital with no funds to return to the States because they did not get insurance.

We always use insuremytrip to find a policy that fits our needs based on where we are going.

I usually don't write reviews but had to write one this time. We had purchased the Nationwide Prime policy for our cruise at the end of April 2023. While on our cruise, I had to visit the medical center on board the ship. Once I returned home, I submitted my claim form with all the required documents via their electronic portal. I received an email 13 days later saying my claim was approved for the full amount and that a check had already been mailed. My claim was processed and paid in two weeks!! Outstanding service!! We are using Nationwide travel insurance again for our next vacation.

I had to cancel my cruise due to my mom's death about a week prior to cruise. I submitted my claim online-took about 4 weeks for claim to be completely processed and about another 2 weeks to receive checks.
I did have to get help from my daughter to help me file the claim,but I am not computer savy.
I only received one email from the company during the whole process,and that was a few days after I submitted claim-they were just letting me know there might be a delay due to the high number of claims.
I just checked the website frequently and that is now I knew the claim had been approved and checks were generated.
I did receive my total amount I had paid for the cruise and was never asked for any additional paperwork-But I did wait until I had everything( MD note/death certificate ,etc) before I submitted claim.They have a list of items they show you when you start the process
I would definitely use again,actually I just bought the same policy for my next cruise

What can I say. This company is great. I had to place a claim due to my wife losing her job just 3 months before our cruise was to take place. All the representative were very friendly and knowledgeable. I received all the information needed (via email) to file a claim within minutes of completing my call.

After all the information required by Nationwide was received by them my claim was processed and paid in full to me within their normal process time required.

I have used them in the past and continue to use them today for all my travel needs.

You never know about any insurance plan until you have to use it. We did. We had to cancel a cruise due to an unexpected medical event. I put the claim in and it was paid out in full. So, what's the problem? We knew *nothing* about the status of the claim until the check(s) arrived in the post! In this age of fast communications, something as simple as an email to let us know what was going on would have been sufficient.

This review should be titled "You know how to write the insurance, you just don't know how to service it". During a recent cruise my wife required some non-emergency medical attention. when I returned from the trip three days ago I attempted to call this company to notify them of this claim. They tell you via a recorded message , that due to extremely high volume, you should either mail or email information to them or use their website. I emailed them 3 days ago and have not heard anything since. I attempted to use their website, filling in all required information in an attempt to obtain a claims form, but after doing that received a message that "this form is not available for download". Another call to their toll free number told me to press one in order to obtain a claims form, but that resulted in me being disconnected. So this company was extremely efficient at accepting my premium dollars, but when it comes to speaking to someone regarding actually submitting a claim, they are not to be found. I'll try to follow this up at a later date to update on any progress, but so far, count me as a very dissatisfied customer. Should someone contact me and pay this claim, I'll be glad to adjust my ratings.
Revised 4/03/2023. I was finally able to obtain the form to submit the claim. I sent them all of the documentation that they asked for. It took about one week until I received an acknowledgment that the claim had been received. After that, it took approximately three more weeks until I received the check for the full amount of my claim without any quibbling . So, aside from the initial delay in communication, they have handled this claim satisfactorily and I would now recommend this plan.

My wife got injured two weeks before our scheduled cruise. I submitted all the paperwork and documents as requested online. Never had to talk to a person. We received the refund checks 3 weeks after submittal and got everything we asked for since we had the documentation. Thanks to Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company for the very quick response and positive outcome. I have already purchased another plan from them for our next trip based on the response for the last one.

Fortunately I did not need to file a claim. I was at peace knowing that if anything happened while on my cruise, I would be covered by Nationwide. This travel policy was very reasonable.
