My claim was denied during the COVID-19 global pandemic during the height of government lock downs and a time that was literally impossible to travel.
I filed a claim on April 22, 2020 for our honeymoon travel to the U.K. between May 9th- May 23. I took nearly a month to get back to me May 21st (which is some what reasonable because I am sure they have been swamped with claims). I booked the travel myself which made it a pain to file the claim.
In the end I was denied because the policy didn't mention "pandemic" specifically but it does mention natural disasters and quarantines. In their review they stated that a travel embargo is not a quarantine but that seems like lawyer speak to me. To be honest, I would not have even known to look for specific pandemic text when I planned the trip last September.
I feel like my claim got "lawyer-ed" which I guess is what happens in the insurance world but I will never use any service of Nationwide's again and I would not recommend their service to any one.

Thankfully, didn’t not need to use the insurance on my European trip. I am hopeful that if I did need to use it, there wouldn’t be any hassle. Sign up was easy.

Plan seems good. Best way to know for sure is filling a claim. Glad it was not needed.

Did not have to use plan so can't really tell exactly how good the coverage was or how satisfied we were with it.

It is difficult to rate a plan unless you file a claim. Fortunately the trip went as planned and no problems were encountered.

This Nationwide "Essential" plan was had superior coverage when compared to others with similar price. I made a slight mistake on the input form, and they were fast in helping me correct it. That was excellent customer service, but I did not file a claim. Look for reviews where claims were actually paid. I saw enough good ones to buy it.

It covered what I needed, on paper, but I don't know if the coverage was good or bad. I didn't need to make a claim.

Great plan that covered all what I needed, and was a great price.

We did not have to use the plan but we were relieved to know that it would have covered at least some of our expenses had we needed to delay our return because of Hurricane Dorian.
