Although I rated everything a five star I'm not really sure how the coverage would have worked if needed. However, when researching for coverage I found the information easy to understand and the representative that I chatted with was fantastic. Having affordable coverage put my mind at ease.

Living in a hurricane prone area and also going to a hurricane prone area, I purchased the insurance just in case a named storm was to threated my home town and/or the location of my vacation. I understand after I bought the insurance, you'll do not offer protection if the plane still flew and the hotel was to stay open even it the named storm was to hit that area. If my home town was possibly being threaten by a storm right before my trip, and/or during my trip, I would not have gone on the trip! Same thing at the resort location. This is why I bought the insurance.

    We understand that our customers never wish to hear that there would be no coverage under their policy. However, in order to receive reimbursement for canceling your trip, the reason for cancellation must be a named peril as listed in the policy. These covered reasons will vary from plan to plan and will determine coverage, such as, the following perils as listed in your Nationwide Essential policy;

    "You or a Traveling Companion... having Your principal place of residence made Uninhabitable by fire, flood, volcano, earthquake, hurricane or other natural disaster...; or a
    Natural disaster at the site of Your destination that renders Your destination accommodations Uninhabitable...;

    Weather that causes complete cessation of services of the Common Carrier for at least twenty-four (24) consecutive hours and prevents You from reaching Your destination. This benefit will not apply if the potential natural disaster has been forecasted
    or a storm has been named prior to purchase of this coverage..."

    Since these covered reasons do vary from plan to plan, travelers should always review this information which can be found under View Certificate prior to purchasing the policy.

    We are sorry for your disappointment with your plan. Since coverage significantly differs from plan to plan, please consider calling us for assistance with your future travel.

I always insure when going out of the country and thankfully have never need it. This trip was wonderful and enjoyable. I do not wish to file a claim but was surprised to find that the baggage handlers at the Dominican Republic had opened and stolen gifts that I had purchased for my Grand children.

Fortunately, we did not have to file a claim while traveling on our Honeymoon. However, it brought a peace of mind to my wife and I knowing we were covered with such an affordable policy. Would definitely recommend this policy.

I submitted a claim to get reimbursed for a trip delay. It was a relatively simple request for relatively small dollars. I submitted the claim on March 13; I finally received the insurance checks on May 8. That's much longer than it should take, in my opinion.

First time I have needed to call to file a claim since I have been purchasing insurance plans for trips. What a disappointment to find out that when I needed it - it would not cover our stolen cell phone in the Dominican Republic. Next time I know to read the fine details of a plan to know that some of the most expensive items I travel with such as cellphone and computer are NOT covered with this plan. I now know in the future when purchasing a plan to look at the detailed article coverage.

    Thank you for providing feedback on this policy.

    We are sorry to hear that your phone was stolen during your trip. It is unfortunate that most travel insurance policies will exclude or provide very limited coverage for electronics and cell phones.

    When planning to purchase a policy, we recommend contacting us by phone at 1-800-487-4722 to review the limitations and exclusions of our plans. We can also provide recommendations to you based on your main concerns. Our licensed representatives are avaiable 7 days a week.

    Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions or concerns.
