In business since 1926, Nationwide focuses on providing the best possible service for its customers. Nationwide travel insurance plans offer a range of innovative benefits for a variety of travel needs.
the plan for the most part was fine and provided us with most of the coverages we needed. What it didn't cover and we could not find anywhere was excess insurance coverage, aka deducible, for the camper van we rented in the UK. This left us potentially liable for up to and including 1,200 Pounds in the event of an accident.

There is no coverage under the Rental Car coverage for camper vans in the Nationwide Essential plan. However, coverage for camper vans is generally excluded under the Rental Car coverage in all Comprehensive plans.
Thankfully, I did not have to use the insurance for any purpose. As most people know, you never truly know how good your insurance is until you must use it; it is then that you find out how easy it is to use and what exactly they will cover. So, I can't really say how good it was. The ratings would be more useful coming from people who actually had to use it for some reason. I can only say that I felt more comfortable traveling by myself knowing that I had insurance which I believed would cover me if the worst happened.

We did not use this since everything went as planned without problems. I would only recommend buying insurance after speaking directly to a person. I tried doing things online and had some issues. I found out I could not put my son and myself on the same plan. The agent was very helpful and carefully explained everything and found me the the best plan for the best price.

In order to insure travelers under the same Comprehensive policy, the travelers must all live in the same state. In addition, travelers with different travel dates must purchase separate policies.
I've never had to file a claim on any travel insurance, so it's hard to give actual feedback when all that has transpired is that I paid money for a policy and really have no idea if it was a good value or not. I hope I never have to file a claim, but will continue to get travel insurance in the hope that, if I do have to file a claim, it will turn out to be a good value.

Thank you for providing your feedback which we have also forwarded to Nationwide to review with the claims department. We also offered you an "Anytime" advocate who could review the claim with Nationwide on your behalf.
Travel insurance is regulated by the states. Nationwide, along with all travel providers, will only pay the claims based on the terms and conditions stated in the policy. All travel insurance is written on a "named peril" basis which means that only those perils/hazards that are specifically listed in the policy are covered. These "named perils" may differ according to policy and may even vary by state.
Unfortunately, there is no one policy that will cover everything that could occur during a trip. It is important for travelers to take the opportunity to review the terms and conditions of a plan on our website prior to purchasing.
In the future, if you are looking for guidance in selecting a travel insurance plan, please consider contacting our office at 800-487-4722 where a licensed representative would be happy to assist you.
