The value of a plan is truly understood if there is a claim and how the company responds to it. Without needing to use it, its hard to provide a review.

Poor policy wording, and incredibly patronising and disrespectful assessor who I communicated with via phone call.

Some empathy and respect towards customers wouldn't go amiss.

I didn't file a claim so I have no idea how easy it would be to do so and get reimbursement.

Did not file a claim so difficult to know if the plan covered everything I expected; bought the plan just in case as i truly believe no one should travel without some sort of insurance plan.

Fortunately, I did not have to use the insurance, but I like to know it will be available if needed. One never knows.

Fortunately, we did not need to use but it was reassuring to know we had coverage: especially after seeing 3 emergency evacuations on our cruise.

Because I took out this plan close to the departure date the majority of the claim was not paid out. My trip was cancelled because the airline went into administration the day before I was due to fly. The policy 'small print' meant my flight was never covered on this policy yet the coverage was accepted by Travelex when it was applied for. The system for signing on clients at Travelex needs to be improved and a policy should be declined if full coverage is clearly not stated at sign-up. Whilst I understand that all policies have restrictions and limitations, in this particular case I was left feeling that the old clichés about insurance companies certainly apply to this company : 'if there is somewhere in a policy that allows the insurance company to wriggle out of paying 100% of a claim then they will use that loophole'. Shame on Travelex. I chose this company because of their good reviews and I took out this policy in the belief that trip cancellation would be covered 100% - I was wrong. Will never use this insurance company again as it let me down just when I needed them.
ALAN B. would not recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

      Thank you

      I can confirm that the claim adjuster did contact me and that an additional payment has been made.

      This matter is now closed to my satisfaction and I would now reconsider using Travelex for my future travel insurance needs.

Given my age and medical condition, this was a great and economical plan to have. It gave me the confidence to have a stress free travel without the worry on what will happen if I fell sick. Although I did not get to use it but was a comfort to have. I look forward to taking it again for my next travel

We insure our trips and once again are glad that we didn't have to use it. But it gives us peace of mind to have it while we travel.
