Not much you can say about something you didn't use. It's for peace of mind obviously.

Two days before my scheduled departure for Italy I injured my knee and was unable to travel. I filed a claim and three weeks later there was a check in my mail box for the entire amount.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating and fortunately I didn't have any problems.so I can't comment on the most important reason for buying this kind of insurance. That said, the communications from the company were timely and appropriate without being too many or annoying..
Anthony E. would recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

I always look to Travelex first and buy it as it is primary. However, a lot of the time, it is the more expensive so I end up with a cheaper secondary policy if it has the same coverage. Never had to put a claim in but from friends that have, I've heard it was settled quickly and satisfactorily.
Owen W. would recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

Since we were fortunate enough not to have to use it we were happy that we had purchased it and hope that if we had needed it we had chosen appropriately.
