After my husbands back injury we still had hopes of making this trip, until the final outcome was surgery. We asked for copies of all medical records as we went through various procedures as we always do. We sent these in with our claim and it was processed within weeks. We were very satisfied with the whole experience and would definitely insure our next trip with them.
Denis B. would recommend this plan to a friend or relative.

Didn't need to use it so don't know how a claim would have worked. Bought it for peace of mind while traveling.

The cost of the coverage seems quite high. It would be helpful to have more information on why the cost is what it is.

My positive evaluations to the list of standard questions regarding satisfaction are simply based on the fact that I had no reason to file a claim. I did not encounter any problems with airlines, hotels, or health. This was the third time purchasing insurance for 'peace of mind'. It worked!

Fortunately, I did not have to use the insurance, but it provided what I needed (evacuation & repatriation coverage) at a reasonable price.

We have always looked for travel ex when using overseas and or travel insurance. Their competitive rates and being able to buy it directly helps us in choosing Travelex. Although we have never filed a claim in all the trips travelex has insured, I am sure we will not have any problems If we ever have to do so

Gave peace of mind. While on vacation in Hawaii a hurricane came nearby our island as we were preparing to return home. It gave us a secure feeling knowing that we had insurance in the event our return was disrupted.
