I have purchased travel insurance in the past but never filed a claim. In 2017 me and my wife planned to take a Mediterranean cruise and I purchased insurance from TravelSafe. Shortly after we put down our deposit and purchased plane tickets we found out my wife was pregnant. Since she would be in the third trimester at the time of the cruise, we decided to cancel our plans. I filed a claim with TripMate (they process the claims for TravelSafe) under the "cancel for any reason waiver" since pregnancy is not a covered medical condition.
Pros: As specified in the insurance contract, they did reimburse us for 75% of the cost of our plane tickets and trip deposit. Also, their price was reasonable relative to the other plans I looked at when I was shopping for trip insurance.
Cons: It did take them about three months to process the claim and for me and my wife to receive a check, even though it was a relatively simple claim. I don't know if that's standard for the industry. I didn't think the amount of paperwork was unreasonable, but I found it odd that they made me submit a bunch of tour information and then asked our travel agent for the exact same material. Luckily, our travel agent was willing to answer their questions and provide the information, even though we did not purchase the policy through her. If our travel agent decided not to answer their questions would we still have had our claim approved?

Special thanks to your travel agent who assisted you in gathering the necessary documents. Although we cannot predetermine a claim, you could also have requested assistance from a claim advocate at InsureMyTrip who would have acted as your intermediary during the claim process.Nov 18,2017

We canceled this trip. The policy was a "cancel for any reason" policy. I filed the requested paperwork immediately, and both the claim and documentation were straightforward and uncomplicated, consisting of only 2 receipts. TravelSafe stalled and delayed repeatedly; my claim was not even evaluated, much less paid, until after an InsureMyTrip rep intervened. InsureMy Trip was great; TravelSafe was not.

I purchased the Cancel For Any Reason plan. I did have to cancel and promptly filed the claim. I spent many hours providing every single detail and produced a summary document that covered everything. After over 2.5 months of waiting, Trip Mate finally completed the review and have informed me that I will get nothing.... They had managed to find some fine-print in their contract. Nothing at all??? Last time that I use them.

Sorry for slow review. We had to cancel this trip due to a family medical issue. We got InsureMyTrip.com involved to assist us in getting the Insurance Company to address our claim after It seemed to stall. You guys were successful in resolving our claim within a short time after you were contacted. Thank you!

We felt comfortable knowing that all aspects of our trip were covered. Luckily, we encountered no problems. Having travel insurance was like a safety net....in case. Having never bought travel insurance for a trip like this before, we have no way of knowing if the insurance cost was high or reasonable.

Review process was slow and they found a creative reason not to cover a change fee. So I got most of the claim paid but not 100%.

The TravelSafe Classic Plus plan is perfect if you want to be able to cancel a trip for any reason. It also insures trip interruption, baggage loss, baggage delay, medical evacuation, etc. At our ages (65 & 72), my wife and I definitely want a plan where we can cancel a trip in case of a sudden illness or family emergency. I first heard about this plan from "Consumer Reports", and will consistently purchase this plan any time I want to go on a "big" trip.
