Viking and TripMate made the claim a good experience We purchased a Viking river cruise in France in June 2023 for sail in March-April of 2024. As a part of that package we purchased TripMate insurance that would allow us to cancel for any reason up to the day of travel. I was laid off in January 2024, and needed to cancel the trip to recoup those funds. TripMate processed the claim promptly and full refunded our trip. Viking helped get the process started by providing good guidance, and they were accurate in their description of the end-to-end experience.

surprisingly easy We were surprised on how easy the process was. Our flight was canceled and we weren't able to leave until the next day. They reimbursed the hotel night at the airport and the lost day at the resort. Filled out the claim, included all the documentation requested, and quickly received a refund.

DO NOt BUY THIS TRAVEL INSURANCE! In October 2023 we went on a Viking Cruise and purchased Trip Mate Ins. I fell on loose cobblestones in Germany and had to get 3 stitches in my head. The doctor ordered 3 days bedrest, so we missed three days of the cruise and excursions. We filled the extensive claim in November with all the required forms and receipts. Over the course of five months continually emailed asking us for for various forms and receipts that we sent in with the original claim. For trip interruption they owed us $3,100, they just sent us a e-check for $318.00. I would give them a zero rating if I could. Do not buy this insurance.

Claim submission behind the times! The filing of a claim on line and then having to print out to sign the form, is so inconvient as a printer is required. Electronic signature is possible as well as submission of claims electronically. Submission of the claims, all paper copies, have to be scanned in the system at Tripmate. My claim was paid at least 3 weeks from submission to payment. Communication as per the status of the claim was Incomplete. Texts via phone occurred one time only. Email communication was nonexistent.

These guys are just scammers and need… These guys are just scammers and need to be sued along with all the platforms that advertise this company. They will just send automated emails demanding all kinds of Bull information. And once you provide it over a few months they will send an auto response of denial. They are just stealing money from customers and they are getting away with it!
