I wish I could give 0 stars I wish I could give 0 stars. I'm literally about to cry. Trip mate did pay for our trip that we had to miss due to my daughter's illness. However, once I received the check and deposited into my bank, their bank refused payment. Now I have a rather large negative balance in my account and I have been given the run around all day. I have pending payments that are going to be returned and will have to pay fees on payments that have already gone through. Plus, if they just send me another check, my bank said it could take up to 10 days for me to have access to it (since obviously their checks are bad). I'm so frustrated right now. Do not use this company!!!

DON’T USE THEM!!! DON’T USE THEM!!!! I filed a claim in October die to my sister was sick. Now she has passed and I still haven’t received my refund. Viking is such a wonderful company for travel. I can’t believe that they would refer them as the recommended travel insurance company . Moral of the story, get your own insurance. Don’t use travel mate! I may have to get a lawyer to get my refund back.

After paying for my trip I was… After paying for my trip I was diagnosed with cancer and had to undergo treatment during the time of the scheduled trip. My refund was issued quickly and I even got the cancelation fee refunded. I only paid for the cheaper insurance so I wasn't sure if the cancelation fee would be refunded.

We had to cancel our trip due to an immediate family member being diagnosed with cancer. We had to cancel our trip due to a family member being diagnosed with cancer. I was surprised at the claim forms request for medical documentation. We submitted the Dr’s report with the five page forms and were reimbursed for our trip. I really appreciated the way I was able to track our claim on line and receiving updates via email and text messages.

I had expected a struggle… but satisfied with results I had expected a struggle… but the process was fairly simple and we got our full reimbursement owed us after we had to cancel our Viking Cruise for medical reasons. We were very thorough in submitting all paperwork, receipts and medical documentation, and the customer service at Viking helped to explain also.Would use Trip Mate again for future travel.
