Sold an item via Etsy Sold an item via Etsy. They recommended USPS and Shipsurance. I buy their shipping insurance to cover the $2100.00 value. I buy signature required from USPS. The recipient never receives the goods and files a claim, Etsy takes $2000.00 out of MY bank account and gives it right away to the buyer. USPS says the parcel was signed for and delivered. The buyer claims it was not delivered. Shipsurance denies my claim. USPS denies my claim. You can't do honest business with Shipsurance or Etsy. No help. Cold Shoulder. They obscure the truth and their exemptions in the legalese & fine print. Best to avoid them. They represent the worst in shipping insurance.

Everything that is wrong with insurance companies They epitomize everything that is wrong with insurance companies. They are such a gross and unethical company and will find any tiny loophole to weasel out of paying a claim. For example, if a customer discards some foam packing material after unboxing and then notices damage later on, that is deemed to be grounds for closure of the claim. This is after you spend days providing more information to them using their archaic web portal. Furthermore, you have no chance to appeal or resolve it, their decisions are final.

Shipsurance worked great for me. I recently had to file two claims with Shipsurance. In both instances, I received a quick reply with a list of the required documents. Every time I attached new documents, I was notified that the claim was updated. In one case, I received a partial refund, and in the second, I received the full coverage price for the damaged item. Both claims were completed and paid in about two weeks. All my correspondence with them was done by email. I was happy with the outcome and will use them again.

Grateful for Shipsurance I’ve come to greatly appreciate Shipsurance. Easy to make a claim and share with the customer to confirm, and payments come quickly with just a few easy-to-find attachments and no back and forth hassles.

Absolutely useless My small business has submitted multiple shipsurance claims and none of them have been paid out. We and our customers jump through every required hoop and get no response. Tremendous waste of time for us and our customers that just costs us money. This service is useless.
