Shipsurance dropped me! Shipsurance paid me through Pirate Ship for one (1) claim, for a broken item (by UPS), and now has sent me a letter dropping me. According to their letter, I’m no longer able to insure anything through Shipsurance on Pirate Ship or anywhere else. What is the purpose of having insurance? ONE CLAIM???? I’m so disappointed! I’ve had a pirate ship account for a couple of years now. Sad!!!

Pointless "Insurance" After using PirateShip and Shipsurance for about a year, Shipsurance has decided to DROP our company for having the nerve to file a claim for a package that arrived damaged. They SEEMED like a better option in comparison with lower rates. Bear in mind, we've only had ONE prior claim, making this the second. (which I'm not expecting) I guess this company only works if you are lucky enough to never have missing or damaged packages. It is beyond pointless to buy insurance when the insurer will just drop you for using the service. We would recommend anyone not to pay for this sub-par service. EDIT: After talking to Shipsurance, they just reiterated that they will no longer support us. Their response is a joke.

Complete sham Complete sham. Have shipped hundreds of packages over the years with minimal claims and get a letter advising they will no longer cover us. They will accept that payment all day long but come time to actually use the service and god forbid you have anymore than a handful over the years they will just cut your ability to insure your packages. If you can avoid this company stay far away. And below they say they handle every claim yeah that is until they decide to cut your business out of the ability to use insurance because the carriers can’t handle any packages with care. Maybe you should talk to them instead of causing issues for a small business. If I could give this company zero I would cause that’s what they are.

Skip the UPS Claims Process, Shipsurance Is Better We ship fairly expensive hand made furniture and home accessories. Over the last 10 years, UPS has never honored a damage claim on any of our shipments, they've always found some reason to deny it. I've always been skeptical of third party insurance in general, and after our experience with UPS, skeptical of shipping insurance in particular. But after a rash of damaged UPS shipments this year, we started buying the additional Shipsurance insurance on our Shopify shipments. A couple weeks ago, UPS did their normal trick of drop kicking a carton out the back of an airplane, completely destroying its contents. We had Shipsurance on this one, filed a claim, and had a payment for the full agreed value in less than a week. I will never ship another high value package without using Shipsurance.

Don't waste your Money Beware their damage claim policies are very strict and they act concerned when there is a problem. The bottom line is they're not going to help you out if a customer does not follow the rules which is totally out of the shippers hands. On top of that they said to contact when there was a problem and they dropped the phone call three times and then finally went to voice mail.
