GBFrustrate purchasing at InsureandGo I called 3 times to find a real person to talk to since their office closes at 6 PM eastern time, it is our time at 3 PM. The communication between the representative and me was poor. I was hard to understand what she said. Even worse was she asked me which date I paid for my air tickets. How can I remember? I've never been asked this question before at previous 6 purchases. Why need this? I did not finish my second person's purchase since it took me a long time for myself's policy. Later, I called the InsureMyTrip agent. The purchase was much smoother and easier. It only took me a short time to finish the another person's policy purchase. Their office opens to midnight.

IEDuplicitous Outfit A fine insurance company so long as you never need to make a claim. We had a day's delay due to a Ryanair strike, which insureandgo declined stating that the strike was announced in advance. Of course no strike had been announced in advance on the route we were travelling, or we wouldn't have turned up at the airport along with the other 500 passengers travelling Ryanair on the two departing flights. This company has a policy of denying claims, it would seem.

GBI only get voicemail! I needed to cancel a trip after it became clear a close relative had only a few months to live. Even though I was requesting a reimbursement of less than $500., the documentation requirements were more than I could easily provide. When I tried to contact Insure and Go to discuss this, I could never get through to a live person. Calling during business hours, I repeatedly got a message stating "this mailbox is full". Very frustrating, and I definitely won't insure with this company again.

GBcontract needs more clarity! I broke a tooth on a river cruise and went to an emergency dentist who did what he could for me, but said I would have to go to the dentist when I got home. He charged a small amount of money to grind my tooth down to keep from biting my tongue every time I spoke, but I needed a crown would have to come back to France to have it finished. I went to the dentist at home, got the crown, and submitted tons of paperwork to InsureandGo. They paid $30.00 for the dentist in France and nothing for the dentist here. It cost me $24.00 to copy all the pages of information and send them the whole report via certified mail. I was told by their rep, when I was in France that it would be completely covered, but when I returned home, they denied it. They were also supposed to get me an appointment with a dentist in France, but the ship wound up doing it because they never called back.

GBWhat a poor use of technology in the 21st century. Lack of response is awful! For Pete's sake - this is NOT 1980 - I shouldn't have to write out every single lost item in my luggage by hand instead of simply uploading an excel spreadsheet with all the required info. And a receipt for every single thing lost in my luggage? Every pair of underwear, comb, brush and bar of soap? So the airlines will only cover a small portion and they require original receipts. And then the "great insurance" only covers a small portion but they want the same original receipts. Obviously I am going to get the short end of the stick. Also there is a long list of things that are covered in the policy, but when you try to file a claim, there is no form on the website for all the things they supposedly cover. Where's the missed cruise connection claim form? Where's the travel delay form? How about the claim for missed pre-paid shore excursions? I was told that if we email with questions we would get a response in 48 hours. NOT! And really, am I the only unhappy customer? All the reviews are so positive. Find that just a little hard to believe.
