GBclaim denial While on a transatlantic cruise, I developed an infection in my gum, with severe pain and a swollen face. Ship's doctor gave me an antibiotic and made an appointment at our first port of call, the Azores. After x-rays and an exam, the dentist shot novacain in the area and drained the infection. She also gave me an antibiotic mouth wash. Insure and Go denied my claim because I already had periodontal disease (I have never had any problems) but we had paid for pre-existing conditions. The policy also stated that in order to be reimbursed, there had to be an accident, injury or trauma to my teeth or mouth. I feel that because I had an infection, was in pain, the side of my face was swollen the cost should be covered. I will not use Insure and Go again. Other policies that we have used would have covered up to $500 for the same problem!

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.

GBCan not contact a human on a business day I have a trip scheduled and insured leaving in 2 days. I need to add a day to my coverage prior to departing. Called on Tuesday 5/30 several times and can not get thru to a human. Recording says closed for the holiday! The holiday was yesterday, Monday, May 29. Go to the website and there's a big notice that insureandgousa is not selling travel policies! ???? I bought and paid for this policy in June 2016 for travel June 2017 and I cant get a response from anyone. God forbid I need to make a claim. If I need to make a claim and cant get a response, I WILL file a lawsuit.

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.

GBInsurance did not pay the claim After speaking to the insurance's local representative and filing the proper paperwork, the claim has still not been paid and it is 5 months later already.
