Travel Insurance Reviews for John Hancock Insurance Agency, Inc.

My trip needed to be cancelled which should have been covered under the "cancel for any reason" provision that I paid for. I submitted all of the documents asked for and received a response that they were received. It's 2 months later and finally a settlement. The coverage may be OK for the price, but the customer service is very poor. Think twice about purchasing this plan.

I filed a claim under the cancellation clause due to COVID infection. I was directed to portal to file paperwork kept receiving emails to submit paperwork after each submission. No direct email to agent or support.

The small print said the claim didn’t cover countries at war. Well, Israel wasn’t at war when I bought the policy. The war started because of a terrorist act which was covered by my policy. I’m very dissaisfied.

Purchased John Hancock Gold plan for a trip to Croatia. Our flight to Croatia was cancelled. Luckily, we live in the area and were able return home not incurring any hotel fees (trip delay insurance max $200/day per person on the gold plan). We managed to get a flight out the next day. I was able to use the "trip delay" insurance coverage to cover the Lyft back home, to the airport the next day and our first night at the Airbnb which was non-refundable. The process took several months - The policy required that you get a written statement from the airline as to the reason for the delay. I wasted a lot of time on the phone with agents trying to get documentation with no results. Also sent emails to their customer service with no results. Finally, sent a letter (snail mail) to the airline's customer service and they responded with an email with the reason (BINGO!). It's odd, I had proof and documentation that the flight was cancelled - the challenge was getting the documented reason for the cancellation. I'm not sure why a reason also needed to be documented. Nevertheless, for all future trip planning I'm just going to assume that a claim will be filed and will ensure that all documentation any reasons for delays/cancellations and for any purchase is readily available so that I'm not in search of it later if a claim is actually made. I also know to use the mail (not email or the phone) when attempting to get an airline to respond to questions for claims.

It took more than 2 months and several phone calls to receive payment for a very straightforward claim. There are also absurd requirement for redundant documentation (e.g. a copy of a train ticket with the amount paid stated clearly on the ticket was not enough — they also required a copy of my credit card statement).

Terrible. Cruise was canceled and a month after filing the claim, just getting a run around. I've repeatedly sent them 19 pages of documentation and they keep saying I'm missing something. I tell them its right there and give them the page number and then they just ask for something else thats in the same package of documents. You call and they won't give you people's full names and refuse to give an extension number so you can contact them. I'm getting no where and honestly considering hiring an attorney to deal with this.

Poor communication and challenging requirements when filing a claim.

Filed claim for small medical bill.
The processing time was about 6 weeks. Not the fastest but no issues.

Plan appeared to provide good coverage at a reasonable cost. Filed a claim for a travel delay outbound to our cruise and while it was fully paid, it took 2 months for the process to be completed. Make sure you document EVERYTHING and submit it all.
