Update: After waiting for nearly two months I was contacted by email saying they've now processed our claims and the checks are in the mail.They are covering the portions of the trip that we insured and reasonable coverage was provided; however, the customer service was non existent and super slow to respond. ***Submitted a claim for Coronavirus ( Cancel for any reason). No response, never contacted by an adjuster. Can’t reach anyone in claims. I’m sure they’re swamped with claims but it’s been almost a week with zero contact. I wouldn’t purchase this policy or work with TravelEx in the future. Poor customer service.

We booked a trip Feb. 12, 2020 and purchased insurance Feb. 14, 2020. Due to the corona virus we canceled the trip. We called Travelex to make a claim.. The Travelex agent told us the corona virus was NOT a covered reason for trip cancellation, so they would not make any payment.

I was pleased with the ability to purchase on-line and how well the process worked when I needed to file a claim. It was easy to contact a real person when I had questions. The customer service was efficient and accurate. The email explaining the analysis and reasons for part of my claim not being covered was easy to understand and thorough. A great experience of how on-line and non-local transactions should work. Thank you.

I purchased the plan in good faith thinking I will never have to use. Unfortunately my husband Deonarine Prasad fell and broke his leg. I could not get hold of anyone lines busy and long hold times so I gave up. We handled ourselves with medical in India paid out of pocket expenses. With assistance of the airline somewhat we are back home.
I am not one to complain but this was unacceptable

The Covid-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruptions in the travel industry, and the world at large, thus longer wait times have occurred.

I broke my foot right before my vacation on canada ended. I was reimbursed for the emergency clinic I went to. Would definitely purchase this travel insurance again.

When my wife broke her arm a few weeks before our trip we had to cancel and were able to successfully utilize the Trip Cancellation coverage.
The policy did cover the value of Chase points used to pay for the non-refundable flights which was good and what I expected but was not certain of. Chase would have covered via secondary if needed but it was not needed.
I felt they were a bit slow in processing and stated a 30 day processing time which seemed a bit excessive. They also did not cover the non-refundable costs of Visas which were several hundred dollars and a bit surprising to me. They used an exclusion for government regulations as the reason but that seems pretty lame to me. This is trip cancellation coverage and Visa costs are something that are foreseeable and should be covered.
