Our daughter had a fire at her business (that had belonged to us) the day before we were to leave. As this was a cathestrophic event we could not leave her to deal with this alone. Generali did nothing for the almost $800 policy on and $11k trip.

The cruise line took bankruptcy and your company did NOTHING for us. Apparently the information was in the fine print. What a joke. We will tell everyone we know that your company should not be used by anyone. We did not get to take the trip...obviously, and you have our money. I'm sure this review will not be published.

Really fast and fair claims' process. The airline delayed our departure by 24 hours so we loss one day of condo rental. The interruption insurance covered this situation. The online claim system told us what documents were needed and they were easy to download. Within 12 hours our claim was approved and 5 days later we got a cheque. We will use this company for our next trip.

The night before the eclipse when my hotel was overbooked and I had no place to stay, and almost all hotels were full, I contacted Generali and requested that they help me find another hotel. They said they'd look for one and would call or text me back, but they never did. Their policy states on page 2, "Hotel accommodations: offers research and recommendations on hotels worldwide and book reservations if requested by you." I submitted a claim with proof of my call (incident #) and above policy quote, but they rejected it. They did not provide me the services stated in their policy.

I had two issues with this plan. (1) I originally purchased it for an August trip. The event I was flying down for got postponed, so I canceled the plan, and they told me I could get it reinstated when the event got rescheduled, by sending them an exception letter. When it got rescheduled, I sent them an exception letter and they offered to reinstate it for more than the price of the original insurance. That was nonsense, because I could buy an entirely new plan for less than that... which I ended up doing.
(2) The second time the event again got postponed. Because I had already flown down to Long Beach for the event, I claimed expenses, but they denied all of my claims. They said I would get an email explanation shortly but it has been more than a week and I have not received an explanation.

Over the past 2 weeks I have made 14 telephone attempts to obtain an answer as to why my claim was only partially paid. Multiple voicemails and internal memos have not been answered except for one, from a Gerard Pardieu, which was unintelligible. I have not been able to make a satisfactory connection with a claims representative and I am becoming very frustrated. I am in the process of filing a complaint with the State of Washington Insurance Commissioner.

I really wanted to take the Lewis and Clark cruise I had scheduled -- but I hurt my knee playing golf and had emergency surgery. No way I could go on my trip. SO easy to file claim on line. And money was Zelled into my checking account within days. Very efficient in handling my claim. No problems at all. I was VERY pleased with this great company.

Had all documentation including costs, penalties, and refunds. However, form from Royal Caribbean did not comply with their rules that it must say "cancellation" and it was difficult to get that information from cruise line. As a result, there was a 2 month delay between time submitted and check received.
