    David from KY Verified Squaremouth Customer

    While my wife and I have insurance including some travel insurance, I find that there are sometimes loopholes or circumstances that are not covered to our satisfaction. Squaremouth has always been able to provide exactly the insurance that we need to fill the gap at a very reasonable price. Very glad that we have found Squaremouth as a resource.

    Richard from FL Verified Squaremouth Customer

    Claim was handled in full within 5 weeks. The only issue was the lack of contact or feedback. We didn't know where we stood other than an indication that the "claim was submitted." Otherwise the documentation and claim process was very easy. I would use Generali again.

    Filling my claim was easy. However, I did not want reimbursement by Zelle. I emailed GGA expressing this, but I have not yet received a reply. I want a check for the $60 reimbursement.

    As I recall, the Policy referred to certain requirements for covid illness to qualify, but did not say what those requirements were. I recommend they be written on the policy. I called a service rep, who was very helpful and called me back with the info.

    Charles from CA Verified Squaremouth Customer

    We have had a terrible experience with General Global Assistance. My wife and I both got Covid on a small boat tour in the Gulf of California. The group met, we took an overnight sightseeing trip with the group and on the return my wife started feeling ill. We both tested positive (via a PCR test) and had to abandon the trip, which cost almost $12,000.
    We filed the claim on February 20, 2023 and included all specified documents. I subsequently received a request for credit card statement copies (which had been provided on the initial filing) and a detailed listing of all expenses claimed. I then provided second copies on April 7 via an upload to the insurer website of the credit card statements and a detailed listing of expenses that included conversions of peso expenses to dollars for expenses we paid with cash.
    When I subsequently called to ask what was happening with our claim I received a message from customer service that they had not received the requested documents. When I finally got through to the representative - Latoya Washington - I was told that she could not access the claims portal and that I needed to attach via return email on request for additional information. That was done on April 10th.

    Since then I have left multiple voice messages asking for an update on the status of our claim and to confirm that the requested duplicates of credit card statements previously uploaded to the insurer portal and the detailed expense claim listing have been received.
    No response.

    Sharon from NJ Verified Squaremouth Customer

    My husband and I are frequent travelers, and we always purchase travel insurance, but this is the first time in our lives that we have ever had occasion to file a claim. Our trip to Egypt was delayed, due to an airport strike, so we missed our first day of touring and our first night in the hotel in Cairo, as well as included meals, etc.

    When we got home, we filed a claim under the 'Trip Delay' portion of our Generali Global Assistance policy. We were required to upload a number of supporting documents, and at first it appeared our claim would not be honored. However, after additional supporting documentation was forwarded to the insurance company by Viking Customer Relations, we received a claim settlement far in excess of our original requested amount. We were both pleased and surprised. Based on this experience, we would definitely purchase travel insurance from Generali Global Assistance in the future.
