Your customer service representative gave me an excellent walk-through of the policy benefits prior to enrollment, the full policy was available online for my pre-purchase review and the online enrollment was easy. I will happily use your company for my future travels.

The claim process was straight forward and we did receive reimbursement for our extra travel expenses. It took about 2 months from filing the claim to receiving reimbursement

I was glad that my trip was safe and I stayed healthy all the way. It was comforting to know that I had a reasonably covered trip insurance with Global Alert insurance for the in case situations. Also, the rating for Global Alert was very good, thus, my decision to go with Global Alert.

I love the fact that I can call a phone number, talk to a person I can understand and get various quotes within minutes. You are making it easy to purchase travel insurance.

Claim sent to global alert (trip mate) 11/22/2016 for an on ship Drs visit. Cost $135. I still have not received a check for this valid claim. I would hate to see if I had put a claim in for a more serious incident. I will never do business or purchase a travel plan from global alert (tripmate) again. I seriously question squaremouth squaremouth recommendations also.

Shirley A. Robertson from TX
Verified Squaremouth Customer
The claim is on Shirley A. Robertson. It was filed the 5th of January, the day we were to have left on our cruise. The Cruise was January 6, 2017 to January 18, 2017. on Holland American Cruise Lines. We were unable to start or take the trip due to illness.
We are having a terrible experience with Global Alert and would like to speak to someone at Squaremouth regarding this claim and the service we are receiving from Global Alert.
We submitted all the required documentation. Heard nothing for days, so called them and was told they were working on it. Received a post card telling us they would be in contact, again days go by and we have heard nothing from them. I called yesterday and was told while they were over their time limit they would turn it over to a claim examiner and I needed to call them back this Friday. The delay is unacceptable as it is a very cut and dried claim. I was very ill and contagious and in no condition to travel. We have submitted all required Attending Physician's Statement along with copies of my Credit Card Statement showing payment for the Cruise as well as payment for the insurance. This is "Delay of Claim, and an unfair business practice"
Thank you for your help

I like calling in, providing the information and getting the policy quote and purchasing the insurance on the same call.
