AXA Assistance USA

My grandson became ill during a trip to Peru. We took him to a local clinic. To accomplish direct payment from axa to the clinic, we called and had the axa people speak directly to the doctor. After about 30 minutes of questioning by axa, they agreed to a guarantee of payment. Axa followed up with us re our grandson's condition. We believe payment has been made. We subsequently filed a claim for payment for the cost of the phone call, and have received notification that we will be paid. We have not yet received this payment.

I believe there should be a number to call collect from outside the US to avoid the need to file a claim. I believe the axa people spent an excessive amount of time questioning the doctor regarding his plan of treatment. We were fortunate that the doctor was extremely patient, although there was some communication difficulty because English was not his first language. If he is licensed in the country of treatment, the guarantee should not have been so intrusive. He could easily have demanded payment from us directly and left it to us to get reimbursed.

Despite the hassle, I feel the service provided by axa was very good and I would use them in the future for trip insurance.

Thank you for taking the time to provide a review. We appreciate your comments and continually use customer feedback to improve our products. In all medical services (regardless of whether they require guarantee) it is always our first concern to review the adequacy of the provider, facility and treatment plan to make sure that you are safe. Your health and safety comes first! Our medical staff was not confirming whether a guarantee would be sent, but making sure you were in good hands and treated according to appropriate standards of care. We apologize if that wasn’t immediately clear. Regarding your payment, the check was sent on September 5th so you should be receiving it within the next week. We hope you will consider us again for future travel.

Will use again and recommend.

I am completely disappointed in the extraordinary lack of response to my claim. The response time between emails and phone calls is unacceptable. My claim is still not complete.

Our customer service team reached out to you again to clarify the required documents so we can expedite your claim. We appreciate your comments and continually use customer feedback to improve our services. We hope you will consider us again for future travel.

I have been very pleased with your product. I have had a claim in the past and it was handled promptly. Your prices are competativer!

My experience with AXA Assistance USA was terrible. I submitted a well documented claim for close to $2,600 after a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia (trip was in February 2017, claim was submitted in March 2017). My original flight was canceled, causing me to have to buy three additional plane tickets, lose two days of the tour, and lose a nonrefundable night in a hotel. After much back and forth and much arguing and the people at AXA Assistance mincing words, I my final settlement was $400. I was traveling with 4 other people - they submitted exactly the same claim as mine to 2 different companies. They were all reimbursed IN FULL, and quite quickly. We all paid the same amount for our insurance.
These people were impossible to deal with. I was never allowed to talk to the same person twice. They were often reading from scripts to try to explain why they were denying my very clear claim. Why else do you buy travel insurance, if not to be reimbursed for extra expenses when things go wrong?
This company is despicable. If I could give them zero stars, I would.

I contacted AXA Assistance to make some changes to my policy. The person I spoke with was very helpful. I received email confirmation from AXA a few hours after I spoke with the representative confirming the changes.

Thank you for the kind review! We are delighted to know you’re happy with your purchase and had a good customer service experience. We appreciate the opportunity to provide coverage for you and look forward to providing travel protection for all of your future endeavors!

When we were told by the airline that our outbound flight had been cancelled, I contacted AXA to see if the trip interruption policy would cover emergency rebooking with a different airline. I was led to believe that would not be covered. I was unpleasantly surprised because this seemed like a crucial covered event. While the information from the airline turned out to be false in the end, and the flight was still there, this undermined my trust in AXA and I'm unlikely to buy their insurance policies in the future.

My daughter & I just returned from our first overseas vacation and deciding to use SquareMouth was the best decision we made, allowing me to relax and enjoy the cruise, knowing that we would be in good hands if needed. The process was a breeze, our agent was knowledgeable, patient, and helpful in all ways, answering both of our many questions and concerns--and all for an unbeatable price! As a Senior, this trip was a test in many ways for me--but I am anxious to spend more time traveling with family and friends in the near future, and SquareMouth is my direct " go-to" as the only insurance provider we will consider. They are AWESOME!

Having trip coverage certainly helps you focus on the important things like enjoying the travel experience and destination. We appreciate the opportunity to provide coverage for you and hope you will consider AXA Assistance USA for future travels.

This is my second experience with AXA Assistance and I continue to be very pleased.

Thank you for the kind review! We are delighted to know you’re happy with your purchase and had a trouble-free trip but were covered in the event the unexpected occurred. We appreciate the opportunity to provide coverage for you and hope you will consider AXA Assistance USA for future travels.
