    ANGELA from CO Verified Squaremouth Customer

    I submitted my claim 12/029/23. I was asked to upload alot of documents, I did not think all of that was necessary. Generali requires a "release of medical" form to be filled out by the patient, the reciept from the Emergency Department should be sufficent. I have not had any communicaions with Generali since filing my claim. I have since rebooked my trip, now I am out "double" the money as I have not been reimbursed yet by Generali. I will follow up today via phone, 01/09/2023.

    Lawrence from FL Verified Squaremouth Customer

    I had a question about a policy and purchasing the policy. I called in the late evening and I didn't have to wait to speak with a representative. The company representative was very pleasant and knowledgeable and assisted me in purchasing the policy.
    I was very pleased with the excellent service.

    Excellent customer service in explaining the policy. Since I am not going to file a claim can't comment about that process.

    Timothy from VT Verified Squaremouth Customer

    The Generali customer service number is worthless. I couldn't get a human being or get my question answered.
    And the policy did not cover the cost of a necessary flight change when the trip provider cancelled a portion of the trip.

    Mimi from NY Verified Squaremouth Customer

    My experience has been horrible. I was scheduled to travel on Oct. 21. On October 19 I was transported by ambulance to the hospital with a total heart blockage, requiring two nights in hospital and a pacemaker. Obviously, I could not travel on the 21st, as scheduled, as I was literally in-patient. I filed a claim with Generali Global Assistance. I provided medical documentation, a release to contact the provider and hospital and everything else requested. I have not received payment, get endless voicemail when I try to call, get referred to the portal when I email where I find an indication that my case is closed, without explanation. I have not been paid.

    I have filed a complaint with the NYS Department of Financial Services.

    I am thoroughly disgusted and appreciate any help you can provide.

    Review Updated: 01/30/2024

    I had what should have been an extremely easy claim to resolve. I was literally in the hospital for a total heart blockage the day my flight was scheduled to leave. (The flight was actually cancelled and rescheduled due to a hurricane, but I had cancelled prior as I was hospitalized and realized I could not travel.) I got Generali all the necessary documentation from the doctor and hospital. Still, it took over two months and the threat (sent registered mail) that I would contact my state insurance commissioner before I was paid. The only explanation I ever got for the delay was that "the person handling my claim had left the company." I will never use Generali again.

    Dennis from DE Verified Squaremouth Customer

    I provided copies online of a few documents supporting the claim, and they paid it within hours with no further conversation. The true test of insurance is in claims processing, and they came through.

    Leroy from VA Verified Squaremouth Customer

    Customer Assistance was of no help. The on-line claim form does not allow modification after one completes the claim amount and sworn statement. This, if the documents, when gathered show a different amount the entire claim has to re-initiated as though it is a new claim. Customer Assistance told me that having one or more draft claims, along with a submitted claim would slow down the process. The alternative filing method that Customer Service suggested could not be completed on line.
    The chat mechanism did not respond to my questions

    Review Updated: 01/25/2024

    Once the claim was turned over to a human it was handled expeditiously, fairly and with great courtesy. My complaint is with Generali's automated system. It is very difficult to use and because it does not allow users to change input after it is entered, is frustrating and anger inducing.
