  • Aegis policy: Go Ready Pandemic Plus

    We purchased a “cancel for any reason” policy. Several months prior to the departure date of the trip, the tour company cancelled the trip.
    I contacted an agent to file a claim and was told what information they required which I supplied in the form of a letter from the tour company.
    I have sent the information twice because there was no response to the first submission, neither has there been a response on the second submission.
    Not satisfied with customer service under these circumstances.

    Response from Aegis

    On March 13, 2024, Elena contacted us by phone, notifying us of the cancellation of her trip by the travel supplier. We instructed her to send supporting documentation via email. Unfortunately, her initial email, which came to us without any content, inadvertently ended up in our junk folder, leading to us not receiving it. Despite her subsequent attempt on April 3, 2024, which also ended up in the junk folder, we were unaware of the oversight until April 28, 2024, when SquareMouth brought it to our attention.

    We immediately reached out to Elena via email and voicemail to apologize for the inconvenience. We sincerely appreciate Elena's patience throughout this process. A refund check is now being issued to her, and her policy has been canceled as per her original request. We value Elena as a customer and thank her for her understanding.

    I became extremely ill in India. I had to cut my trip short and I had to scrape together the money to purchase a business class ticket (because I was so sick that I had to lie down flat, and fly back to the USA. I am now trying to file a claim and be reimbursed for at least some of my loss, but I am stonewalled and put off by your claims agent.

    We thank Mr. Morrill for his feedback and are sorry to learn of the challenges he had while in India and his unplanned early return. We’ve noted there had been email and phone contact regarding initiating a Trip Interruption claim and possible Medical Expenses. Proof of loss claim forms had been emailed, but had not been returned. The claim has since been closed due to lack of documentation. Should you wish to pursue the claim, please submit the completed proof of loss claim forms along with the requested supporting documents.

    Should you have any questions or concerns, please call our office at (800) 498-9540.

    Purchased insurance easily on-line, but happily did not need to use it.

    I attempted to make a claim. They indicated that they would send me paperwork to complete the claim. I have not received any paperwork.

    My contact with Aegis at the time I received medical care was quick and pleasant. At that time, I was advised to submit the paperwork for my claim after my return to the US, which was in 3 days. I did submit all the paperwork for my claim on April 3. I have yet to hear back from them, so I can't speak to how well they handle claims as yet.

    Aegis policy: Go Ready Trip Cancellation

    I cannot believe that mental health illness with complete diagnosis is not considered a legitimate reason for cancellation of a trip and covered by your company.

    Dana, we understand your frustration with mental health being an exclusion. However, please note that this is a standard exclusion across the entire travel insurance industry and not something specific to our company.

    Robertson contacted us on 2/6/24 to change his trip dates. We processed his request right away, regrettably, the policy documents were initially missed. However, upon Robertson's follow-up call a few minutes later, we quickly resent the policy documents. We value Robertson as our customer and thank him for sharing his experience with us.

    Since we did not need to file a claim, we are unable to rate Aegis. Buying the policy was comparable to buying any other policy and involved a significant amount of time to read all the details. It was somewhat helpful to speak to a representative in person.
