  • Aegis policy: Go Ready Choice

    Go Ready is reviewing my claim but although I have sent all the information they requested, they always come back wanting more information and for me to resend information I already sent.
    I don't know what to do anymore to get results. I don't have a name of a person I can contact to discuss the matter, nor do I have a telephone number to call.
    GoReady is disastrous...
    What shall I do??

    This insured has corresponded with our office 8 times over the last few weeks & is still for some reason confused about what backup documentation she needs to provide. Immediately after receiving this review, we had a manager call & email the insured. We left her a voicemail & she has yet to return our call or email.

    We’ll look forward to adjudicating her claim once she provides some backup documentation for the adjuster to review.

    appeared to provide competitive coverage at advantageous price.
    Will re-asses once claim has been processed.

    Aegis policy: Go Ready Pandemic Plus

    Initially, CS rep provided me assurance on some of the insurance policy details.
    My follow up call to request claim documents was a bit of a disappointment. The rep sent me a form to complete and a link which i uploaded all the documents.
    Your third party vendor who reviews claims advised me the wrong claim form was submitted after the go ready rep sent me the form. It was the difference between medical or non-medical reason for cancellation. I had originally told the rep the reason for the cancellation was medical and yet the wrong form was sent to me.
    That was a waste of ten days.

    We checked out system and can see that our GoReady Customer Service representative did correctly initiate your claim due to Sickness of the Insured. Our IT department is looking into the reason why you were sent the wrong claim form. We have also asked for your claim to be expedited due to the delay you incurred on the front end. Our apologies for that.

    I was told I would be emailed a claim form. It has been 2 weeks and I have received nothing.

    When trip delayed due to Covid, you made it easy to amend dates to new itinerary

    Aegis policy: Go Ready Trip Cancellation

    Talked to Eddie (1222). He told me the unfortunate information that I was not covered for my trip interruption in a very nice way. Thanks.

    Yes, we never like to be the bearer of bad news but were glad to hear that our call center helped soften the blow. We’re sure our Trip Cancellation Only plan saved you some money upfront. Next time be sure to take the Trip Interruption upgrade to cover a similar situation. Thanks.

    My trip was interrupted and I could not fly home as planned, so I filed a claim based on "cancel for any reason". They denied my claim saying that only a total cancellation is covered under "for any reason."

    After receiving this review, we contacted Bradley once more to reconfirm if by chance he interrupted his trip for one of the reasons listed in the policy. Unfortunately, it was by choice. This also gave us the opportunity to explain that Cancel For Any Reason coverage is no longer available to be used once you’re within 2 days of departure on all travel insurance policies, not just ours. He understood the situation better now.

    My interaction with GoReady was as expected. My experience is that you can easily get in touch with pre-departure agents and they are very helpful. I will not be filing a claim but recommend those interested in purchasing a policy read other reviews from those who have filed claims.

    We greatly appreciate Matthew’s warm comments about GoReady’s service team. Our claims staff, like most companies, was temporarily backed up by record-level claim volume in 2021/22. However, our claims department has caught back up to pre-pandemic service levels. We are also in the process of rolling out major upgrades in that area to increase the speed & ease of the claims process even more.

    Aegis policy: Go Ready Choice

    On September 26 I had a medical problem while traveling in Italy and reached out to GoReady for assistance. I was told by the customer service representative that the medical insurance on our policy was handled by a different provider and was given their contact info. After a few international phone calls and being put on hold, I was finally connected to the GGA representative regarding health care. What a miserable experience. My problem was that they were of absolutely no assistance or use in providing me help or a course of action. Why have insurance when you can't even get a simple answer or recommendation of where to go for assistance?

    At the time I was dealing with a tremendous pain in my back and leg. (still have the problem) I needed to see a physician as this was unlike any pain I had ever encountered. After receiving absolutely NO HELP from the GGA representative (other than him requesting a copy of my policy, passport, primary medical care insurance card), I went to an emergency room the next day. I was told I had sicatica.

    On October 12, I contacted your "urgent" help and received the following reply: "Thank you for contacing the Travel Assistance Team At Generali Global Assistance. One of our specialists will review your correspondence and respond to you shortly". Today it is October 24. I have not yet heard ANYTHING from you. What type of customer service is this? Your policy was worthless to me and I will not be purchasing this or any other policy from you or Squaremouth again.

    Customer service was difficult to contact, unresponsive and when I finally did make contact, extremely uncaring. It was a miserable experience and I cannot reccomend this policy.
