I am still waiting for my claim to be processed after a month and a half of submitting all paperwork. I have emailed multiple times and called twice. I do not get an email response. When I call customer service says someone will get back to me and never does. I was told a supervisor would reach out last I called and still nothing. I feel scammed.

Aegis was the absolute worst. I will never ever use them again. It took 3 months for my claim to be complete. I still don’t have the check they said they sent in the mail. Aegis would not respond until Squaremouth stepped in. I didn’t get some reimbursed for some of my claim because Aegis never told me I’d have to do a separate claim, despite me asking early on. And a manager never called me as promised.
Aegis is a good company with comprehensive coverage at affordable prices. Policies are lenghty but clear and covered most of my questions. I interacted with staff to get answers to some questions and was not disappointed. Staff courteous and emphatic.

The customer service representative at Aegis was very helpful when I called after our trip to ask how to go about filing a claim. She outlined the steps I need to take to file for the secondary medical benefits of the policy.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're pleased to hear that our rep was able to provide clear guidance and support following your trip. If you need any further assistance with your claim, please don’t hesitate to get in touch, we’re always here to help.
The claim process was easy to complete and we received our refund within 10 days. I was very impressed by how helpful the agent was when I first called. I'll be using you again
We’re sorry you had to cancel your trip as you were unable to travel. We appreciate you taking the time to post your review, and we’re pleased to hear you had a positive experience with both our team and the claims process.
Glad to hear you will be considering Aegis for your future travel insurance needs.
I initially purchased our Travel Insurance policy online and it went very smoothly. When we extended our trip for 3 more days, I called and gave them the new return date. That was no problem and I would recommend AEGIS for Travel Insurance. Fortunately, I did not have to file a claim.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re glad to hear everything went smoothly, both with buying your policy online and updating your travel dates over the phone. It’s great that you didn’t need to file a claim, but if you ever do, we’ll be here to help. We truly appreciate the recommendation and hope we can be part of your future travels!
Knowing that emergencies and contingencies are covered is comforting.
Not having to use the services is priceless.
It takes some major worries out of the travel experience .
Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear the coverage gave you peace of mind while traveling. Our goal is to provide reliable support so you can travel with more confidence. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
I sent all the material requested and once it was received (within a week of mailing) they responded that they had received the information and I should receive a check within sixty to ninety days in full payment for my claim.
I am filing a claim for a trip that was delayed from 23'20" to 46 hours, and luggage that was delayed 10 days. No resolution made so far.
We appreciate your family being 5-time past clients & are sorry they experienced some travel mishaps on their latest trip. With this claim having just been initiated 1 business ago, it will likely take another 1-2 weeks to be processed. We’ll be here should you have any questions or would like a status update. Thanks again for being a loyal customer.
We haven’t filed the claim as yet, need to find a fax store. Hope fully they will help with the almost $5000 bill.
Thank you for your review. We’re here to assist you every step of the way during the claims process. Once we receive the necessary documentation, our team will carefully review your claim and reach out if any additional information is needed.

When I first contacted Aegis, the claim went to GoReady. From GoReady it went to Zurich.
I had to cancel the entire trip prior to departure and started the claim on 12/28/2024.
I've submitted all the forms (10 pages and some more than once) and was given a claim number with Zurich.
I've called several times starting in February. I was given different dates for finalizing the claim.
The second to last one was on 4/12/2025 when they told me it would be "expedited" no later than 4/16/2025.
That day came and went with no response. I then called again on 4/21/2025 and was told that all papers were received and nothing was missing and that it would be finalized on 4/25/2025 (today).
In the meantime I sent 3 emails recently to see if I can get any followup information.
No response at all to any of my last 3 emails, including one early this morning. I gave them until noon today because of the time differences.
I will now file a complaint with the Calif. Dept. of Insurance. I understand that they are in a serious breach with this claim.

If I could give it a zero star, I would.
I will advise anyone looking for travel insurance, to avoid Aegis/Zurich. Run away....don't walk!!
When I purchased the policy I was within the time frame where pre-existing conditions were included in the coverage. It stated so on the bottom of the page, so I didn't feel the need to pay the extra premium.
They are now saying I should have purchased the addition. Of course, they will say this. More $$$ in their pocket and I'm sure they would have found a way to deny a high pay-out then too.
They took 4 months with no responses whatsoever to email or phone calls to come up with the denial for payment. Total 100% ghosting.
It wasn't until I contacted Squaremouth for assistance, that they finally responded, but even then it took quite a few more weeks.
I will try other ways to see what my options are.
But I will never, ever purchase from Aegis again and will advise other to think long and hard too.
Their premiums will be slightly lower than other companies, but it may be worth spending a bit more.
I lost tons of money on this. Don't believe when it says that pre-existing conditions are covered. It's a big lie.. Why would they not let a client know immediately, if that was the only reason. Why not respond for 4+ months after submitting more than 10 pages and some more than once.
Extremely frustrated, furious and definitely determined to let the buying public know of this very shady company.
