  • Detour Insurance policy: @the edge

    So far there has been no claim made - it will take time to get the paperwork from the hospital. I was told I have up to 1 year to get this approved so until I am healthy this will have to wait. But DeTour Insurance seemed willing to help with this claim

    Detour Insurance policy: @the edge

    I had received courteous and speedy responses to my application prior to my trip. Because of unexpected illness the day of my departure I had to cancel this flight/trip. I'm have contacted Detour and received the same attentive responses by helping me with the necessary paperwork . I will now wait prayerfully for my refund ……… So far I would recommend Detour to others.

    My claim had been processed professionally and in a timely manner within a month. I received the full amount of canceled trip and have chosen Detour again for upcoming travel end of May. Unfortunately Squaremouth doesn’t offer this company at this time so I went directly to their site. Hopefully Detour will be back with you soon.

    It would have been a 5 star rating but the processor missed a receipt I'd provided. That precipitated an exchange of emails. But the problem was corrected and a full payment received. Otherwise the claims process is easy and payment is made quickly.

    We had to cancel our trip due my wife having a heart attack. I submitted all documents as requested, and haven't heard a word from the company.
