We contacted them on the 24-hour customer service line while on our trip in Italy and were never able to talk to anyone about our problem; everything was just automated. We filed a claim on June 18, 2024. It is now June 29, 2024 and we have not received any communication from them about the claim. Our claim status has not changed from simply "submitted". We have no idea if they need more information or if they have even accepted our claim. Their customer service is horrible.

I never had to make a claim but I always book my travel insurance with Gen global I feel comfortable using them
Was wondering if you received claim. It was emailed on Friday, June 21, 2024. Did you receive? Thanks The employee who answered questions about claim was very nice and sent me the link for a claim.
Customer service was very knowledgeable & also connected me to an agent to ask the same question.
I think the insurance is a waste of money. We talked to someone mid-trip about trying to fly home early bc our old dog was sick. Apparently our policy only included service animals (which she was not) so the trip changes wouldn’t be covered. I think you should realize that pets are family members to many of us and we could have provided documentation to prove she was in the hospital when we filed our claim. Sadly, we had to bid farewell to her over the phone in lieu of being there in person. Also, the amount of documentation that was requested to assist with any changes was extraordinary. It would have been easier to just make the changes myself. It’s almost like they request so much paperwork so people won’t go through with requesting assistance or making a claim.
Thank you for your feedback, Steffany. We're sorry to hear about the circumstances surrounding your experience and apologize for not meeting your expectations as we take customer service very seriously. We want our customers to understand the coverage details of our plans and cannot stress enough that it is important to review these details via the Plan Document that’s provided at the time of purchase, and contact us at (800) 348-9505 or via email at customerservice@generalitravelinsurance.com with any additional questions. We have dedicated customer service representatives who can clarify the plan terms and conditions and guide you towards the best coverages. To further ensure customer satisfaction, we also offer a free look back period with all of our plans to allow customers to cancel their policies within a designated period as long as they haven't already left on their trip or filed a claim. While the trip cancellation coverage included in the plan you purchased can typically provide coverage if you are forced to cancel your trip due to the unforeseen sickness or injury of yourself, a traveling companion or family member, a family pet is not considered a family member. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please reach out to us at the number or email provided above.

Review Updated: 08/13/2024
I had a Trip Interruption claim which was unexpectedly resolved when the Travel company, Gate! Travel, reimbursed me for the cost of additional airfare I paid for a missed connecting flight which was due to Jet Blue cancelling our scheduled flight on June 2, 2024 . Gate 1 reimbursed me in the amount I paid less $85.00 which is the amount I requested from Generali Global, my insurance company. I additionally requested expenses for meals for the subsequent 2 day delay for myself and the 4 kids travelling with me. My total request was for $250 (meals 25x5x2,} plus the $85 that Gate1 did not repay. Total claim was $335.
Prior to the ticket reimbursement by Gate 1, I had submitted my claim with all documents and proofs relative to our flight and us (5 passengers} available to Generali Immediately upon returning home in June. I notified Generali as soon as I received the unexpected monies from Gate 1 advising them of the shortage.
I called Generali numerous times and spoke with several agents before being told who my adjuster is. She finally called approx 2 wks later on July 7/29/24 after I left several messages to tell me that I needed to submit something official stating why the plane was delayed and then cancelled, I informed her that I had attempted on several occasions to obtain that info but was not successful; she said that they deal with Jet Blue on a regular basis and that the info was available. I have not as yet been able to obtain any info.
It now appears that my claim #24078967-01 has not been resolved, but closed.
Generali did pay my luggage damage claim of $54 in #24078967-02
I called to extend the date of my trip and was told there was no extra charge. Then 15 minutes later, the representative called me to tell me that there was a charge. It was small, so it wasn't a big deal, but they need to train their rep.s better.
We value your feedback Mary, and apologize for not meeting your expectations. At Generali Travel Insurance, we take customer service very seriously. We have reviewed your plan and since your trip length changed, there was indeed an additional payment due. We will have a supervisor review your case and re-train the customer service rep that worked with you to improve. We appreciate your feedback and your business.
So far have been submitting documents but have not received acknowledgement back. Tour was paid by direct bank transfer which was not one of their choices. Have sent letter from bank and copies of statements and a note from Tour
company.
Also plane tickets were turned into credits that expired in 3 months which we will never use
Hello Richard. Thank you for sharing your feedback. We have received your claim and finalized it for payment. We have sent you several correspondences via email with answers to your questions and claim payment information. Since it appears you have not received those, we have requested that a Claims Representative reach out to you via phone. You should receive a call momentarily.
Claim process was very easy. I could always reach a human when I called.
