Our trip was delayed by a day due to the Lufthansa strike, so we weren’t able to use our first hotel night in Sardinia. By that point in time, the hotel cost was no longer refundable. After returning home, I spent half an hour submitting an online claim, and within a day and a half the cost of the lost night had been paid and deposited into my checking account.
Thanks for sharing your feedback with us, James. We're sorry to hear about your travel woes, but happy we were able to assist and pay your claim!

Our claim is hopefully not closed. We are very unhappy with the response so far. We filled out the initial questionnaire and sent in the requested documents. We eventually received a second request asking for documents which were covered in our initial submission which suggests that no human had reviewed our application. We sent in a message and more documents explaining that Lufthansa had never provided us with documents regarding our flight changes because they were all made on line. We had provided proof of purchase and refund. We explained that after a lengthy process we were able to submit a request for a hard copy of the buy and cancel information and that Lufthansa said they have been busy because of their extended strike but said they would respond eventually. We told General this information and asked that our application remain open longer than the usual twenty days.
The bottom line is that we are very disappointed and would like to hear from someone who obviously has looked at our claim application. We would never consider using General again for our insurance needs.

The airline cancelled my flight shortly after I purchased it and refunded my money. I talked to claim personnel at your company and they made it impossible to retrieve my insurance money on the flight. I was so frustrated that I gave up and wrote down your company’s name to never use them again. It was out of my control that my trip was cancelled and I was misled that your company would not return the money I paid for the insurance.

The airline cancelled my flight 4 months before its departure so I wasn’t able to go on my trip and the airline refunded my full fair amount. The insurance I bought stated that in that situation I would be eligible for my insurance premium refunded. During the claim process they kept stalling my refunded asking for the same information over and over eventually not paying back my money. There is no way I would ever consider Squaremouth insurance in any of my future travels. I was told multiple times how they were going to refund my money only to ask for information they are ready had or could easily access themselves. I had to give them one star rating because that is the lowest option they offered but I would give them a way worse rating if possible.

Not very helpful or professional.

The process was easy, after all forms were submitted, it was approved and I got my check in the mail within a week or so.
