  • Generali Global Assistance policy: Preferred

    I filed a claim after i had to cancel my trip for medical reasons. I provided Generalife with my trip itinerary and cancellation policy, the trip invoice, the copies of the confirmation of payment (done via Wise), my patient authorization form and my physician statement. They emailed me asking for airline information (I am not requesting reimbursement for flights-I had not yet booked one), drivers license, bank statements with the transactions for trip payment, my patient authorization form, and physician statement. I have called twice to get help to provide what is needed. I have already provided patient authorization and physician statement. on the phone calls, I was told I could speak with the person handling my claim and both times I was then transferred to a voicemail box. I left messages both times and next I received a robo-email asking for the same items as the first one. I then responded to the email with my questions and requested a call back but still have not had any contact with a claims person. This is quite frustrating and should they drag it out too much longer, I will most certainly never use them again. In the meantime, this was a very expensive trip and i would really like to get my money back so I can try to book another trip soon.

    Review Updated: 08/21/2025

    I was never able to speak to a claims rep on the phone. Every time I submitted requested information, I would receive a robo email asking for much of the same information again. When I tried to call to find out why, I was never connected to a person, only voicemail. And no one ever called me back. Eventually, i tried replying to the emails that were requesting more and more information, some of which I tried to explain was not relevant or that I was showing already. When I pointed out that the physician statement I submitted came from the doctor that was treating me and that had advised that I needed to cancel my trip, I was sent an email telling me that “refusal to cooperate” was in my policy documents as a cause to deny the claim. Finally, after several weeks, they found another route to use to deny my claim. Based on the wording in the policy, I can no longer argue and have now lost over $17,000 on my cancelled trip. I will NEVER consider this company for trip insurance again!

    Being a senior and not savvy on the computer It was challenging to file a claim. I found it difficult to maneuver the logistics on line and the customer service person said he could not walk me through it.

    I read the insurance that I bought and it’s covered with the cancellation flight. When I made the call they said it’s covered cancelation on weather.
    My flight was canceled without notification they told me when I checked in “ we didn’t have the seat for you and we need to transfer you to the other airline “ .
    Please review this case agin. Thank you.

    I am about to submit my claim to Generali Global. It took some time because I have to wait for the receipts and other e-mail from the baggage locators to make sure I can claim it all together in one claim. Is there any way I can fax the claim. There are too many attachments with it. Please advise.

    We had to cancel our trip within a week of our planned travel due to illness. We filed a claim and more than 30 days after filling we have had no contact whatsoever. Why does it take so long to provide the insurance benefit that we had purchased?

    My handbag was stolen during my trip. I was shocked when I received a claim rejection due to trip cancellation even though I submitted my boarding pass. It felt like Generali was just trying to reject my claim for whatever reason. Took a few calls and emails before my claim was reviewed again and partially approved. Did not like my claim experience with Generali and would not recommend them.

    This was the first time I purchased travel insurance. I cannot compare it to previous experiences of purchasing travel insurance. I thought the procedure of purchasing the insurance was straight forward. No need to use insurance so can't give feedback.

    We’re thrilled your shopping experience was positive, Stephanie! Thank you for your business and your review.

    The on line claim process was very clear and straightforward. They did require complete documentation (nothing unreasonable) and I had or was able to obtain everything they needed. The settled my claim (flight cancelation caused an overnight hotel stay) within a couple of days after I submitted the paperwork. I will definitely use them again for trip protection.

    June 11: I have only had one brief conversation with customer service since our return. I had no interaction during our trip. United airlines delayed our outbound originating flight which caused us to fly two legs instead of one in order to get to our international flight from Newark to Johannesburg. We were downgraded from first class to economy on these two domestic legs.

    June 27: United Airlines informed us early in the day that our evening flight from Cape Town to Dulles was CANCELLED. We were provided no options to return in international business class. As a result, we cancelled our flight with United and booked our return through another airlines which resulted in more air time and more costs, both.
