IMG Travel Insurance Reviews

Filed a claim nearly a month ago, trip cancellation due this a concussion and post concussion syndrome 2 weeks before my departure. I’ve called iTravel twice now but get the same treatment as far as to when I would receive my claim check. They are experiencing a high amount of claims and don’t know when it would be processed and to keep calling back the next week. When I filed the claim I was told it would be processed and a check sent in two weeks of receiving the claim. I shouldn’t have to continually remind them by phoning every week. It’s so typical of insurance companies to gladly accept your payment but have a tough time processing a claim. My expectations were much higher as far as the prompt service I would receive in case of such event. Greatly disappointed .. I could not recommend this company to others in need of travel insurance.

At first I did want to make a claim but then I found the missing item

I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET INSURANCE FOR A PRE CONDITION...THANK YOU

Our entire trip was canceled. I tried to cancel or make adjustments to our policy to reflect the changes in our travel. Emailed customer service never heard back. Tried contacting customer service by phone. Was never able to reach anyone to talk to you. Tried leaving a voicemail. Never a response. So I purchased insurance for a trip that did not happen and was unable to make changes because no one was available to speak to.

hard to provide real feedback when all well and we never made a claim

My online experience prior to departure was very positive — I used the online chat to help navigate my choices. However, when i needed to access IMG for emergency assistance, the office was getting ready to close and they didn't have my policy on file and said i had to wait for it to be emailed to me in order to understand what i was eligible for. It was September 8, Friday afternoon when i just learned that my return flight home to Miami was cancelled due to Hurricane Irma. All the airports were closing and there was no way for me to return home to Miami. Desperate to get back to the states, i made other plans on my own recourse. i contacted IMG Monday, September 11 to file a claim and spoke to several representatives who said i was not eligible to file a claim because the Natural Disaster needed to happen in my home town/country. Miami/S. Florida is my hometown and place of employment. The region and state was under mandatory evacuation, closing all airports due to Category 4 life-threatening strength. The destruction of Hurricane Irma could hit $120 billion in the United States and Caribbean and has been listed as the worst hurricane in history to date. As stated in my policy listed below, Hurricane Irma was a Natural Disaster (N) and therefore my trip was Interrupted (R) because this directly effected me returning to my home country (USA) and home town (MIAMI). I called IMG again and they told me someone will return my call, 5-days later i'm still waiting for the return call on how to make a claim. I'm extremely disappointed with their customer service, lack of awareness and knowledge of policy and connection to hurricane Irma and lack of compassion by IMG. PLEASE SOMEONE FROM IMG RESPOND.

I decided to purchase the medical insurance for my husband and myself because we were going to a third world country. We were just gone for a week but you never know..... We didn't need to use it but having it gave me piece of mind !!!
Very easy process. Spoke to a representative who recommended coverage amounts. All the information was emailed to me and we were able to print out our cards and go.

excellent service from start to finish, would recommend to anybody. Peter.

This is the second time I have used SquareMouth to research and purchase travel insurance. I like having competitive insurance quotes, and coverage options, and reviews right on screen, allowing me to make an informed decision. In this case the iTravelInsured policy fit my needs and was competitively priced. Thankfully all worked perfectly on our trip, so there was no need to make a claim, but the peace of mind I had knowing I did have travel insurance was valuable to me.

I filed a claim via U.S. Mail for baggage delay, and never received a response. Upon contacting them by email they claimed they never received my form and documents. I re-submitted via email with scanned documents over 2 weeks ago and have not received any communication from the company at all. I would not choose them again!

My 3 star rating for pre-departure was chosen because it wasn't possible to choose "not applicable". I did not interact with them pre-departure.
