  • John Hancock Insurance Agency, Inc. policy: Silver

    Changed trip Romania to Germany because of the war and cancellation of a planned tour. It took me over two weeks to make contact with John Hancock’s agent to change destination countries. Many messages left and several emails sent and morning of the trip someone called and I was able to change trip destination. They had me on hold for a long time. There was no additional premium as Germany was a country, a shorter trip time wise and less total cost but no refund offered. Squaremouth’s only help was to call Hancock with no success either and send an email to John Hancock’s agent (called Seven something) asking that I be contacted. Very frustrating experience. The representative that did finally call me was very helpful but trying to have someone respond to messages and emails was very difficult.

    We believe we have filed a complaint but we are unsure of next steps. Will an adjuster be assigned to review our claim, collect receipts, etc?

    Needed more specific information about Covid coverage. ie. would they cover lodging and meals in case of a positive test result and a need to quarantine. Also if they allowed coverage when traveling to a level 4 country. All of these things were covered but it was not specific in the policy.

    We had multiple weather delays on our trip going to our destination, so I called Customer Service en route to find out what documentation I would need to submit a claim. The Customer Service woman was very helpful in letting me know what I would need and all the travel documents I needed to keep. As it turned out, amazingly the resort did not charge us for the first night that we missed & the small airline made an extra flight to get us where we needed to go. Therefore there was no need to submit a claim, but knowing what I would need was reassuring during a very uncertain couple of days.

    The hold time was too long to speak with an agent. I selected the option to be called back no one ever called. I called back and got kicked over to the answering service where the representative was very rude. When I finally asked about getting claim docs sent to me they weren't emailed so I had to repeat the process again!! Very frustrating

    I am at 83 days of waiting for my refund. I was originally told 12 weeks. Today I was told 132 days. This is an unacceptable amount of time for a customer to wait for resolution of a claim. I currently have another policy for an upcoming trip, but am contemplating a cancellation. If someone could address this issue I would appreciate it.
