    I always like the piece of mind when I'm traveling after using Squaremouth to find the best insurance for that particular trip's needs. This past trip I was insured by John Hancock Insurance Agency and though I won't need to file a claim, it was good to know they were there if need be. Thanks.

    Am Sorry to say but due to misunderstanding with travel agency booking trip, I had to cancel policy. But John Hancock people to whom I talked in reference to this were very courteous and helpful. I have purchased John Hancock Travel insurance in the past will do so in the future base on this experience.

    I was very pleased with the help I received with my claim from the John Hancock representatives. I had minor damage to my rental car in Italy. I am happy to report that I just recently received my claim payment. I will refer John Hancock travel Insurance to my friends and, of course, always use John Hancock with my future travels.
    Thank You.

    Did not realize that policy was for airfare only. Nowhere is that written in policy. My trip was a bus tour. Due to recent terrorist attacks, I almost canceled, but your agent informed me that only would my airfare be refunded.
    That should be clearly stated in policy and on website!

    I made a claim at least 2-3 weeks ago. I was told a letter was sent to me concerning what else is needed. I have received nothing and I am getting no support whatsoever from you or the insurance company . I am at the point where I am ready to report this to the insurance review board in Illinois and publish negative remarks on yelp, Facebook and ano other online rating system. Please contact me. XXX XXX-XXXX

    I have a small medical claim ($65) and find their claim process cumbersome. Have to download 4-6 pages just to file a claim. Would never use them again. Spoke to one of their "service" reps on the phone and he was of no help.
    Would not recommend them to other travelers. Other companies I have used would have paid this claim without all the hassle of filling out various forms.

    I have sent claims for myself and my son and your insurance company said we need to submit medical bills that list our name, which we already submitted but in Japanese not in English as the medical cost incurred in Japan. A representative confirmed this should be processed as they have a translator to read the Japanese medical bill, but when I called back to follow up for the status, they repeats the same excuse for not processing... I had the same conversations three times already and they keep asking me to wait for 10 more days each time and it's been already 1 month passed since I sent a claim initially. They just need a translator to read the bill. If they can't even process in foreign language bill, they should not offer an international travel insurance policy.
