Before Trip
Adequate. They sent the required paperwork.
During Trip
I received a number to call when traveling outside the U.S. Because I was on a friend's cell phone in Ireland, I couldn't call collect (apparently that service is not offered in the Republic). I called directly and was put on hold. When I explained I was paying for the call and to please expedite the call, I was asked numerous questions and then put on hold again. I emailed and the company tracked down my phone number (which I hadn't provided as it wasn't my phone) and provided me with a case number.
Claim Process
The next time I buy travel insurance it will be through a company that does not require preauthorization. The idea of being hurt or ill and having to call a number for preapproval before seeking medical care is ludicrous.
During Trip
No activation of benefits or cust service was required.
During Trip
I did not need the insurance, but it was good to know that I was covered in case something happened.

I did not file any claim
