    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.

    Before Trip
    agents freely and politely answered questions which helped select product.

    During Trip
    Did not need any help or customer service during the trip. Came close one day, when all trains stopped running from London's Eustus Station. Got rerouted from Paddington, and actually caught the ferry to Ireland so did not need help.

    Before Trip
    Online survey of carriers and transaction was easy. Many options to choose from.

    During Trip
    It is hard to rate because I never needed to make a claim.
