*The overall customer rating is the average of all reviews for the provider since they joined the marketplace.
Customers generally have positive experiences with Nationwide’s customer service, praising agents for being helpful and easy to reach. However, some note that claims can take longer than expected to process, with delays in response times once a claim is filed.
It took 7 phone calls to reach an agent who was clearly working from home and not engaged in the phone call. I had to prompt him to respond at every point in the conversation.
Claims dept very difficult to deal with, very mistrusting and asking for ridiculous amounts of documentation , eg: pictures of my passport , my claim was a total of $ 175 still waiting for a response
It seems to me that you do not want to pay for my claim
Review Updated: 04/08/2023
I had to speak with numerous people, they asked for a ridiculous amount of my personal documentation, including my passport
Not good, I was eventually told it was not needed
The process of claims needs to be streamlined
The impression was that as a customer I was treated as if I was scamming, and had to prove my innocence
Took forever to get my claim paid
My trip was canceled due to two things my brother’s death in another state that I was in charge of and my companion got Covid the weekend that we were supposed to leave. I have provided your company with all the necessary paperwork but yet have not heard a word, or received my money back.
I am still waiting for claim processing. I had to call to get confirmation that I had a claim number. I filed my claim via email and within days of cruise cancellation due flooding in my arrival city which closed the airport forcing our flight to return to departure city. The lack of communication and length of time for processing from National is frustrating. I hope to find out that my claim is approved and I get a refund soon.

Took a long time. Weak communication. I sent two batches of documents. In the second batch I included all expenses outlining those that were reimbursed, and by how much and those that were not down to the penny. I did receive full coverage of expenses not reimbursed. That was good news. However, I had no idea that my claim was approved until I went to my PO Box and found the check. It would have been extremely helpful to know that "the check was in the mail". Additionally, my travel partner has not received her benefit to this date. National requested that my travel partner's documents that had already been submitted be submitted as if they had not already received them.
This claim was received on 1/30/23, with all required information being received on 2/17/23. The claim has been approved for payment and the benefit check will be mailed on 2/23/23.
Too early to tell but easy to contact while I was abroad
Haven’t heard back yet from them.
Disappointed with the company. I needed to change the dates of the policy and to them it was a huge deal. Never had this issue with other companies. Eventually they adjusted my dates but it was an unnecessary hassle
We submitted the claim the instant we we tested positive for Covid. We provided all the requested documents including the Doctor’s evaluation and diagnosis. It has been 2.5 weeks and we can’t even see the status of claim online. They say they are very backed up, but do not give us any timeline. We might want to purchase another trip now that we are healthy, but we can’t do so because we have not received the funds back.
Denial of the claim with based on arbitrary wording
I contacted Nationwide regarding my insurance for cancelled flights and trips as SAS airline went banrupt 12 hours before my schedualed take off. They were vauge and said I had to file a claim which I did. I had to order and self pay for an expensive flights and am awaiting my trip insurance insurance claim refund money.
