Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We hope you keep us in mind when it’s time to plan your next trip.
I filed a claim on September 9, because our trip to the Virgin Islands was canceled due to the hurricane. They had all the correct information and I still have not received a check. They emailed me shortly after I filed a claim and said they had all the correct information and it was being processed. I have called several times to check on the status and still have not received a check.
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. Since the time you’ve left your review, your claim has been resolved and you should be hearing from our claims department shortly. We apologize for the delay and we thank you for your patience.
My trip was cancelled, through no fault of my own. The venues in my book tour were inoperative, but The Squaremouth representative said I would receive no refund. I am considering a lawsuit, even if it costs more than my refund.
Thank you for taking the time to contact us.
All RoamRight policies come with a 14-day Free Look that allows the insured to cancel the policy and receive a refund within 14 days of purchasing. Unfortunately, you were outside of your 14-day Free Look window when you called to cancel.
Even though you did not go on your trip, your travel insurance policy features a number of pre-trip benefits that were available to you in the days leading up to your scheduled departure date.
However, if you accrued additional costs – other than the premium paid for your insurance policy – as a result of your cancelled trip, then we encourage you to file a claim. Neither RoamRight nor Squaremouth can administer claims decisions over the phone.
If you have any questions about filing a claim, you can contact our claims department at claims@roamright.com, or by phone at 855-762-6252.
The claim payment was a bit slow. Understandable at first due to the hurricanes. However after I was asked to submit documentation which I did promptly, I had to email RoamRight 2 weeks later to inquire about status. I received a response in 24 hours and the claim was paid.
I am currently waiting for a response from my claim with RoamRight
I submitted a claim to cancel my trip due to hurricane at that location and have heard nothing more I am really dissatisfied. I have used Roam Right repeatedly for vacations but I am starting to question if I will again. My claim was submitted before hurricane Irma.

Prior to my recent trip, I had never before purchased trip insurance. The Squaremouth website allowed me to research and compare several insurance providers. I selected RoamRight and was not disappointed. Hurricane Irma caused a major trip interruption and forced me to file a claim. RoamRight handled my claim very quickly. Their customer service personnel were always helpful and professional. I would definitely select RoamRight insurance for my next trip.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear your trip was affected by Hurricane Irma, but happy to hear we were able to make the claims process simple for you. We hope you keep is in mind when it’s time to plan for your next trip.
First time to file a claim due to trip interruption and delay. The claims rep was professional and resolution was handled without incident. I will use the carrier in future trips.
If a no star rating was available, I would have chosen it.
When I got ill on my trip with a very bad cough and terrible diarrhea, we were passed on by Roamright to their international "service," On Call International. They could not have been less helpful. They sent me a 5-page form, written in English (we were in Portugal), that had to be completed by a local doctor. The doctor I had seen first was out of town and so called a doctor through the hotel. She could not provide all the vitals required on the form and had to be begged to sign it at all, saying that she couldn't attest to the fact that I was fit to travel not knowing what unseen condition I might have. She finally checked that box and filled in the rest. On Call refused to accept the form because she did not fill in my temperature, etc. Meanwhile, I was getting sicker and sicker. The next day I went to the hospital emergency and, after hours waiting in a series of waiting rooms, some filled with very ill and dying patients, the doctors there refused to fill out and sign the 5-page form. Fortunately, the doctor I had originally seen returned to Lisbon and filled out the form. On Call refused to ticket a flight for my wife to travel with me, saying that she should buy a ticket ($3000) and claim it on our trip interruption. We decided not to take a chance that Roamright would come through (good idea, see below) and I returned alone, using wheelchairs to get me from plane to plane. I could hardly stand and the day after I got home my doctor sent me to the emergency room. I was completely dehydrated and diagnosed with walking pneumonia, c. difficile infection, and thrush. After weeks of treatment and a tentative recovery, I relapsed and was hospitalized for 3 ½ days. I am now 4 ½ months out from returning on my trip and still not completely back to full health.
I filed a claim for trip interruption. It was partly promptly paid. Why partly? I discovered that Roamright's trip interruption doesn't cover air travel, only land and water. So, my return flight from Portugal as well as the unused round-trip flight to Morocco I had planned to take from/to Portugal were not reimbursed. Neither would a $3000 return flight for my wife—recommended by On Call—have been reimbursed. The medical claims portion of my trip has been a nightmare—waiting for my health insurance to deal with it first (required by Roamright) and then not being fully reimbursed for all items covered by Roamright's policy. After numerous phone calls to the claim adjuster, who repeatedly didn't call me back, I am still left with a small portion unreimbursed. They win—I give up.
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us.
We are sorry to hear about your illness, and we wish you a quick recovery.
In the case of medical evacuation, our emergency assistance service’s top priority is to get you home safely. Because not all of your vitals were provided on the initial form, On Call International could not verify that you were medically fit to fly. They will not authorize for someone to travel unless they are certain it is safe to do so.
Additionally, neither On Call nor RoamRight will pay upfront for a traveling companion’s return flight in the case of a medical evacuation. This ticket must be bought by the traveler and a claim must be filed in order to be considered for reimbursement. Your wife’s return flight would have been covered under trip interruption. If additional expenses were incurred for your wife’s return flight, please file a claim with that total so that our claims department can review.
As for the unused plan tickets, under RoamRight’s trip interruption coverage, unused plane tickets are not covered. As described in the Description of Coverage, only unused land and water transportation tickets are eligible for reimbursement.
Also, RoamRight is a secondary provider for medical coverage. In order to properly adjudicate the claim, travelers must first file with their primary insurance. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, most travel insurance policies, regardless of provider, work this way.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our claims department at claims@roamright.com or by phone at 855-762-6252.
I had to cancel my trip because of a miscarriage. My insurance covered nothing. I lost my down payment money for the cruise and wasted money on purchasing roam right insurance on a cruise I couldn’t even go on.
We are very sorry for your loss. Please accept our condolences.
Thank you for reaching out to us. However, upon review of your claim, the reason for trip cancellation provided differs from the reason provided in your review.
Your claim was denied because the reason provided on your claim form is not a covered reason for trip cancellation.
If you have any additional information that you feel would affect our determination, you can submit it for review. You can also contact our claims department directly with any questions at claims@roamright.com or by phone at 855-762-6252.
