The Tin Leg website ability to do a "side-by-side" comparison of insurance options is excellent. This is very helpful in making a decision based on different coverage details.
Thank goodness I didn’t have to file a claim but it gave me piece of mi d knowing that I had travel insurance just in case I might have need of it.
The purchase process went smoothly but we somehow missed the option to purchase insurance which would have totally covered our expensive bicycles. One of our bikes arrived with serious damage. We have contacted Tin Leg about this issue but have not yet formally submitted a claim as we were waiting to learn if the bike could be repaired. We have since learned that it can be repaired and have a quote for that repair. We also had the additional expense of a bike rental in order to participate in our planned trip and we needed to obtain an invoice for that before submitting our claim.
Your customer service employees are always friendly and helpful. Great experience! Will use again! Thank you!
I got Covid and a doctor’s note telling me not to travel 2 days into it per CDC guidelines. We were honest and rebooked for a week later. The claim was denied. Had I just lied and said I cancelled it supposedly would have been covered but it’s doubtful. In any case, the company is inherently dishonest about the policy. I won’t be using this company insurance any more
Thank you for sharing your feedback and bringing your concerns to our attention. We are sorry to hear about the frustrating experience you had with the claim process.
We understand how disappointing it is to miss your initial travel plans due to illness. We carefully reviewed your claim, and we were unable to approve it as the Airline Ticket Change Fee benefit was not in effect at the time of your loss.
We strive to provide clear and comprehensive coverage details to our customers. We apologize if our policy terms did not meet your expectations in this instance.
Your feedback is valuable to us, and we will use it to improve our services and policy communication. I understand this has been a lengthy and frustrating process for you, and apologize that your claim did not have a more favorable outcome.
I was generally very pleased with the travel insurance we purchased, although it was fairly expensive, perhaps due to our ages.
I fell and fractured and dislocated shoulder while vacationing in China in March of this year. The traumatic injuries necessitated surgery in China. I reported this accident to Tin Leg while in China and filed a claim form upon returning to CA. After 3 months of emails, , the Claims department did not translate any of the medical records to English even though they had possession of them since day 1 of the claim. Tin Leg Claims then used the excuse of “the medical records unable to be translated “ to delay further by contacting the doctor and hospital in China.
I purchased this travel insurance in good faith, never wanting to use it. Unfortunately the accident caused serious injuries to me, a 77 year old woman who needs help to pay bills incurred. It is beyond bad business practice for Tin Leg to take no action to translate the medical records since March,, and now in July Tin Leg is using another delay tactic saying they are contacting the hospital. How ridiculous and deceitful is it for Tin Leg to take my money for a travel insurance policy, knowing that I was vacationing in China, and doesn’t have the infrastructure to translate Chinese documents. I have not heard from Tin Leg since July 8. I am frustrated, sad and anxious.
I respectfully ask for assistance from Squaremouth and Tin Leg executives in getting Tin Leg Claims to pay my well documented and legitimate claim under the policy.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear about the frustrating experience you had with the claim process.
I have personally reviewed your claim with our team to understand the specifics of your situation. I recognize that your claim is still in progress and that we have requested additional documents to proceed.
Regarding your concerns about the translation of Chinese medical reports, we apologize for any confusion. While we do have the capability to translate these reports, the copies we received were unfortunately too blurry for our translators to use. We understand how important it is to avoid delays, and we are currently making efforts to contact the treating doctor in China to obtain clearer copies on your behalf. We understand how frustrating it can be to submit multiple documents. Due to insurance regulations, certain documentation is required and we are committed to making this process as smooth as possible for you. Your claim adjuster is here to assist with any questions or concerns you may have during this time.
We truly appreciate your patience and are dedicated to resolving your claim as swiftly as possible. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address this matter.
Buyer beware. As a result of the cancellation of our flight on the day we were supposed to leave for Paris, the airline's inability to get us on another flight until 2 days later, and the fact that it was too late to cancel or modify our hotel reservation, we were charged for 1 of the 2 nights we missed at the hotel, and we lost prepaid nonrefundable museum tickets. Although there was absolutely nothing we could do about the situation, which was unforeseen and completely outside our control, Tin Leg denied our claim based on the fact that we hadn't left for the airport yet when our flight was cancelled (!!!) Our Zero Complaint case was also denied. Tin Leg's policy terms are so narrow and restrictive that financial losses resulting from common travel problems aren't covered. This policy was a complete waste of my money.

We understand how disappointing it is to experience unexpected travel disruptions. We carefully reviewed your claim, and we were unable to approve it as the trip delay benefit was not in effect at the time of the loss. Although you mentioned non-refundable hotel costs, our records indicate that the hotel was not prepaid. For reimbursement eligibility, the expenses must be prepaid and non-refundable as outlined in our policy.
