Very nice and knowledgeable staff
Excellent customer service! We previously had purchased with Generali and needed to file a claim. Their customer service was dreadful! Thank you for your service and we will definitely use you again.
The claim process was very easy but also, my claim was simple as it was a paid in full cruise with cancel for any reason with no other travel involved. I received my expected reimburesment in the time frame specified.
Easy application. Assistance phone call was very well handled.
Insurance was expensive but not having it and having an incident would have been MORE expensive. Peace of mind!
Very positive
We submitted a claim after my wife fell ill with a nasty, persistent cough while we were on a cruise.
Our claim process was very smooth and we received reimbursement soon after were returned home. No hassle. No worries.
I had a question pre-departure and emailed Tin Leg customer service. I received an answer promptly, and it was a clear explanation of the answer. This was a very nice change from the travel insurance company I dealt with previously.
The claim process is difficult and long and, in the end, Tin Leg still rejected my claim for emergency medical expenses.
I submitted the claim on March 5, 2024. It took Tinleg 2 weeks to respond and they asked for more documentations. After submitting the requested info, it took them another 2 weeks to request again for more documentations. I had provided all requested documents and info and it still took them 2 months to return with a claim rejection statement including a reason that had nothing to do with my claim. Tin Leg claimed that the medical emergency was about COVID in 2023 but my claim was for stomach virus happened in 2024! The Tin Leg claim representative then apologized and resent another claim denial statement with reason that I only insured part of the trip! Needless to say, I will black list this company and will no longer want to have any business to do with them.
Tin leg claims is awful. I will never work with them again. I sent them documentation that they acknowledged receiving via an email and then said on the phone today that they didn't receive the email that they acknowledged receiving. Now they are asking for credit card statements which they never asked for before--I sent all the receipts they asked for. I had to wait two weeks to process and then they send back cryptic emails .
THIS WAS AS BAD AS DEALING WITH HEALTH INSURANCE CLAIMS OR WORSE. I WASTED MY TIME GETTING A POLICY AND SENDING THEM DOCUMENTATION. I SENT DOCUMENTATION TWICE. O
Finally I called them to ask if I could claim a COVID related travel expense and they said yes without mentioning that I needed a doctor's COVID administered test--which I was in no way able to get. If the person on the phone had even mentioned that I would not have wasted my time getting documentation together and sending to them. THIS WAS A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE.
Review Updated: 05/13/2024
I spent hours putting together forms and receipts --to only get $125 back on a claim that I had justified for an additional $223 for missed night in Buenos Aires due to flight delay.
I am mystified by your pointing to fine print in your contract--that because Hotel Madero didn't charge my credit card until after my 2 stays(1 month apart) I was not eligible for a reimbursement —so the policy was very unfair to the consumer.
I hope you also noted that Hotel Madero had a 24 cancelation policy which I missed by my delayed departure.
As I all I could recover from my trip was about $125 it was TOTALLY NOT WORTH MY EFFORT (hours )DEALING WITH YOUR COMPANY AND THE INEFFICIECIES AND CONFUSION your Tin Leg Representative presented me. If I had been clearly asked for my credit card statement at the beginning of the process—I would not have spent time dealing with all of this.
It just seems you try and use fine print to get out of paying customers justified claims.
I did appreciate the no complaints team you have--but I STILL HAVE COMPLAINTS--hence 2 stars instead of 1.
I have now learned that I will NOT work with you folks again—as the claim process was unfair, confusing and inefficient.
Wish this wasn’t the case.
