    It took a little longer than the 15 business days to get the claim approved, but it was in the holiday season so I can understand the delay.

    I
    Needed to ask a question when we were on our trip as there was a potential tropical storm. It took them until we returned home to respond to my emails. Luckily the storm didn’t impact us but their customer service response time was bad.

    The claim process to get reimbursement for having to cancel our vacation was relatively straightforward. The claim was reviewed and processed in 5 weeks and a check received one week post processing.

    They processed my claims at a reasonable time. They paid me 100% of my claim. They are reliable and they really pay.

    I had a couple of questions predeparture. They provided satisfactory answers to all my questions. Since I didn't make a claim, I can't really rate them. However, I intent to give them another try in the future.

    I have no idea why they did not pay me the whole amount of my claim. My policy says 100% of trip cost of $7,998.00 for trip cancellation. They paid me only $7734.07 total. So, I don’t know where the $263.93 went. The $7734.07 was ACHed to me so I did not get an explanation where the difference went. Had i received the whole amount, I’ll give them 5 stars.

    Travelex is completely non-responsive. They did not answer any of my emails. Their website is broken - clearly looks like it is missing important CSS. Generally this all makes very unprofessional impression and I am becoming concerned if my claim will ever get processed.

    Note: the rating for Travelex customer service is NOT pre-departure, but after return.
