Question:

Our claim for travel insurance (TravelGuard/AIG) was denied. Policy purchased January (through Expedia), trip cancelled February -- due to covid outbreak. (We were traveling to Kuwait. This claim was solely for the hotel booking.) I have called twice to get clarification from AIG about the denial. Most recently, the last customer service rep read me the same clause but seemed to strongly "suggest" -- without actually saying how -- that we file an appeal...she used wording like...domino effect, multiple factors, etc. and encouraged me to file if I thought there was cause. I really felt like she was trying to help us out. So I am now preparing an appeal. But I just want to make sure I get the wording right...anyone had any success? My basic contention is that we had "trip cancellation insurance" at 100%, but the claim was denied.

Answer:

Insubuy does not provide coverage from TravelGuard/AIG, and 

therefore we will not be able to assist with your current claim

issue. You would need to contact your agent or company the policy was purchased through for assistance.
