Travel Insurance Reviews for John Hancock Insurance Agency, Inc.

In November of 2019, I purchased an entire plan to protect and safeguard my investment and safety; Interruption, Cancellation and Cancel For Any Reason. While in Iceland during March 2020, Covid 19 interrupted our once in a lifetime vacation. Our flight was cancelled, we had to purchase more tickets and we were required to fly into a designated quarantine airport and then ordered by the CDC and DHS to quarantine at home, which we did. The CDC website states a quarantine will take place at home. The DHS (Department of Homeland Security) website states that all US passenger returning from Iceland will be quarantined. The John Hancock policy (managed by Seven Corners in Indiana) states in section (n) states: “If You and/or Your Traveling Companion are hijacked, “quarantined”, required to serve on a jury, subpoenaed, required to appear as a witness in a legal action, provided You or Your Traveling Companion are not a party to the legal action or appearing as a law enforcement officer; the victim of felonious assault; having Your principal place of residence made inaccessible and uninhabitable by a Natural Disaster; or burglary or vandalism of Your principal place of residence “within 10 days of departure”, they would pay for a Trip Interruption claim. The policy only says to be quarantined and we were quarantined within 10 days of our departure. For some reason, Seven Corners Claims Adjusters have turned a blind eye and denied my claim twice. They manufactured phrases to persuade me to accept the denial. I recently made a 3rd appeal and filed a Civil Remedy complaint against the company for Bad Faith and deliberately delaying my claims for over 3 months. If I can travel again, I will never purchase a policy from John Hancock again. John Hancock/Seven Corners should be ashamed of how they treat customers the way that they have during this unprecedented Pandemic. Please keep in mind that insurance companies like John Hancock know that most people will give up on a denial, that’s why they’re multibillion-dollar companies. If you have the time, do not give up and fight for what’s just.

My husband became ill while on our trip. This policy covered the hospital bill that our US insurance didn't cover. It also covered the excursions we could not take, the cost of taxi to the hospital and back , and even covered our portion of a rental car that we did not get to use.These were all the things we had asked for reimbursement. Professional, prompt. I would purchase a plan from them again. It did take 6 months to get everything settled, so keep that in mind--we had traveled internationally. A big slow down was actually our regular insurance company--I had to submit info that showed how much my personal medical insurance company covered before John Hancock would pursue the claim.

Note: It would be a good idea to print off the forms you might need and take them with you.That way the forms can be completed by the doctor while you are still at the hospital. I did not do that, and had to get the ER doc to write a letter instead. John Hancock DID accept the letter and worked with us, hassle free.
