Do not ask for a call back

by Esquire666 on Jan 20, 2024
3 out of 5 stars

Called twice on January 9th for a quote and to ask how to calculate the days that I needed as I have 31 days covered by my credit card with them.
Waiting over 1h on hold to reach an agent only to be told I will get a call back in 24h.
Called back the 19th at 19h14.
And I'm considered a good client. 🙄

Worst insurance company Ive ever had

by Sarah on Jan 8, 2024

It's the worst insurance I've ever had. My flight was cancelled, and I had to book another flight. When I contacted them to ask for compensation, they asked me to send in documents. After three months, during my follow-up, they indicated that the documents had to be sent back. I sent them back, but after another three months, the person I spoke to on the phone finally said that the insurance doesn't cover flight cancellations. What do they cover????

Worst Coverage & Service Experience

by Glenda on Jan 5, 2024

RBC Avion Travel insurance changed and now provide 3rd party insurance coverage under Allianz Insurance and my experience in submitting delayed flight and delayed luggage has been horrible. I have been trying for over a year on a flight delay during the winter storm. The lack of Allianz support and communication has been horrendous on their claim submittal process. I Would not recommend RBC Avion Travel card nor their insurance!

Great value - as long as you never have to make a claim!

It's been 7 months since my medical incident, and 5 months since I submitted all receipts (the hospital took 2 months to send invoices - as Allianz (RBC's provider) would not pay hospital directly.).
After no progress for months, I had an email today asking for a receipt that was previously submitted that was somehow misplace.
Trying to get an update via phone (with long holding times) was useless. Claim was always in progress. . .
Allianz is hugely understaffed.

I'll never buy RBC insurance again, as long as Allianz is the provider.

Do NOT buy this insurance!

As a long-time RBC customer, I thought I could have confidence in purchasing this insurance product. Boy, was I wrong! My case was so simple. I fell and struck my chest. After three days of considerable pain, I felt it best to go to ER and have it checked. A few questions, a simple chest xray and the doctor confirmed to fracture or concerns. No medication, nothing else required. Good - easy. Yes, it is Florida so the bill for that was $1,600. I have been fighting with this insurer for six months. Still they have not paid and continue to get threatening emails and calls from the medical provider.
Folks, this can JEOPARDIZE YOUR CREDIT RATING. They take your money and then don't pay out their claims. I will also be formally filing a complaint with the Royal Bank.
RBC, SHAME ON YOU FOR USING THEM AND EVEN ALLOWING YOUR LOGO TO APPEAR ON THEIR DOCUMENTATION. I will be closing my bank accounts @ RBC as well.

Worst customer experience I have ever encountered.

Everything said in all of the previous reviews are 100 per cent accurate. We have been dealing with Allianz for over 6 months now trying to resolve a $200 claim and had nothing but a run around. They even went as far as wanting proof of our RBC travel health purchase as the told us that they had nothing on record. Pathetic and RBC should be ashamed for even being associated with Allianz Global ASSISTANCE! Joke of a name.

Absolute worst!

Rest assured that you won’t be able to contact them, no one answers their phones. It doesn’t matter what time of day you call, they are “always experiencing high call volumes”. When you submit a claim, be prepared for them to ask you for the same documents over and over again. It’s been a month and I’m still waiting. It’s obvious they don’t want to pay even though they should as per their policy. They are clearly trying to frustrate me so I don’t keep asking for reimbursement. Shocking defeat the whole purpose of having insurance when you get zero benefits from them!

RBC travel insurance/ Allianz provide incredibly frustrating lack of service

by Alan C McDonald on Oct 19, 2022

You provide all documents to Allianz and wait...and wait...and wait.
Months later they request the same information. For example, they request proof that there is no refund... The documents sent clearly say no refund. So we rescan the same documents and circle/highlight where it says no refunds.
After multiple requests, resubmissions, and months of waiting, they move on to other requests like proof of prepaid airline tickets for our return flight. To take advantage of an employee discount we were flying standby however, our numerous canceled documents for our 5-week vacation (cut short to just 1 week because my wife fell, broke her arm, and needed surgery) cruise, etc were clearly dated after our flight home.
And trying to phone Allianz is very frustrating... a recording either informs you they are too busy and call back OR you wait hours on hold. If I could rate them with a negative star, I would. I suggest you get your travel insurance elsewhere

Not able to reach them

It has been three days that I have been trying to contact them to get clarity with regard to the insurance coverage that we have. Spend hours waiting on hold to speak to no one. Very disappointed! Find someone else who will value your business.

Zero customer service

by Shawna C. on Oct 5, 2022

I bought travel insurance for my daughter but we never received a confirmation email. I have called 3 different toll-free numbers, waiting on hold for hours, and with one of them was able to leave a callback number - however, the callback was supposed to be 3 hours ago so I don't think I am going to hear from anyone. This is absolutely ridiculous.
