Non mi sento assistita e non ricevo numero di sinistro.

Buon pomeriggio, dall'8 dicembre provo ad aprire un sinistro sul sito ma si blocca alla quarta pagina. Come consigliato dagli operatori del centro sinistri, invio e-mail il giorno 9 dicembre ed ancora non ricevo nessun numero di sinistro. Ogni giorno chiamo i numeri dedicati i quali mi dicono solamente di attendere. Cosa devo fare? Volevo riassicurarmi con Columbus per il prossimo viaggio ma non mi sento assistita e l'unica cosa che dicono è di attendere. Spero in un sollecito riscontro. Grazie e saluti, Francesca

Dopo una settimana di solleciti, finalmente ho ricevuto risposta per e-mail dall'ufficio sinistri con il n. del sinistro. Ora attendo l'elaborazione della pratica in tempi brevi e l'accredito dell'importo pagato per il viaggio annullato. Grazie e saluti, Francesca

Antwort von Columbus Direct

We're sorry to learn that you are unhappy with the outcome of your claim. Given that you were travelling to Hawaii to compete in an event we would not have recommended taking our policy anyway as the Columbus policy wouldn't cover people taking part in competitions.

Few, if any, standard travel insurance policies would have been covering you to compete, and only specialist policies would have provided cover in the event of cancellation of the event by the organiser. If that is cover you require again in the future, we would really recommend that you discuss your requirements with travel insurance providers rather than just buying a policy. The cover you are looking for is very niche, so will not be widely available.

Why would they even sell me cover for…

Why would they even sell me cover for only France if I need full Europe cover for my visa? So frustrating

Edit - I'm grateful for my response from the Columbus Direct and their ability to upgrade my France cover to EU quickly over the phone while I was at the airport. To answer their question - their website should somehow be able to advise purchasers that buying cover for just France will not be adequate for a Shenghan visa for travelling purposes and that EU cover is in fact the correct option to select.

Antwort von Columbus Direct

Hi Devon. We're not sure what we could have done differently here? You purchased the policy online so we would have issued cover based on the information you supplied during the application process. If you had indicated you required cover for all of Europe at the time, then that's what we would have issued. We also note that you have subsequently contacted us and changed this from 'France' to 'Europe' and that there was no difference in price for this.

Mai più...

Pessima esperienza. Come letto anche da altri, ho contattato la loro centrale operativa e mi è stato detto di pagare e che poi mi avrebbero rimborsato. Lunghissimi tempi di attesa dopo avere aperto il sinistro, richiesta di documenti che chiaramente non mi sarebbe stato possibile fornire. Il tutto per non pagare. Attendo ancora che si esprimino sui sinistri di mia moglie e mio figlio. Attualmente ho scritto al loro Ufficio Reclami ed aspetto la scadenza dei 45 giorni per poi rivolgermi all'IVASS. Pagate un po' di più ma non rivolgetevi a loro.

Breakfast service could be better

Beautiful hotel with great reception service. Although breakfast service could be improved as I'd sometimes have to go up on a few occasions to remind them that I was still waiting for food.

Hi Vanessa. Whilst we appreciate any positive review, as we are a travel insurance company rather than a hotel. We're not sure this review is for us.

Great value product with excellent customer service

Whilst we haven’t had to make a claim on our insurance the customer service is excellent and the product is perfect for our holiday needs (this is our 3rd renewal) at a very reasonable price. The inclusion of SCUBA diving (to 30m) is a very welcome part of the package.

Really awful service I waited 6 months…

Really awful service I waited 6 months to hear back about my claim and then was charged for renewal after chasing it. I’m still chasing the refund for the renewal.

I would really avoid this company as an insurance provider

We're sorry to hear about your experience. We note the claim has been settled but we appreciate that this did take far longer than it should have. We have asked our customer service team to investigate your comments about a refund and ensure that this is processed as soon as possible.

Prices for our annual cover have gone up quite a lot in the last couple of years but the company and the insurance policy is good and covers us for the range of things we want and has a few useful extras !!

You need a lot of patience

Received an email to renew my travel insurance, just click below.
Despite several emails and two phone calls the link never worked and I had to renew over the phone.
I would have given up if annoyingly the quote hadn't been the cheapest of several insurance providers.

EVITATE COLUMBUS COME LA PESTE

Attendo un rimborso di 300€ circa dai primi giorni di Settembre 2022. La data di questa recensione è 22 Novembre 2022, fate un pò voi... Inutili i solleciti via mail (rispondono dopo due settimane, se va bene, trovando sempre le solite scuse) o per telefono. Comincio a dubitare circa la serietà di questa azienda e temo di trovami di fronte a un verio e propro "scam". Per il momento scrivo questa recensione su Truspilot, il prossimo passo sarà quello di farmi assistere da un legale. EVITATE COLUMBUS COME LA PESTE!

Gentile Cliente,

grazie del messaggio e ci spiace notare il suo disappunto.

Per protezione dei dati personali non é possibile richiedere o fornire chiarimenti della Sua pratica su Trust Pilot.

La variante Omicron e la prima stagione estiva post-pandemia purtroppo ha causato disagi ai piani di viaggio di molti clienti, generando un altissimo numero di richieste di rimborso.

Ci scusiamo per i rallentamenti ma stiamo facendo del nostro meglio per rispondere alle richieste di tutti e nel minor tempo possibile. Nonostante i nostri sforzi, la lavorazione dei sinistri sta richiedendo molto più tempo dell’usuale.

Le assicuriamo che il nostro Ufficio Sinistri sta gestendo le richieste di risarcimento nel più breve tempo possibile.

Se, tuttavia non è soddisfatto del servizio ricevuto, Le chiediamo gentilmente di scrivere una email al nostro Ufficio Reclami all’indirizzo ufficioreclami@columbusassicurazioni.it, specificando nell'oggetto "review Trustpilot" e fornendo il numero di polizza o di sinistro.

I colleghi saranno lieti di rivedere il caso e darLe riscontro in merito.

Rimaniamo in attesa di una Sua gentile email.

Cordialmente,

Il Suo Team di Columbus Assicurazioni

Have still not heard back about my claim that I made 2 months ago despite contact being promised twice no email or contact received when promised. Used Columbus for my travel insurance for 20 years, but this is the first time I’ve tried to claim and won’t be using them again, they have lost a long time customer.

Always use Columbus Direct for my holiday Insurance

Always use Columbus Direct for my holidays. Great insurance cover, flexible and good prices. I had to claim with them once and it was no problem and that is an important point when you pick holiday cover. This time I went for yearly insurance and again a quick look at the competition Columbus were still the best.
Would not go anywhere else.
