Travel Guard claims to serve more than six million travellers annually, but only a small percentage of this number purchase insurance through the website. The majority of Travel Guard’s business comes through providing insurance products through their agent network.
Review
The Travel Guard website started out well and has a homepage that provides a nice shortcut to getting a quote and on into the purchase path. However, the site quickly degrades due mainly to the poor navigation, confusing layout and pure overload of products available.
With over 18 products available through the website, Travel Guard were always going to have a difficult job organising the information on the website in a simple and intuitive way. However, the site as it stands is more of an assault on the senses than a travel insurances provider.

I was asked to send in my unused plane tickets (to be reimbursed for a canceled flight) and when they sent me a $30.00 check for my bus fare, and did not mention my flight reimbursement ($400), I started calling. Oddly enough, every time I call my agent is in training, supervisors are in meetings and to date I have left 4 messages over 2 weeks and have not received a call back. I am still trying to speak with someone!
