Coverwise customer reviews summary

Coverwise travel insurance is a mixed bag, offering both ease of use and competitive prices when signing up, but lacking in customer service when it comes to making claims. While some customers have had positive experiences with Coverwise's customer service and efficient setup process, others have been left frustrated by the lack of response when attempting to make a claim. Overall, Coverwise provides an easy way to purchase travel insurance - as long as you don't need to make a claim. Score: 6/10
