I had purchased my MSIG TravelEasy many times on PolicyPal. It was a great fuss-free experience. The whole claim process is smooth and easy but sometimes it did take a bit longer as compared to previously.1 comment0

I read a Seedly article last year that said MSIG's travel insurance has the best overall value and I have only used MSIG ever since. (Article: "Cheat Sheet: Best Travel Insurance Guide In Singapore 2019") :-P1 comment0MSIG Singapore04 Mar 2020

[Claims Process] Our Europe trip was cancelled due to Covid-19 and the travel agent refused to refund our deposit, they said there would be a cancellation fee (which is equal to the amount we paid for the deposit). Thankfully we had our insurance policy with MSIG and managed to claim the cancellation fee. We submitted our claim earlier (without the cancellation letter), and they helped to assess the claim. Once confirmed that the amount was claimable (took only a few days), we sent them the cancellation letter and the very next day, they replied saying that the claim was processed and would be paid out within the next 2 weeks. Super efficient! [Customer Service] Claims Executive was very very helpful, very clear and detailed in communicating the steps we have to take in order to process the claim. Very efficient as well, replies are typically made within 1 business day.1 comment0MSIG Singapore13 May 2020
