    Claim reference number XXXXXXX. In November 2021 a trip to Ghana was planned. The trip was planned for December 26, 2021 through January 18, 2022. The trip itinerary was planned with a travel company named Away to Africa. The trip total was $5150. Flight booked with 3rd party company named Justfly with Jet blue costing $1398. Travel insurance was purchased with affinity/broadspire in November 2021 due to the high cost of trip. Unfortunately, I was not able to go due to covid like symptoms. Provider advised me not to travel during the time Ghana trip was planned. A complaint was filed with Broadspire in January 2022. Broadspire sent me an email with paperwork to complete. Paper work was uploaded into server provided by company. Later, received an email sent by company from Etzert Chery (claim adjuster). Etzert Chery emailed me stating he needed further documentation, which was provided. April 2022, an email from Mr. Chery stating my claim would be canceled if I didn't provide documentation. I then proceeded to contact the company by phone. It took about 3 transfers to get my to the right person. I spoke with a man who said that Mr. Chery would get back to me. Mr. Chery in fact called me back and stated my claim would be resolved, and I would receive my compensation back. Encouraged I waited to hear back from the company. No email was sent to me about my claim being resolved. July 2022, I receive an email from another claims adjuster named Lashondra Lee, stating further documentation was needed to proceed with the claim. When I spoke with my previous adjuster I was under the impression all my documentation was complete and my claim would be resolved. It has been constant back and forth with this company and no resolution. Furthermore, I would like for this matter to be resolved. It has been months and no answer.

    I purchased a flight through Booking.com on 05/31/22 with Travel Insurance (Policy number: ***************). My flight was to be on June 11th but I was exposed to COVID the week of my flight due to an outbreak at work. I became ill and I filed a claim with the insurance partner, XCover.com, to cancel my trip for an expected reimbursement of $1284.17. (Claim number same as policy number: ***************) I received a confirmation of my claim (attached) stating that Broadspire will be handling my claim and will reach out to me regarding next steps. I was not contacted and reached out to XCover for assistance on 6/20/22 and they forwarded my query to the claims team. They sent me another email stating that Broadspire would be in contact with me regarding my claim. 6/24/22: I reached out to XCover again as I had not received any updates about my claim. 6/27/22: XCover responded on with the same template that Broadspire would reach out to me shortly. 6/30/22: I sent another message to XCover. NO RESPONSE FROM XCOVER. 7/19/22: I sent another message "It has been over a month since I filed..." 7/20/22: XCover responded, "Your claim is currently being handled by an adjuster from Broadspire, a Crawford Company. Please refer to the acknowledgement letter you received to find your adjuster information and contact information. Or contact Marla ******* at: Email: *************@choosebroadspire.com" **I never received an acknowledgment letter. 7/20/22: I emailed Marla and received her auto response that she was on vacation and to contact Laydy Payano, so I emailed her and NO RESPONSE. 7/28/22: I emailed Marla again about the situation. 7/29/22: Marla responded and said that she expedited the claim and it should take 72-hours. 8/07/22: I have still not heard anything. After reading the reviews and complaints regarding Broadspire, I do not expect to hear from them. I would like my expected reimbursement of $1284.17 issued to me ASAP without any more steps.

    Same as many others. My daughter could not fly home from Uganda because of contracting Covid, so her trip was delayed a week (my other daughter and I were able to fly home). Not excessive expenses, uploaded all documents as requested by Broadspire, and am being ignored for seven months now. Broadspire has reviewed all of the uploaded documents and done nothing. This happened in January 2022.

    Hello, I had booked a trip on April 23, 2022 for $5797.19 for travel dates between July 5-July 9, 2022 for travel with my husband. On June 30, 2022, my husband had an accident where he suffered a fibula fracture (ankle), a partially torn ACL (grade 2 sprain), a trebecular tibia fracture, among other injuries. I contacted Broadspire and filed an insurance claim for the $5797.19 amount, as my credit card provided travel insurance through them. I submitted all of the documents they requested on July 13, 2022. We were given a claim number of XXXXXXX. They said they would review the documents within 2-3 business days. We have not received any communication from them, despite multiple calls to them. They keep saying they will respond to us, but we are out nearly $6,000 from this cancelled trip on top of our medical bills.

    I purchased tickets to go to the Beale Street Music Festival in April with insurance through this company. My husband ended up getting I'll and we had to file a claim for the cost of the tickets. I was mailed a check on or around the 1st of June. The check was returned to the sender for an "unspecified" reason. I've called and emailed numerous times regarding the situation. A representative from Broadspire advised the amount of the check, including the returned check fee, $347.50, would be wire transferred. Over 2 months has passed and my bank says no wire transfer has been received despite the representative sending a false document showing the accounting department sent the wire on 7/12/2022. This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever been through in my life.

    Let me begin by saying I am extremely ****** at how this claim was handled with everyone involved. Not only did I send the claim via booking.com, and the company XCover then ended up in this BS Company. I purchased insurance, thinking this would give my wife and me a piece of mind. After a long wait for 2-3 months to get an answer and start sending documentation SHOWING that she is pregnant. Proof that we were summited to the hospital and also a NOTE from her physician stating that she should not be traveling since the danger it can bring to my wife, we decided to take the safe route out and create a claim. Everything asked was sent to the portal, and I kept trying to get a hold of anyone for weeks up to this date; I get no answers nether from ******** the adjusted, and now calling Marcus nearly 20 times, no answers. Everything is documented and date stamped since the day I started this claim. I have made complaints through the Better Business Bureau, and now this company will be the next included in the Fraud that is causing probably thousand of other customers. We are talking about a Legit health issue that we experienced and caused us to cancel our flights. THE ONLY THING that was unable to provide is proof that the booking company is not providing a refund or credit. Well, guess what? Every time i call them or email them, all they refer to is that they can NOT do anything, that I have to deal with the insurance company, which is ( YOU ), and I wrote a letter explaining that to add it to the portal since THERE IS NO WAY TO TALK A TO A HUMAN!!!!!!!! Did I pay for insurance to then deal with this nightmare for over three ******* months to then receive this letter? Are you KIDDING me? Broadspire A CRAWFORD COMPANY Client Claim #: N/A.

    I've uploaded all the appropriate documents to Broadspire regarding a canceled trip due to my daughters hospitalization. All documents were approved and were submitted multiple times 2 months ago. Broadspire is ignoring it's responsibility to pay my claim after daily phone calls to Carolyn P*****. Please reimburse my claim or this will be considered fraud.
