*UPDATE Employee: Help Team
In December of 2012 I made two reservations for flights between Boston and Mexico City and purchased Alliance Travel Insurance to protect against cancellations due to medical problems. My wife and I had to cancel the reservations due to the hospitalization of her 93-year-old mother. After four months of agonized dealings with Allianz including complicated requests and trips to doctors and a hospital, the company rejected our claim for unsubstantiated reasons. Why would anyone deal with this unscrupulous company when it has no intention of honoring claims?

Dear Sarah of Allianz:
Your communication is a perfect example of what I believe is Allianz' strategy: nickel and dime customers with suggestions to call and research a claim into infinity. Allianz has already run me ragged sending me to obran statements from doctors and a hospital. This has meant trips to doctors' offices and to a hospital to establish that our 93-year-old mother-in law had a myriad of new medical problems that necessitated her hospitalization.
This nonsense has been going on for five months now; the money involved isn't huge ($300) but the principal is important -- no one likes being tricked and cheated and then having their nose rubbed in it.
The Internet is full of complains against Allianz. I just read I had read about them before wasing my money and time. Ripoff Report is performing a great service for consumers. Now I'll check BEFORE I make important purchases.
