Use a different insurance company.

Honestly I think you are better off with World Nomads insurance. Sure SafetyWing is cheaper but it’s not helpful and I don’t think they actually care about your difficulty or struggles whereas World Nomads considers whatever happened to you abroad. Literally all my cash for a week’s survival was stolen on my second day in Bali, and it was even caught on cctv. I even provided a police report but SafetyWing denied me help because they said it was my own negligence. So I have just been struggling to get through my time here in Bali, like what’s the point of having insurance then? It’s a scam and a rip off, travel insurance is supposed to cover you for whatever sh*t happens to you abroad, because sh*t does happen. And customer support or claim support is not getting back to me either. Poor service, absolutely poor service.

I found them very helpful

I found them very helpful, although they couldn’t offer me any kind of Insurance because of my age they recommended a company that gave me a very competitive price. Very good service.

Simply put

Simply put, I am an aging (59) remote worker un SEA. I chose to spend on a 1 year policy. My equipment alone would make it worth while let alone some scooter rider crashing into me. I used to take more chances. Now I am strongly hedging my bets. 🤣

Reply from SafetyWing2026-08-06

Hi Robin, Love the honesty! It sounds like you've found the balance between enjoying the freedom of remote work and giving yourself a little extra peace of mind. Here's to hoping the policy only ever has to protect your laptop and not from an overly enthusiastic scooter rider. Stay safe out there, and thanks for sharing your story! 🙌 😊 Your friend at SafetyWing ☀️

unfortunately unreliable when It really matters

I have never in my life written any negative review about another company, but after months of trying to resolve our case professionally, I feel compelled to share our experience. The real test of an insurance provider is how it performs when a serious medical situation occurs. In our case, a hospitalization led to significant follow-up treatment and costs. Unfortunately, this was also the moment when SafetyWing's support fell far short of expectations, even after promisses to really help us out like they were supposed to do. We were told we would have a single point of contact, yet our case was repeatedly handled by different people. Internal delays and bureaucracy caused the process to drag on, eventually forcing us to resubmit information because SafetyWing did not process the case within its own stated timelines. As a result, we have faced prolonged stress, uncertainty, and very high expenses that have still not been payed to us. At a certain point, we became afraid to claim additional invoices, because of the amount of energy the previous claim had already consumed, especially since the 'direct billing' process wasn't moving along smoothly either. Perhaps straightforward, low-cost claims are handled efficiently. However, our experience with a serious claim has been deeply disappointing. When support was most needed, we felt left very much alone and uncared. Trust is essential in insurance, and unfortunately our trust in SafetyWing has been seriously damaged. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend the company and will share this experience with others anywhere I can, so they can make an informed decision. I still hope SafetyWing will take responsibility, correct the situation, and demonstrate that customer care extends beyond promises and marketing. (this regards various claims)

easy and fast experience

it was such an easy experience for me, i had less time and it was pretty hard for me to find one that is as easy and fast as safetywing’s insurance, i was able to receive the insurance within seconds after purchasing. totally recommended for those who are in short time, and want a very easy experience.

Reply from SafetyWing2026-08-06
