They cancelled my plan without any notice. I had used the insurance for meds I need days before they cancelled yet they said it was cancelled months before. They are awful.

Man, seems like people only submit reviews if they are not satisfied or want to complain. My experience was much different. No i didnt get an approved waiver and that is because I did not meet the requirements. I did read first what those requirements were. I called for help with navigating on the site and they were great! Thought I would share the great customer care experience becuase that is what reviews are for. Not just complaints.

This company has the worst customer service. They never know what to do. They always tell you that you have to speak to someone else, that person never replies emails and is the student the one that gets screwed.
