Travelers Mobile
Travelers Mobile is not worth using or paying for due to widespread, critical issues with payment processing, app functionality, and customer service, despite some users reporting positive experiences.
Travelers Mobile is plagued by severe billing errors, including incorrect charges and failed autopayments, and frequent app crashes that prevent users from accessing policy information or making payments R1R2R15. While some users praise its ease of use and good customer service, these positive experiences are overshadowed by numerous complaints about unresponsive support and escalating premiums R6R11R31. The app's core functionality is unreliable, making it a poor value for managing insurance.
Free vs paid
The Travelers Mobile app is free to download and use, but it serves as the primary digital interface for managing Travelers insurance policies, which are paid services. Users expect the free app to facilitate essential tasks like viewing policies, making payments, and accessing ID cards . However, many reviews indicate that even these basic functions are frequently broken or inaccessible, leading to significant frustration and financial issues for policyholders R1R2R15R17. There are no distinct 'free' or 'paid' tiers within the app itself; rather, the app's poor performance directly impacts the value derived from the paid insurance policies.
Value complaints
- Many users report unexpected and significant increases in premiums without clear explanation, sometimes doubling their rates.R4R31R37R38
- There are complaints about an additional $4 monthly charge for autopay on car insurance, which customers view as an unnecessary fee for a basic service.R44
- The company is criticized for canceling policies if payments are late and trying to charge for the entire year, rather than just a late fee.R32
- Customers frequently experience billing issues, including being charged for multiple months at once, payments not being reflected, or receiving incorrect bills, leading to financial stress and policy cancellations.R1R2R13R17
- The app's payment system is often unreliable, failing to process payments or showing incorrect balances, which can lead to late fees or policy issues.R33R57R64R65
Where it delivers
- Some users find the app easy to navigate and user-friendly for basic tasks like making payments or updating account information.R30R48R55R92
- Several reviews praise Travelers as a great company with reputable adjusters and speedy claim processing.R26R131R135R199
- Some customers appreciate the support received when calling for assistance and the overall good customer service.R48R58R196R199
- The app is noted for having large, visible prompts that make it easier to see information.R99
- The app is sometimes seen as a useful backup when the website is down.R174
It is not recommended to pay for Travelers insurance if you rely on the mobile app for managing your policy, as its functionality is severely compromised R15. However, if you have a positive experience with Travelers' customer service and do not depend on the app for payments or policy access, you might find value in their insurance services R26R30R199.
You should skip Travelers insurance if you expect a reliable mobile app for managing payments, viewing policy documents, or contacting customer service, as these are common points of failure R1R2R6R7. Also, skip if you are concerned about unexpected premium increases or billing errors, which many users report R4R17R31.
Evidence note: The evidence is heavily skewed negative regarding the app's functionality and billing, despite a high lifetime rating. Recent reviews (many 1-star) frequently mention critical issues that contradict the overall positive rating. The monetization information is limited to price points seen, with no explicit in-app purchases mentioned, suggesting the app's value is tied to its ability to manage existing insurance policies.

- [R4] Raised price: My bill jumped 80 plus dollars no explanation
- [R31] Happy to Leave: My premium more than doubled with no accidents and a clean driving record. You’ve lost a customer.
- [R37] Just bad: Can’t get my payments right can’t take the payments as instructed. Insurance has risen 30% in two years with zero claims in 20 years. I’m leaving Travellers and I’d recommend everybody else to do the same. There is cheaper insurance out there.
- [R38] High rates: Doubled rates out of nowhere. Raised for no reason. Poor company.
- [R44] Good insurance, Why charge autopay: I have them and hear it’s good insurance, but you already have my information for my home, Why charge me an additional 4$ a month just for autopay on my car insurance? You charge me 4 dollars because I chose the most consistent way for you to get your/my money? It’s just 4 dollars but it also pisses me off since it is a totally unnecessary charge that you know
- [R32] Worst company for hard times or if you’re are a down and outer: If you’re late they will cancel your policy and try and make you pay the entire year. I understand a late fee but they cancel you instead making it very stressful. Don’t give these guys business .
- [R1] Payments not up to date: Payments aren’t always shown on the app even though they are taken out of my bank. Often have to call my insurance agent to be sure the payments are being received.
- [R2] Look elsewhere for insurance: They are having lots of issues with auto pay and it just charged me 4 months instead of 1. I was reassured by an agent that would not happen. The hold times are out of control. The claims that I make for all the money that we pay is denied. I guess I’ll dispute the last credit card transaction.
- [R13] Sent ach payments in full end of may 2026 and you still have not reflected on my account-: Sent bank ach debits with transaction number to my agent and still have not reflected on my account. I understand you went through a billing update but this is no excuse for losing my payments. Even after sending my bank debit info you still have not reflected my payments. So wrong to conduct business like t
- [R17] Poor Customer Service: I have been trying to get ahold of anyone. Even my agent and no one has returned my calls. The billing issue that happened recently has screwed over my finances and has left my account in the negative. I am very frustrated. I have never missed a payment and suddenly I’m being charged two months at once!
- [R33] Trying to pay my bill: This is the third time I’ve paid this bill each time I keep getting a letter. Your payment did not go through. The account is valid. There’s money there for the payment. Don’t understand what in the world. The problem is.
- [R57] Billing: The payment should have been taking out on the 2nd of every month they didn’t take it out somehow that’s my problem and want to charge me more every month till my renew is due customer service rep is rude
- [R64] Pay bill: I had troubles with paying my bill for a few weeks. Finally was able to pay it and the remains balance wasn’t clear on what the charge was for.
- [R65] Terrible app: So much trouble trying to pay my bill.
- [R30] Love the service: Have had wonderful service with the accounts I have with Travelers. Recently had to change my account number. It was easy to do right on line. Other companies I had made it so difficult and time consuming.

- [R131] Sam Hoa Yau: Thank you Travelers insurance for providing great services.
- [R135] Very happy: I’ve had TRAVELERS for years, first on my house in Florida, and now on my house in Georgia. I had a waterline leak under the house in May 2024 that had been going for sometime before it was discovered it was spraying up against the under side of the subfloor, so it saturated a great deal of the under side of my house. TRAVELERS was my second Call after the plumber. TRAVELERS dispatched
- [R199] Exceptional Insurance Company & Great App: I’ve been with Travelers for at least five years now and have always received exceptional assistance, fantastic coverage and fast & satisfying turnarounds on any claims or issues I’ve had. I honestly don’t think I will ever switch to a different insurance company even if I’m offered better savings. THAT’S how great this company is … truly worth every pe
- [R58] App: Original rating: Glitchy to a point where I was concerned that my auto pay may have been deleted. The app needs to be fixed. May be better off getting a new insurance company. Customer service rep I spoke to was amazing, hopefully everything fixed
- [R196] Great full: As a government employee I went without a paycheck during the shutdown. Travelers let me wait to pay my car insurance till I got paid without late fees and continued to provide me and my family with auto insurance. Thank you for the great customer service.
- [R99] Visible prompts: The print is very large. That made it easier to see the prompts.
- [R174] Tried to pay online, but there was a problem with the website: I’m glad to have the app as a backup
- [R15] Can’t get past billing issue pop up!!!: We can’t wait to be off Travelers in a week! This app has become a joke! In 3 months Travelers became the worst insurance and mobile app ever. The billing error pop up won’t go away and can’t login because it keeps popping up. Not to mention our billing is a disaster with Travelers with this switch over. Horrible billing!!! Worse app!!! Can’t wait to be with
- [R9] Policy documents: Delay on policy documents
- [R12] Dissatisfied: Recently purchased home owners insurance through Travelers and have not been able to access my account with their App.
- [R14] Garbage: App has never loaded anything ever.
- [R18] Won’t load: Travelers upgraded their billing system and removed my policies from view on the website. The app doesn’t want to load.
- [R7] App issues: App won’t let me sign in. just loads, tells me they upgraded their system and then brings back up the log in screen. joke of a company. I will be switching
- [R10] Horrible: Can’t get into the app
- [R16] I don’t know: It’s been a few days and I’ve been trying to reach customer service for a few hours. The app and website never seem to work.
- [R6] Premiums: Outrageous premiums and little to no customer service. I’ve placed a reimbursement claim twice with no reply. The claims agent refuses to return emails or phone calls unless I contact his supervisor, who also does not reply to calls or emails. The supervisor all apparently has to instruct the claims agent to contact me because that’s the only instance where the agent replies.
- [R11] Really care about customers: VERY FRUSTRATING! You have issues and make it 100% difficult for customers to contact you to resolve issues.
- [R3] Don’t take Discover Credit Card: I can’t believe in this ALL ELECTRONIC AGE, I can’t use my Discover Credit Card to autopay my policy! Get with it guys!!!
