We had to take to Univerity for dogs. We were so scared we were going to lose her. We wondered if our dog insurance would cover any of this but we decided we were going to do whatever it took. Turned our claim in and less than a week we got our money Thank you Purina Care Just knowing someone cares about animals is half the battle. Stormie has a long way to go but with people like you thumbs UP Comment on this Review | Was this review helpful to you?         10/10   Excellent Customer Service, 9/15/2011 Reviewed By: J O'Neill, Recommend: Y I submitted a claim on September 8, 2011 to PurinaCare, and received a check on September 14, 2011. The check was dated September 9 - yes, my claim was processed within one day! The explanation of benefits matched exactly what I expected based on my policy. I think this is exceptional service by PurinaCare Claims department staff! By the way, this is not the first time I have received prompt and responsive service from this company. After a pre-existing condition resolved itself for my cat, Gil, I requested a review of the exclusion. PurinaCare promptly reviewed the documentation I provided, and notified me the exclusion was removed from my policy. I appreciate the consistent quality of the service PurinaCare provides and would recommend this company without hesitation! Comment on this Review | Was this review helpful to you?         10/10   My analysis proves right., 9/15/2011 Reviewed By: Peter Raben, Recommend: Y I am senior vice president of a major wall street firm and I very familiar with insurance products. When I researched various insurance carriers for my pet whippets I am glad I selected Purina. One of my dogs had a serious back injury and required emergency care. Several days later I submitted my claim and it was reviewed and paid very quickley. I hope that I never have to submit another claim for my pets. I will continue to maintain Purina coverage for them for those unexpected events.
