Bullied and Threatened by Agent/Underwriter
Let me you about my experience as a loyal ASPCA Pet Health Insurance policy for 11 YEARS. I was just bullied and threatened by an agent/underwriter. I called asking about coverage benefits for my dog "who is 11, pushing 12, and not getting around as well as normal.” I was told that my dog would have a preexisting condition and therefore ineligible for alternative care. I asked what preexisting condition. The AGENT - NOT the VET - then diagnosed my dog as "arthritic." I countered and said that the dog has NEVER EVEN been seen for ARTHRITIS. The agent/underwriter then made a threatening statement and said that I had admitted my dog wasn't moving around as fast as normal and that the underwriters will review this phone call and any veterinary notes. If there is one mention of "arthritis" she told me the animal will not qualify for a comprehensive plan that covers alternative therapy. What a rip. And to think I've actually recommended this corporate, monster machine (that preys on the emotions of pet owners) to others. NEVER. AGAIN. ASPCA, I hope your'e recording.
