Disappointing

I’d not recommend VPI. Slow processing of claims, unreasonable limits on the one time really needed, and high premium with excessively high increases.

Phenomenal process, very easy to follow and quick on the response.

I can't provide enough positive feedback for your claim process and overall customer service for my dog's pet insurance. Thank you for the quick turnaround and easy to follow instructions on submitting a claim.

Excellent Pet Insurance

My tomcat is a loveable, wonderful delinquent. He brawls. He gets neurotically stressed out when I travel and his bladder gets all inflamed. Last winter he got cabin fever so bad he barbered a big patch of fur off his hip and had a bald patch for months. I love him, and I love having a quality insurance company behind us to help me out when he needs muscle relaxers or medicine or special treatment at the vet. In a perfect world, I'd have a quiet, sweet, even-tempered kitty. In the real world, I've got Jimmy and Nationwide on my side! Thanks, Nationwide!

Disappiontning

I have five dogs. I thought pet insurance would be a good idea, and I thought Nationwide was a reputable company. I only chose this insurance because it was offered by my employer. I should have read the reviews before purchase. Nationwide is quick to deny claims, and it takes them weeks to over a month to reimburse. Their call center is lacking when it comes to skilled client service.
