Great coverage, claims take too long to process and prices are skyrocketing
I went with Nationwide because they covered pretty much everything even though their prices were high. Submitting a claim is easy, but sometimes it take well over a month to get claim approved. Two things I really don't like that are actually turning me away-the price increase and what they consider "preexisting". First, I understand prices go up, but a 30% price increase overnight? My plan went up $240 for the year, making it totally not worth it anymore. Gradual increases are one thing, 30% increases are robbery. For that reason alone I will not be remaining with Nationwide. The other problem I had was Nationwide looking for any reason to claim something is oreexisitng to not pay out. My dog had allergies in the past, and then got an infection in her skin on her neck. Two separate things, the vet even wrote a note saying one had nothing to do with the other, but they claimed it was preexisting and wouldn't pay out, no matter how many times I fought it. I had to eat the $500 bill, plus pay for the insurance that covered nothing. So between that and the price increase, I will not be sticking with Nationwide.
