Great Insurance, Love the Vet Helpline, Minor Challenges with Employer Deductions but Think that is on the Employer

Great Insurance, Love the Vet Helpline - super helpful and useful, Minor Challenges with Employer Deductions but think that is on the employers end and not nation wide's end. Would love to be able to get an emailed version of my statement and account info (especially so I can send it to my employer and make sure they settle it after they've been deducting the money from my paycheck). I just switched jobs and want to continue my insurance but first need to have my employer settle my past due bill.

I highly recommend Nationwide to all pet owners. The coverage is excellent and claims are handled in a timely manner. They offer you peace of mind in giving your pet the very best Vet care when illness strikes.

Good coverage, but it only pays a small part of the bill

Having pet insurance is great, as is not having to pay all of our dog's medical bills. However since Nationwide took over from VPI, I have noticed they are paying an increasingly small part of the claims. This makes the coverage less useful and erodes the peace of mind the coverage has provided.
