Nationwide Pet Insurance has been honest, fair, and fast.
I have no complaints about our pet insurance. Quite the opposite. Our current Airedale has had some problems as he has aged, and Nationwide has covered many of his treatments. They have done so honestly, fairly, and quickly. Our policy is well worth the money. We began with our pet insurance policy when it was known as VPI, about fifteen years ago with a previous Airedale.

Claims seem to be talking longer than they used to.
Very happy with the service and response I receive from Nationwide. I recommend the program to all of my pet-owning friends. I am curious as to why claims seem to take so much longer for review and reimbursement than they used to? It seems the average is now 3 weeks and I remember it being much quicker when it was handled through VPI. Not a huge issue, but curious about it.
