They will increase your premiums 30+% Every Year, Year over Year regardless of your pet's age or if they have had any illnesses. By the time I finally cancelled, my 4 year old german shepherd's premium was More expensive than my own health insurance and we Never Used our coverage for a single medical issue. If this were human insurance these rates would be illegal. This is essentially a scam for well-meaning rich people. I would just keep a credit card handy for big vet bills and skip the scam. As a former vet tech, I can tell you that an average emergency vet visit with bloodwork, xrays, and IV therapy/medications to go home will run about $5-800, even with 'low' deductible (and high premium) plan options, you would pay a $500 deductible, plus 10% on top of that, so even with an $800 bill you're still paying $600 of that bill, and unless your pet has Multiple emergency visits or serious surgery in a plan year, you're basically paying $1,000 for a $200 discount, if you use the insurance at all. Don't need to be an accountant to figure that one out. This is just another corporate squeeze to siphon money off of the middle class. Save your money, please.
