Great customer service and response time is quick.

I am a new customer of Embrace and have 2 puppies. Lots of appts with the vet for shots, worms, ear infections, etc. I have sent my invoices in and had a response the next day and a check shortly after that. I am very pleased with Embrace and highly recommend them.

Great Customer Service, Quick Processing

I recently made a claim. Embrace contacted me through every step via email to let me know that they received my paperwork, processed the request and issued the payment. I received a check just 3 weeks after submitting the request. I am impressed and happy that I chose Embrace :)

Very easy process

We just made and received our first claim under the Wellness Plan. The process couldn't have been easier and everytime I needed to talk to somebody on the phone, the customer service rep was very helpful. The reimbursement check came faster than they promised. Thanks again.

Feel Completely Tricked

I signed up for a policy for my American Bulldog mix. After I sent in the paperwork for my health history review, I received notification that I needed to prove that my dog was a mix instead of a purebred - his file at the vet mistakenly identified him as a plain American Bulldog - or they were going to raise my premium. I talked to the vet and they said they would provide a written statement indicating that it was an error on their part, and that I really do have a mix. Embrace said this was not sufficient -- that I had to have something from the rescue. Which made no sense to me since they had to guess at what he said and the vet is way more qualified. I was also told that I could send in pictures to demonstrate that he was a mix. So I did. And I was then informed that I had a Boxer Mix so they were going to raise my rates anyway. Which is absolutely ridiculous b/c I did was I was asked to - I proved he was an American Bulldog mix and the underwriters at Embrace switched it up on me so they could raise my rates anyway. I asked for clarification on why they were raising the rates anyway, when I had done what they asked, and had a vet that was willing to atest to that. Instead of getting a response, I got an email informing me that my premium had been raised and my card had already been charged. I feel completely hoodwinked and feel that Embrace has some unethical business practices. I have cancelled my policy b/c I do not want to do business with people I can't trust to be honest. I've read through these other reviews and realize that I am completely in the minority, but wanted to share my experience anyways.
