Run the other way!!!!
I wanted so badly to like Figo, but just about everything about them has been pretty awful. First, the claim response time was ridiculous, taking over over 7 weeks to process a simple claim. I considered leaving at this point, but called in and was reassured they were making some necessary changes and the claims would be processed much quicker in the future. So I stuck around. But then only a couple weeks later I was notified my premium was due for renewal and that there would be an 130% increase in my premium!! I thought it had to be a mistake. When I called in about it they weren’t exactly the friendliest and basically told me to go elsewhere if I thought it was too much. And, I should probably mention that my dog is a healthy one year old with absolutely no health issues. So to go from $30/month to over $70/month made absolutely no sense. I’d say beware. It seems to me they have the bait and switch tactic down. They lure you in with great rates and then slam you a year or two into your policy. And last thing, I did leave and am very happy with a different company who is offering the exact same coverage (90% reimbursement, $250 deductible, unlimited lifetime benefits) for HALF the cost. So when they tell you they’re competitively priced, don’t believe them.
