Competitive Rates, But a Frustrating Claims Process

I chose MetLife because of the competitive rates they offered after my previous pet insurer drastically increased premiums. Unfortunately, the transition has been frustrating. Several vet visits and conditions were classified as “pre-existing” simply because they were covered under my prior policy. On top of that, every claim has been delayed, repeatedly requesting additional documentation—specifically the veterinarian’s SOAP notes. These notes have been submitted multiple times for each claim, yet the process stalls. Either the notes are difficult for MetLife to interpret, or there’s a systemic issue. If your claim isn’t extremely detailed and prescriptive, expect it to be denied.

Great coverage and quick payments

Great coverage and quick payments - this is exactly what we were hoping for when we made the decision to get pet insurance. The app is very easy to file claims and they update you through every step of the process. Very impressed and very relied to have such great coverage for our pup.
