MetLife | Pet Insurance Review

I have submitted claims for my cat's meds in the past and was reimbursed. Now they are saying it is predisposed and they will not pay me. Also they are becoming a lot more strict and time consuming on claims.

We have been taking our goldendoodle to first the Sploot Logan Square location and recently to their Clybourn location ever since we adopted him about a year ago. I looked around for pet insurance and my job offered it through MetLife and decided to take a chance. I have not had any issues with submitting claims and so far, it has been easy, and the process is really quick. I would highly recommend and will be using them again.

So far, this has been really beneficial for my dog! The app is easy to use & its easy to submit a claim. The only downsides are, 1. They didn't tell me that I had to submit a years worth of vet info into the portal or online when we initially get the policy. I had submitted for a claim when we purchased Simparica Trio & it was stating it needed more information, but wasn't listing what was needed. I highly suggest for them to make an update on that process. 2. It takes a long time for them to process claims. I submitted my most recent claim on 11/2/24 and we just received the approval yesterday 12-3-24 & it will take an addtl 2-3 business days for the payment to post to our bank account. But I have not been denied for any claims. We purchased this over the phone & customer service was amazing. I've even had to call in a couple times and the customer srevice both other times were amazing as well, US based customer service too! My husband is a first responder and they give discounts which is also a plus. Overall, I would purchase this again for my dog, but they definitely have a little tweaking to do.

When i asked why they would not cover my $800 invoice from my vet for my dog who was diagnosed with pancreatitis they told me my dog had a pre-existing condition when he did not. I asked why they said that and they said because i told the vet he was sick the with the sicknees the night before. What the ?? Also it took them over a month to determine this bull

The online portal is really easy to use. You can download forms with your details on them and submit them digitally with photos of your soap notes and receipts. Couldn’t be easier. Can take 4-6 weeks for reimbursement but everything is really streamlined on the user end.
