So grateful that I took a leap and changed…

I used to have another Pet Insurance for our fur-daughter for years. So, I confess that I was little nervous when I’ve decided to change and enroll her with Metlife Pet. But now, almost a year later, I am so glad I did! The Metlife Pet team have been always super helpful, claim processing has been easy and super straight forward. Have nothing bad to say about it, just the opposite. MetlifePet: Thanks for being there for us and for helping us to support our Dog Health! We are grateful to have you guys as part of our team!

over changing - no communication

I am submitting this complaint regarding improper billing and failure to resolve an overpayment issue with MetLife Pet Insurance. MetLife Pet Insurance overcharged and withheld funds totaling $540.24, plus an additional $87.63, despite my policy premiums being paid through automatic payroll deductions. My pet insurance payments are deducted directly from my paycheck, and I submitted proof of these deductions after MetLife incorrectly claimed they had not received a payment since September 24, 2025. That statement is inaccurate. I can see the deductions on my paystubs and the payments posted in the MetLife app. At no point did MetLife notify me of a missing payment, which reflects a failure to communicate a billing issue in a timely manner. I first contacted MetLife about this issue on December 4 and was told it would be resolved within 3 to 5 business days. More than a month has passed with no resolution or meaningful follow-up. On December 5, MetLife withdrew an additional $540.24 even though the policy had already been paid through payroll deductions. MetLife also scheduled further prorated withdrawals of over $500 and another charge of over $300 for January 1, which should never have occurred. I canceled my policy solely to prevent additional unauthorized withdrawals. MetLife later claimed that canceling the policy made it harder to resolve the issue, despite having my payment documentation. I made repeated attempts to resolve this matter by phone and email and requested to speak with a manager or supervisor but was not provided access. I spoke with multiple representatives, including individuals named John, Amanda, and Monica, none of whom were able to resolve the issue. Follow-up communications consisted of repetitive questions rather than addressing the documented overpayment. I am requesting a full refund of all overcharged amounts and correction of MetLife’s billing records. This experience has caused me to lose confidence in MetLife Pet Insurance’s billing and customer resolution practices.
