I am grateful for my coverage and for how NW Pet supports me and my Pet.

I am very happy with Customer Service, my claim handling etc. My only bit of constructive feedback is related to prescription refills. The two vets that I work with, their software does not print my dog's name on the receipts. This is only for refills, and this results in these get denied. The vets will not change their systems as it is costly.

Worst experience ever

My dog doesn't have any pre-existing conditions and still puts it as a pre-existing condition. The customer service rep couldn't answer simple questions and simply said I don't know.

Claim process still very manual - why not implementing an online form and submission process? Also, I have being trying to update my address and contact information for the claim form for months with no reply so far.
