Save yourself

I would give them 0 stars if I could. I know what I am talking about too since I worked in the insurance industry for 24 years as a Certified Insurance Fraud Investigator. Terrible insurance Nationwide raised my dogs rates from $66 to $110 per month (almost double) with no claims other than yearly visits. So in other words my three year old cocker spaniel didn't even have anything wrong with her-this was not precipitated by a claim. I had heard from others they did this, but didn't cancel until they did it to me. NOW my dog is older (yes at three years old) , and I cannot get other insurance without higher rates. Please people do yourself a favor and do NOT use Nationwide. I know people sometimes give bad reviews and are not being reasonable, in this case, not so. Save yourself from this company.

Easy claims!

The claims are very easy to submit, quickly turned around, and the EOBs are easy to understand.
