Excellent Customer Service

Everyone I have ever spoken too, has always been very helpful and given great customer service. Ease of filing a claim, is so easy. Plus the turn around time for claims getting paid out, has greatly improved. It used to take a long time to see an update, and to receive a check, but now it takes a short time. Thank you. 😊

Great Pet Insurance

Nationwide was extremely helpful on the phone, and the speed with which they process claims is astounding. I submitted two claims and within 48 hours my checks were cut and in the mail. My only complaint is that I received a “how is your cat feeling after his recent vet visit” email... and the recent vet visit was for his remains to be cremated as he had passed at home. The email was probably in response to the first couple of claims, but the timing was about 24 hours after I submitted my claim for his cremation so it hit me at a bad time.

Claim to pay times are very fast!

I've noticed the claim to pay times have gotten significantly faster -- like that! Nationwide has always been a great experience for us, even through the high cost of losing a pet due to illness. We also like that my employer offers Nationwide and we pay via paycheck deduction. Very cool service.
