Great quality as usual
I am so happy that I got insurance on V. She had a ruff couple of months. First her stomach issues & then her spay.

Great service
Nationwide has been providing us great service and quick review and response times. Explanation of benefits are always easy to understand and when I’ve called with a question they were kind, easy to understand in their response and made sense. Claims are easy to processed, reviewed quickly and paid timely when applicable.

Excellent, prompt service.
I was very dubious about spending the money on pet insurance. Next to my dog, best decision I made.

Protecting your pet without going bankrupt
I signed up for VPI when Lucky was 6 months old. He is now 12. Overall, I’ve been delighted to partner with what is now Nationwide. The customer service reps I’ve dealt with are highly experienced professionals who truly are “animal” people. Whenever I hear that friends have just gotten either a dog or cat, my first response is “don’t forget pet insurance” and I do recommend Nationwide.
(BTZW: I answered “no” to the question about helpfulness because I respected the advice of the person that told me about VPI).
