Simple and efficient process at a stressful time

I didn't expect the process of submitting a claim to be so simple. I used my phone and took pictures from the paperwork or online. This was particularly important at such a stressful time as Sam was very sick. The submissions took literally a couple of minutes, they were processed promptly and I received the money back with no further questions asked. I have had the insurance policy for years and was lucky enough not to have to use it before now, I'm thankful I chose Nationwide all those years ago.

Great Help for an Old Dog

I really like being able to file a claim over the Internet. This seems to have made the turn around time a lot faster. These days, I know it must be quite a job to manage all the claims you must have and I do appreciate your help with Shumba. He's an old dog, and I for one, will not forsake him in his infirmities. It's a comfort to know you won't either. Thank you for your hard work and assistance.
