Terrible website and user experience

he website and overall user experience are very poor. I recently signed up for coverage and understand there’s a waiting period while underwriting is completed. However, I haven’t been able to find clear information about the policy—specifically what is covered and what is not. The links for “pre-existing conditions” and “see full list of exclusions” are not working, so I’m unable to review those details. Additionally, the site makes it difficult to complete basic tasks. I can’t locate my veterinarian using my ZIP code because my vet is outside that area. The dropdown and search functionality are confusing and don’t accommodate this scenario. The list should also be alphabetized to make it easier to use. At this point, it seems I’ll need to contact you separately to provide my vet’s information—something that should be handled directly online.
