Take your pet to the vet first then we will give u insurance.

I signed up to get my pet insurance because I cannot afford to take them to the vet without it. Then after signing up and getting the policy numbers, I am told that I have to take them to the vet, to have a checkup and submit the health records for the last 6 months.\ That was the point of getting insurance. I can't take them to the vet without it. I feel like what you're saying is. Yes, we will give you insurance as long as we can make sure you're not going to need to use it. So, thanks, but no thanks, I will not be going through with any of this. I'm going to cancel all of it at my earliest convenience. Thank you.

Excellent experience

The process of enrolling and choosing the best plan that met my pet’s and family need went smoothly with the assistance of the rep on the phone. I wish I could remember his name. He was very helpful, caring and knowledgeable. Thank you!

Did not disclose exam requirement!

Nowhere during the process of selecting coverage did it mention I would need a medical exam performed on my dog. Exams aren't free. You require I pay for an exam that amounts to several months of insurance. I am not doing that. My dog is young and healthy, so I was on fence about getting any insurance at all. This requirement just made the decision easy not to.
