Great customer service!

I couldn't be happier with Nationwide. Great insurance, great customer service and prompt replies and noticeably faster payment than a few months ago. My 11-year-old Greyhound, an embedded fixture in our family, is dying of heart disease and is on numerous medications multiple times a day. I take great comfort in knowing that Nationwide continues to support his ongoing treatment and cover his medications at 90%. It's helped keep Duke alive beyond what even our cardiologist predicted. For that we are thankful.

I truly appreciate how fast my claim was processed.

I am very satisfied with the ease of filing my claim. And even more satisfied and happy because my claims were processed fast and money was sent to me via, direct deposit, with no problems. Keep up the good work!

Overall pay out as expected per policy, sometimes you may need to work to get paperwork and claims completed

Overall, good service, and like that there is available digital communication options. Sometimes it can be a hassle to get claims processed with requests for medical records and then delays of 30-60 days but eventually if you are diligent you will get paid appropriately
