Had Nationwide for many many many…

Had Nationwide for many many many years. For no reason at all dropped my coverage on my two mini schnauzers - one 2 at the time and the other 4. Left me in a BIG bind. You have to have your head examined to insure with this "is not by your side" insurer.

It was great till it wasn’t anymore…

It was great till it wasn’t anymore… They changed my pets coverage last year cos the plan I had them under no longer was offered. Now they don’t cover anything, wellness or injury it never gets covered, they play games and won’t notify you if there’s a request for information so you have to constantly be on them. They denied coverage for one of my dogs that had a UTI citing that because he had an ear infection as a pup it was a pre existing condition. My other dog had to have emergency surgery, of almost $7000 I got back $800. In my opinion they are borderline scammers
