Use phone pics for claim and stop duplicate premium billing

I would like to see common technology used (mobile phones with cameras) to submit claims. Also I was recently billed twice for my monthly premium. This happened in the same week and I asked customer service to correct it. Instead of reversing the duplicate charge they said they would not bill me the next month. This is not acceptable as I’m on auto monthly billing. I had to then dispute the duplicate change since it was not corrected.

Awesome

I had ASPCA pet insurance for 15 years with my two previous pets and was always satisfied and would have put our new puppy on the same insurance but my employer offered it to all 17000 employees payroll deduction and I am so happy with the claims process and your people I’ve talked to on the phone have been amazing. I am extremely pleased with Nationwide.
