Unprofessional Conduct
My 9 month old goldendoodle stopped eating and was very ill, the vet sent her to the animal hospital for emergency surgery and unfortunately I had to wait in the waiting room 1pm-6pm and by the time they told me the $7500 price tag, you were closed to call and ask about my coverage. I could not afford to agree to the 8pm surgery but they offered to call Nationwide and verify I had coverage and if they could at least verify an active policy, they'd do the surgery and I could call in the morning about the benefit details. They called. Your representative told them my policy was in danger of being cancelled. So, she came back to say they couldn't do it. So my pet suffered another 24 hours until I could start the process over again and find a new hospital. The policy was in fact in force and paid for another 30 days of the current date. This information was not provided. So, false information was given (confidential information actually because the answer to the question was "yes, that policy is active if you operate today") and it caused me severe stress for me and my animal. I followed up with a call the next day and updated my debit card which had changed. There never was one single day that policy wasn't paid. AND I had not been notified by email or phone or anything. They said that takes 2 weeks as they attempt the card again before they notify the policyholder. Well, why are they telling anyone else before me? This had a very negative affect upon me and is NOT why I bought insurance in the first place. I bought it because I cannot afford an unplanned expense. If the vendor is willing to work with me, your people shouldn't try to sabotage my getting help. I would like someone in management to call me. 512.921.2374.
