Unexpectedly Easy

Nationwide has made the claim process as easy as pie. I open the VitusVet app on my phone, create a new claim, fill out the needed information, and days later my reimbursement funds are in my bank. Even transferring the funds is easy with JP Chase. I titled this review “Unexpectedly Easy” because I almost didn’t believe that I would get reimbursed as easily as I have been when I first signed up. I thought Nationwide might nitpick some of our puppy’s office visits or something that nightmare insurance companies usually try to pull, but I have had no issues what so ever getting my claims accepted. I am extremely pleased so far with Nationwide and have suggested to many friends and family that they get a policy for their pets.

Very fast response..! Thankful for your services!

So grateful for Nationwide and the coverage they provide for our beloved pet. Unfortunately we've had to use it a few times already with Stella, but it's been a lifesaver (literally) for our family.

Claim service is average at best, slow in responding to inquiries.

I requested a status on additional information we sent in and never got a response.
