Nationwide is really on your side

I sent you a letter and I posted a very long positive tribute to how truly wonderful you were as an insurance company when our Heather got cancer and died. You were amazing and compassionate. I know since that time my girlfriend Maureen Riley has become a new customer. When it comes to my pets I cannot day enough positive wonderful things about your company. Totally awesome plus 10 I sent a wonderful, heartfelt thank you on line. I hope it was forwarded and all the parties received a positive acknowledgement for being a Great company and that is not something you ever hear in corporate America

Thank Goodness for Nationwide Pet Insurance

When we got our sweet Rebel in June we knew she had to be insured. The shelter and our vet were pushing a different company, which seemed great because insurance would kick in immediately. Nationwide was a perk offered through my work, with a small discount, the drawback was it wouldn't kick in for one month. But in comparing the two and researching others we went with Nationwide. Not just for the small discount and auto payments out of my check but because they cover more with a smaller deductible than their competitors. Unfortunately our baby girl Rebel got very sick recently, she had to go through a series of expensive tests and medications before we found out what was wrong with her. Luckily Nationwide covered 90% of our costs (after deductible). I couldn't be more thrilled!! You can't imagine how relieved I am that Nationwide was by our side.
