I would never purchase a policy for any of my pets through this company again.

Our vet has submitted all claims for our dog's appointments. This insurance company has been a problem sense the beginning of August which is 2 1/2 months into our policy year. We have met our deductible right away and the vet is to cover 90% of the costs. Not all costs but most. This policy cost us 111.00 month and we are awaiting on at least $550.00 in reimbursements. The insurance company keeps asking for more of a description from our vet from the appointments and they get sent. However, they claim it isn't enough or haven't received any. The vet has proof of all submissions. This insurance company is delaying reimbursement for absolutely NO reason. We are very dissatisfied. Our vet has informed us that they have never dealt with a pet insurance company that is being this unrealistic.

I appreciate the customer care from Nationwide, more than I could express in one sentence.

Nationwide really cares about their customers and their pets and they helped me in some difficult situations that my dog faced at a young age. They're great to work with and communicate with as well. I believe they do care about the customer and not just getting your monthly premium in their pocket. Thanks, Nationwide!

You somehow mixed up my documents and I had to resubmit one. Then it went great!

Once you found the correct documents, it went great!

Happy to have Nationwide Pet Insurance for Thunder

Having Nationwide Pet Insurance for Thunder gives me piece of mind that if anything happens to him they will be there for us. The wellness policy is a great feature and helps cover the cost of routine vaccinations. Thunder has been under the Nationwide pet insurance plan since I adopted him from the shelter. I recommend Nationwide pet insurance to all pet parents. Thank you Nationwide Pet Insurance for caring about Thunder when he was at the doctor for allergies. The follow up email asking how Thunder was doing pleasantly surprised me. Thank you for showing compassion and concern.
