Excellent turn around time

Your turn around time on claims has been extraordinary lately. I don't know if I am providing more information for you to make a better decision or what, but keep up the great work!

Great customer service

Nationwide has been a wonderful insurance company. Our puppy has had medical emergencies on top of the regular, normal puppy exams and vaccinations. It is very easy to file a claim and within a few days it is usually processed. They even reimburse directly into my bank account! Thank you Nationwide

Highest coverage plan available, but a lot of hoops to jump through

We switched to Nationwide from Healthy Paws earlier this year. Healthy Paws’ premiums were going up a minimum of 25%+ each year and we kept having to downgrade our coverage to keep the plans affordable. Anyway, we chose Nationwide's full coverage plan to pays 90% on just about everything after the $100 annual deductible. While Nationwide has lived up to their end of the bargain to cover 90% after the deductible, I’ve had to argue with them and jump through quite a bit of hoops to make them do so. I would recommend them because I think there is value for their coverage. While the full coverage plan is expensive, it gives us peace of mind knowing we won’t have to worry about how we are going to finance an emergency.

Excellent Service & Value

Nationwide has been so easy to deal with, and they actually seem to care about both a) your pet(s) and b) you, the customer. I’ve been with Trupanion in the past for another pet of ours and the experience was awful. With Nationwide, everything is very simple, straightforward, and I don’t feel that we’re being taken advantage of.
