Premium Hike is Ridiculous

I am astonished and very disappointed by the huge increase in your Whole Pet with Wellness Plan premium. I used to recommend you to everyone I know but now I cannot do so in good conscience. When figuring in the annual deductible, I will have to pay $120/month.

Coverage of surgery for ingestion

I am largely pleased with my coverage for the recent incident. I have never purchased pet insurance before and did not know what to expect. I was disappointed in the 50% percentage covered of the surgical costs. The purchase of the insurance and the coverage feels like an even expense to reimbursement for this year, though I don't expect anything like this to recur. It leads me to think that insurance is really not necessary and in the long run not worth it. I have two dogs currently insured so I need to rethink this when their policy renewal is due.

So far, not a good place to shop.

I have two claims on Douglass that are over two months old that you have failed to act on. You won't tell me if you will pay them or not. I call on a regular basis on these and all I've gotten is a royal run around. You won't even tell me if you'll pay them or not, and I've become extremely angry and frustrated with you people. You need to settle these claims ASAP or tell me you've denied them. This has gotten to be pure BS.

I'm not sure what we would have done without you!

Parker had many issues in the month of June which required "several" visits to the Urgent Care Vet Center. These visits including all of the tests add up very quickly. This made us very thankful to have our pets covered through Nationwide. I'm not sure what we would have done without you!
