Great customer service, making claims is a hassle though
Amazing people and super helpful every time I have to call customer service but I feel like the claim system could be easier on the pet owners.

The only reason I give it a "5" overall (I would have scored less but I'm being generous) is that my premium raised $30/month
I recommended this insurance to so many of my "pet parent" friends. I was paying $67 month for my dog who was 1+ when I first started my insurance plan. This month (my dog was 3 in May) my premium went up to $93/month! The company said it was because they have their own costs in addition to my dog being a pure breed and over 3. I find this enormous increase in premium outrageous and canceled my full coverage. I now only carry the "major medical" plan for $45/mo. I would not recommend Nationwide any longer; or at best recommend it for a young puppy/dog and then warn my friends that the premium will skyrocket with no warning when their dog turns 3.
