Misleading and disappointing

Difficult to say anything positive about the experience I’ve had with Nationwide thus far: it seems that each time I call to speak with someone the person is unprofessional and the connection is always poor. I never really get straight answers to my questions. Furthermore the coverages and the EOB we get for our claims don’t make a whole lot of sense. Things that should have been connected aren’t, and we find ourselves having to chase our vet office for additional documentation and information. Not a simple claim process, and overall disappointing.

You guys make claims painless and easy!

I always recommend Nationwide Pet Insurance to my friends with pets because all my experiences have been so easy! The last thing you want to deal with when your pet is sick is a pesky insurance company and you guy are the opposite! I always get my money within 7 days :)

The major medical plan is awesome

Recently had back to back illness with my doxie and the major medical plan paid 100 percent after my deductible! When on a budget that is a great help not having to be concerned about getting prompt care for your dog. w4dxb
