Everything about your program is really fine except the extremely large renewal charge made this year.

The service is fine. Your people are helpful. The method for submitting claims is very easy to use. BUT your 2nd year increase is really a bit over the top. If that kind of a change happens again yo can be assured I will not renew with you the next year.

Fileing a claim

The service rep I spoke to very helpful and friendly and she tried to do th3 best she could to help, but the problem was with the online form that would not allow me to submit. I’ll try again later or just use mail.

Great process

The process has been fantastic in working with Nationwide. Our beautiful vizsla has an injury that required a lot of follow up appointments and they made the submitting claim process easy and seamless.

Reimbersment

This company is a hot mess. They say the claim process is 30 days but mine was 4 months and i was just told they needed an additional 30 days. My claim was for dental cleaning and blood test. I enrolled in june of 2018 and gave them all the info on vets at that time. It wasn't until I submitted a claim did they say they needed additional info and had me calling to get the info they were suppose to have gotten back in June. They received the info and I was told 30 days. Now I'm told an additional 6 weeks. This is really ridiculous. I would recommend another company. My feeling is that nationwide delays to make reimbersments
