I didn't expect this to be so seamless

I honestly didn't expect that submitting claims and receiving payments for my dog would be so easy. My puppy has had several unexpected vet visits (and expenses), and I've not had a problem with any of my claims. I appreciate how seamless the process has been, from submitting claims online to receiving payments and directly depositing into my bank account.

Good care

I have a few issues with Ferdinand and brought him to my vet they did all necessary tests and my baby boy is wonderful. I was fully reimbursed, it took some time but nation wide came through. Couldn’t be happier, and my puppy is great

Excellent and timely service. Always rapid processing for payment.

Very easy to work with and rapid payments. We would recommend and have recommended Nationwide to friends and others as a good company to insure their pets.

Thankful for pet insurance. Claims take too long to process and or receiving reimbursement. Insurance increase is too pricey.

Despite multiple attempts made by our vets office to file the same claims. It appears they are being lost. I never use to experience this problem in the beginning but over the last 8 months. We (myself and Vet office) are resending claims multiple times because "you claim you're not receiving them." I live outside city limits and this does not make it very easy to make myself available. However, I can assure you all claims are being processed by fax at checkout after each visit. I can also understand the insurance increase for Milee our boxer, with sensitive stomach and other issues. But to increase Jade too (border collie mix) whom is seen only once a year for routine check ups (healthy dog and has no health issues) Your policy information says your giving us a discount for our 2 pets. I'm not so sure about that either. I believe the insurance increase took place because Milee has health issues and nothing more. But If we drop Jade from the insurance we lose the supposed discount. That sounds a bit off and ridiculous.
