Nationwide's coverage has been a 10

I've been with Nationwide for years and I am very pleased with the coverage. Claims are handled in a timely manner and reimbursements have always been paid fairly. I will definitely use Nationwide for our next pet.

Nationwide is The Best

I’ve never had a claim problem with Nationwide. I recommend it every time I go to the vet or have a conversation with friends who have pets. We recently lost our sweet boy to feline leukemia. Every claim I filed was promptly considered and paid if benefits were available. The painful passing of our pet companion, then filing a claim was done with ease. Thank you so much.

too long to get reimbursement

You take way to long to process a claim. Taking 4 weeks to receive your reimbursement on a claim that is direct deposit is ridiculous. It should only take 7 days at the most to process a claim and get your money back. You are consistently this long on every single claim I make. Not sure why it takes so long, but I know other companies that don't take as long. For a claim that is a lot of money, that is too long to get your money back. You need to do better.

Nationwide helped me save my dog

My 7 year old Rottweiler was not doing well. He had constant diarrhea from Pancreatitis and was also coughing from a lung infection. The coughing was continuous followed by throwing up stomach acid for 48 hours straight. Nationwide helped me pay for xrays, ultrasound, various tests, and all the medicines needed to bring my dog back to health! They even help me pay for the ongoing prescription diet to treat his pancreatitis! Every claim has been paid quickly, without any issues. Best insurance I have seen.
