Wonderful but somewhat restricted

I have been using Nationwide since it took over for VPI and have been very happy with the help. It really makes a big difference when you have little issues pop up and think that they are wonderful for that stuff but the wellness plan could be better. I was very surprised when I found out that they only cover so much of tick and flee prevention. I guess any bit helps but I thought that it would be more. I have also referred multiple customers and never received a notification,

Peace of mind

I can't imagine not having the Peace of Mind of Nationwide pet insurance. The customer service is incredible. The only downside is turnaround time on claims. However usually within 30 days I have check in hand. I think anybody that has pets should carry pet insurance and Nationwide in my opinion is the best.
