Nationwide | Pet Insurance Review

I've been with Nationwide\VPI for 28 years. Best Pet Ins available.

I have been a loyal customer for over 3 years. I had coverage on 2 dogs. Everything my BullMastiff has ever needed, (besides shots and meds) isn’t covered. We’ve always heard , sorry it’s her breed, that’s hereditary, she has too many wrinkles, now that will be a preexisting condition. I Paid a small fortune for 2 dogs & barely got back $400 last year. My boxers insurance plan, just came up for renewal today, I supposedly had the Good plan. They raised her rate “”28”” bucks a MONTH!!! That’s ALOT.... I was told they raised her rate because of her age. Really, she’s “”” 3 years old”” !!! We have never had any major claims on her, The normal year shots and heartworm/flea pills. She had Kennel cough, as a pup at about 6 weeks of age. She’s now considered a pre existing condition, for anything upper respiratory!! Too much in the fine print that isn’t covered, that you don’t know about ,until you submit your claim. Pay very close attention to your yearly premiums. I would have never noticed it went up, but I got a alert from my credit card provider, saying a nationwide charge had been approved. When I looked at it, it wasn’t my normal charge per month. I’m beyond frustrated & just cancelled both of my policies. I have wasted too much money here.

This insurance pays too slow. I have been saying it for years but still no change. They should pay the bill upfront instead of reimbursement just like human health insurance. Yes it is good to have if you have the money to pay upfront but if you dont they are not much use.

Claims are process very quickly and alway do follow up emails to see how our pet is doing. And, always making sure we get the treatment our pet need.

I had VPI insurance on my pets the last few years, then Nationwide after they merged. The transition was very smooth and I still get the best service. Everyone is always so kind, professional, and helpful. I recommended you to the Cat Hospital of Portland when they asked who I have covering my kitty, Count Flufferton. They were glad to hear that they had other options to recommend to their clients. I couldn’t say enough positive things about Nationwide!
