I am very disappointed with your…

I am very disappointed with your service. I have been a customer for 25 years. Yeas 25 years!!! I went to pay my invoice online on the last day it was due and I kept getting an error that the payment would not go through. Evidently you lock the system once your customer service is no longer available. I needed you at my most low time in my life as I just lost my brother to a tragic death. Paying my insurance was last thing on my mind. I called the next day only to find out that my policy has been cancelled and I would need to apply as a new customer when you clearly saw that I tried to pay it online - I sent an email and screenshot to customer service on the day it was due. Ian beside myself. I complied to reapplying sent my medical records only to find out that I need for my dog to have an annual exam which is scheduled for April. I can not get to my vet beforehand as she is booked. He was due in January and I could not take him due to the passing of my brother. I hope you reconsider your actions. Thank you.

Great! Patrick and Shelly are wonderful!

I am truly blown away by the customer service and my experience with Nationwide. I initially tried signing up with another company, and the rate I received was insane. Thankfully I found Nationwide and am really impressed. Not only is the price great, the agents are extremely helpful and friendly. I spoke with Patrick and Shelly and they were both wonderful!
