I was not impressed with the premium increase, since last year.

My last claims were not properly handled. I was never contacted regarding missing information from my claim. I work in the insurance business, and take pride in following up with my policyholders, in cases such as mine. Took almost 2 months to get my claim settled.

takes too long to pay claims

I generally don't have a problem with how much of the claim is paid, but I think its ridiclous that it takes 3-4 weeks to pay them. I have to pay the vet out of my pocket first which is fine. But then to wait that long to be paid back is not. I have large dogs - mastiffs - that is the reason I got insurance on them. Everything that is done to them is expensive.
