Great help financially!

I joined just in time as my Ollie became ill. I could not believe that within a couple of weeks his insurance company paid!! It was a great help.

Nationwide fairly reviews claims, stands by its policies and fairly processes reimbursements.

Other than one problem I had with communicating with Nationwide, I have been very satisfied with your system and your performance. My communication issue was about a year ago and it was very frustrating, as I couldn't find out from the representative what was additionally needed for my claim to be reviewed again. So that one difficult experience influenced my feelings somewhat. However, overall I am very happy with the policy and have found that Nationwide stands by what it owes according to the policy, it is easy to submit claims, and claims are processed quickly without too many/any follow-up information required. In other words, Nationwide does not put you through a ringer to get what's owing to you. I'm very happy with Nationwide's plans and performance, and am grateful to have it as my beloved dog ages.
