Very happy for fast response on claimes, and the fast reimbursement, and the e-mails on checking how my dog is doing. I thank you so much for your services.

Reimbursement doesn’t seem to be a priority

When I filed my first claim, it took 3 months to get it reimbursed. I had called 3 times, send medical records twice, and they requested additional time once. I had to file an emergence claim a couple of months later, and that claim was paid quickly, along with the first one!
