outrageous price increases

Each year you increase your prices , especially on older animals. This year however I have received a letter saying nationwide is requesting up to a 57% increase. That is outrageous! I’m sure senior animals and those with pre existing conditions are the ones you go after as they can’t get insurance elsewhere. That is a terrible thing to do and I would not recommend nationwide on this fact alone. As your pet ages it has health problems the health insurance you have paid into for years will then become unaffordable

Willhelm is doing fine. Hehas an allergen that is bothering him until we isolate the issue.

The response and support from VPI has been very helpful. Processing claims is quick and convenient. Thanks!

Great

It was nice not worrying about such a large vet bill. Getting the reimbursement was a great help in taking care of my dog properly.

Claim paid

This was the first time submitting a claim (or 3) and I was very worried at first about it being denied or taking forever and having to fight with it after all the horror stories I've heard regarding pet insurance, but none of this was the case. Claim was easy to send, paid in a timely manner and eob's/claim progress were easy to follow.
