Coverage seems good-BUT ——

Coverage seems good. However, I had to fill in the form at least three times and at the end said something went wrong and would have to try back later. I am not pleased that two months, actually more than two months payment will be taken and the next month must be paid in addition to the two months. This is not like renting a house, it is an insurance policy for an animal.

The representative was wonderful but service after my contact with her could be better

The representative was wonderful. I’m just not sure what happens next. I got an email saying someone was contacting my vet. That’s good but nothing since then but I think a payment was charged against my card. So do I have insurance or not. Better communication after the initial contact would be nice

The website is too difficult

The website is too difficult. You asked me at the start what my HOME zip code is. Then at the end when I wanted to purchase, you asked me my BILLING address, but I couldn't edit the ZIP code and I had to hit back, back, back all the way to the start to change the Zip code to my billing Zip code. They should have an option on the check-out page to change the billing zip code.
