Very Pleased

We have had PB insurance for over 3yrs. Our experience has always been positive with the normal yearly checkups etc. Sometimes payment took a couple weeks but that is still way faster than human insurance. I was hesitant on some recent large medical claims for my dog who had to have some major expensive testing done to try an diagnose some health stuff. I wondered if they would get bogged down in the system and questioned for every line and every penny spent to try and avoid paying. I was so glad that it went so smooth with PB. I had met my deductible and they paid my 80/20 with no issues on the $6000 claim. Very very pleased with PB insurance.
