My first claims experience

I had my first experience making a claim for my cat Treasure. The claims were as expected and processed quickly. I have the claim form in my file with my vet so they can send it in for me. Thank you.

SPOT review...

We have been choosing insurance for our toy poodle Rosie for a very long time. We decided to choose the insurance company SPOT. Compared to other insurances, this company is better andalso cheaper; has a 90% coverage: accidents, illnesses and plus the health of the puppy. We have already had two complaints about our visits to veterenary clinic and insurance covered it, we are absolutely delighted. The claims were reviewed and reimbursed in a short time! We are very glad that we have chosen this insurance!

Thank you for being such a great asset...

Thank you for being such a great asset to pet owners. The service is timely and the follow through is wonderful. If you have questions the staff is easily accessible. The payments are direct deposited and go right into my bank account. I highly recommend this company. Again, thank you for serving us.

New pet insurance

I didn't create any claims yet - just decided to purchase it for my beloved cat as he is getting older and you can never be too sure. I have read some great pet parent experiences about Spot Pet Insurance and hope I get the same. It was relatively easy to navigate the website and I loved how transparent the conditions are. I did some research and decided this was the one as I live in NYC and things can get pretty expensive; I purchased the annual one time payment because that's just how I prefer to pay. I hope I won't ever have to use it but just in case I do, I'll be prepared.
