Brutal premium hike after one year!

We purchased pet Insurance with Spot last year shortly after adopting a cat. The rate was good $182 and claims were promptly paid. After one year in which we had claims that approximately matched our premium they have boosted our premium to $500!!! Not sure why this drastic increase in price came about and i couldn’t understand the woman who took my call at the call center due to her heavy accent. I’m extremely disappointed in Spot Insurance do to our > 150% rate increase…

Claim nightmare

When submitting a first claim, Spot keeps insisting on requiring health records for our cat from 1/1/2024 to the present. This cat is a 14 month old rescue with no health history before 10/2025. We supplied all heath records we have from the rescue shelter and our new vet, but Spot refuses to process claim. We are now trying to cancel account with Spot and are running in to a new series of road blocks.

Nightmare claim process

We adopted a 13 month old cat from a rescue shelter in Oct 2025, established a vet account with an initial exam and then purchased insurance from Spot. In late Nov 2025 we had a return visit to the vet for a minor medical issue. We submitted an online claim, mainly to see how the process worked since the dollar amount was only $81. Well, weeks later we receive an email stating that health records from 1/1/2024 are required. We had sent all records available already during the claim process, and being a rescue, the oldest records were from Sept 2025 when the cat was processed by the rescue center. I called the Spot help line trying to explain that there are no health records prior to being rescued. I was assured that this information would be passed on and the claim would be processed. Several days later we get another email reiterating the requirement for health records from 1/1/2024 to be supplied or the claim would be denied. At this point we cancelled the policy. If health history is required for the first claim, the information required should be part of the policy application not months after paying and discovering that Spot does not know how to process a first claim for a rescue with limited health history.
