It’s so expensive and doesn’t cover…

It’s so expensive and doesn’t cover nearly enough. My one dog’s monthly rate just increased $60/month with no warning. We’re paying nearly $300/month for one dog and not even half of his last wellness visit was covered.

Bait and Switch scam.

This company is horrible! What a scam they pull. We adopted a Golden Retriever in July 2024. Purchased pet insurance from Spot and chose “Accident Only”. We passed all waiting periods and made monthly payments on time. Cut to March 2025, my dog became injured in the backyard after his morning walk. He was playing and running, and slipped in the wet grass. He then became unwilling to stand and unwilling to walk as the afternoon progressed. We made the decision to take him to emergency vet where radiographs were taken and pain meds and anti inflammatory given. We then submitted a claim which was promptly denied as we didn’t provide an “exact and specific time” for the incident. We immediately appealed and provided ALL of his medical records AGAIN (this was also done at the application time). The appeal was just denied. What an absolute bait and switch this company pulled. Be very aware of doing business with them.
