Our dog needed a gum growth and 13 teeth removed. I filed a claim and it was approved in just a few days. It was a very easy process. And when we lost another dog last year and had to cancel her coverage, Spot was very kind and sympathetic, even sending a condolence card. I believe that Spot truly cares about their customers.

Beware! Unjustly Classifying a Symptom as a Preexisting Condition!

Beware of what you say to your vet! Spot used my non-medical degree words against me to classify my dog's symptom as a preexisting condition! My husband and I adopted a small terrier mix six months ago. We got ourselves set up with Spot Pet Insurance. At the time of the adoption we were not aware that he was suffering from worms, even though he had been dewormed by the rescue. To make a long story short ~ We tried making diet changes before taking him back to the vet. Our little guy has since suffered with multiple bouts of severe diarrhea, which we have discovered was due to different diagnosis of worms over the next few months - tapeworm, round worm, hook worm, and finally giardia. The insurance company seemed wonderful at first - covering treatments after we reached our 500 dollar deductible. Then they did an audit - used my own words at the vet describing his condition against us and declared his diarrhea was a pre-existing condition and took money off of our deductible and are making us start all over. How can diarrhea be determined to be a preexisting condition when it was a symptom of at least four different worms? I find this extremely unfair. Beware of what you say! What is in the vet notes will be used against you even though you do not have a medical degree.
