Really Appreciate MetLife

We adopted a Great Pyrenees and immediately purchased wellness and sickness/hospitalization insurance for him. Later, he became ill. We are so glad we had pet insurance. MetLife took about 29 days to pay the claims but they did pay them. We thought initially it would take 5-15 days and were a little frustrated but the contract does give them 30 days. The bill was pretty large and we were very satisfied concerning the insurance coverage payment. There was no fuss; the representatives were very helpful; and we are so glad we purchased the insurance from MetLife. It is a smart decision. We will absolutely continue the coverage throughout our pet's life. I have the experience of having a beloved pet without insurance and he needed each hip replaced and just caught everything - but he was an angel and it cost us a lot over his life. This is why we immediately insured our GP and it's been a great decision. We highly recommend MetLife.

This is a hustle, get another insurance company

Basically lots of double talk and bs. Too many hoops to jump through when its time for them to help, except when they take your money.

Tried multiple companies and spot has been the best

I don't have much to say except that I've been with a few pet insurance companies over the year, and Spot has been one of the most cost-efficient (especially for our older dogs) and has been one of the easiest to process claims with. As expected, new conditions took a little longer to process (a couple weeks) because our vet needed to submit copies of medical records - but otherwise, the claims are started via the website or their app and submitted within minutes, most claims are completed within days, and they're directly deposited to my account. The entire process is smooth and the UI works great.

Everything takes forever and they are very difficult to get ahold of.

They say 3-5 business days but it ends up being 3-5 weeks and then randomly they'll send you an email weeks later that they're missing a document, which more often then not, they already have. And then because they put stuff on hold, once you contact them again, the entire process starts all over again and you have to wait another 3-5 weeks. It's extremely inconvenient/.

very broad pre-existing condition

As a former Petsbest customer, I strongly advise other pet owners to steer clear of this insurance provider. My two-year experience with them was nothing short of frustrating and disappointing. Their definition of "pre-existing" condition is so broad that it will be very difficult for you to get reimbursement. The diarrhea-related claim I submitted took 5 months to process, and at the end I got an email saying my claim was rejected because they did not receive necessary medical information from my vet, while I feel they could at least inform me about this so I could contact my vet for the needed info. I then called to cancel the policy, but the representative of course tried to keep me on the policy and said they could re-open the claim for me. This time after two additional months, my claim was denied again, because it was a "pre-existing" condition as it had happened once before, when my puppy was 2 months old. As such, I was told all future GI-related issues will be considered preexisting condition and will not qualify for coverage. I feel that is very unreasonable, because a two-months old puppy just transitioned out of the breeder's home to me, the diarrhea could be caused by entirely different reasons, such as changing kibbles, environment. And the medical record supported this because my doctor didn't find anything wrong at the time, no parasite or virus after a panel check. The representative I spoke to on the phone, Richard, was also very rude and impatient when explaining the outcome to me. After faithfully paying premiums for two years, I have nothing to show for it. Petsbest's lengthy claim processing times, questionable denial practices, and subpar customer service make them an unreliable choice for protecting your beloved pets. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere for pet insurance.

PetsBest is Best

Could not have had an easier experience working with PetsBest for my Husky. We needed two TPLO surgeries and a lot of medication. PetsBest made it simple to file a claim and cover their end based on my plan. I was given horror stories from friends about dealing with pet insurance companies but my experience with PetsBest could not have been better. Thank you PetsBest!!!
