I am very displeased with my service of…
I am very displeased with my service of pumpkin as a consumer. First of all I was misled greatly when choosing a plan and deciding to use pumpkin for my pets insurance. I was essentially told whatever I wanted to hear, just to get the sale. I was told claims are processed within in 5 business days, both of my claims took 2-3 weeks. Out of both of those claims I paid $1000.00 to providers, pumpkin covered $0.00. Pumpkin used a blanket term of “pre-existing” their favorite term because it automatically makes they pay their consumers nothing. I was told since my pets condition had been dormant, It would be grandfathered in and covered, yet surprise, surprise, that’s not at all what happened. Not to mention the second claim had absolutely zero to do with his “pre-existing” condition. I am a sick and disabled veteran and don’t have the energy to call and deal with this, but shame on you pumpkin and your corporate greed. At the end of the day, I’m just another $160 a month to you, and it’s very disappointing you are doing this to your customers.

Straightforward
My first experience last year was tricky, however having gone through everything before, and knowing what I needed this time and what to request from the veterinarian upfront, this claim, as well as other recent claims, have been very straightforward and handled quickly.

I paid for a policy with Spot Pet…
I paid for a policy with Spot Pet Insurance and when it actually mattered, they denied everything. Every claim I submitted was rejected using an extremely broad “pre-existing condition” argument based on symptoms from years before coverage—even without a confirmed diagnosis. It didn’t matter that the condition progressed or became severe later. The worst part was the euthanasia claim. The policy clearly lists end-of-life expenses as covered, yet they denied it anyway by tying it back to the same pre-existing reasoning. They didn’t even review it separately—just lumped it in with the rest and denied it with no clear explanation. This isn’t just about one claim—it’s how they interpret the policy. If they can link anything to a prior symptom, they’ll use it to deny coverage entirely. At that point, what are you actually paying for? Thank you for the response, but this is exactly the disconnect I’ve been pointing out. You state that you “never want a pet parent to feel dismissed or unsupported,” yet my experience has been the opposite. All claims—including emergency care and euthanasia—were denied under a broad pre-existing condition determination, without a clear, claim-specific explanation. At the same time, I received a templated condolence email and an unsolicited phone call offering sympathy. Given the context, those communications felt disingenuous rather than supportive—especially while the financial impact of these denials remains unresolved. You mention that decisions are based on medical records and documented symptoms. However, the euthanasia records themselves do not identify a specific diagnosis or explicitly link the procedure to a pre-existing condition. Despite that, the claim was denied without a clear explanation addressing that gap. I have already requested these explanations and have either been ignored or provided templated responses like this one.

First time having to make a claim
Our dog had medical issue where she needed treatment. Spot Pet Insurance quickly took the claim and reimbursed us quickly for the claim. We are so thankful to Spot Pet Insurance for taking care of our claim quickly

They used to be good. Not anymore!
They used to be good. But, once you renew your policy, they start doing whatever they can to deny claims, their responses get slower and slower, and their prices go up. They try to relating EVERYTHING to a prior condition in an effort not to pay the claim. My dog recently visited an ER because she had bloody diarrhea. They denied the claim because she has a previous condition of osteoporosis-artheritis. Huh??? No longer happy - at all!

Fees
I think your monthly premiums are fair. I do wish you would be a little bit more faster when pay back customers.
