No transparency/ Medical Review Process

No transparency, 30-day money-back guarantee doesn't help at all, The medical history review was completed after 30 days and resulted in the exclusion of almost everything from coverage. At that point I had already been charged for two months (pay attention to payment method, I didn't know/saw that once you sign up you are agreeing with the autopay) , and when I called to request the cancellation, I was told that I was going to be reimbursed only for the proportional period of the month. How can we be satisfied with an insurance that we don't know what will cover or not? the medical review wasn't reflecting my pet health conditions and vet reports, for example: Periodontal (dental) disease, they noted that it was not be covered unless my pet had an anesthetic dental cleaning performed, however during the visit to vet it was confirmed that my pet teeth was clean and not needing anything, so should I put my pet under anesthesia for something that he doesn't need? Disappointed.

Frustrated and Disappointed in refund experience.

This is the first time that I’ve had a negative experience. I’ve been using MetLife Pet for about six years now and have not ever had an issue with my reimbursement. I was told by three separate associates when I called that Zelle was experiencing issues with the Citibank side of things. While, I understand that this is outside of your immediate control as this is your third-party partner, communication to your customers especially your long-standing ones that this could be an issue could’ve allowed me to proactively updated my payment method to avoid this and my late reimbursement. Additionally, while I had updated information on one side of your company. It did not communicate with the third party side, and I wasn’t told until later that my addresses on file were incorrect. Your customer service agents on the phone have been friendly and warm, but unfortunately have not been able to give me any direct answers. They’ve tried to help support me and getting my refund in a timely manner and to the correct address but still cannot guarantee to me or answer to me where to expect to receive my refund. I emailed a couple of days ago and have received no response which also seems to be out of character for you all, but I’m really disappointed with how this interaction is going so far, and I’m frustrated that I have not received an answer. Not receiving this reimbursement or at least an actual answer in a timely manner, as I normally do, has created a negative impact and disruption on my day-to-day life. I hope that we can get this rectified ASAP and that you learned from this experience and better communicate with your customers so they can prevent these frustrating situations from happening in the future. I’m hoping that this is the one off thing and understand that mistakes do happen. I have for a long time recommended MetLife Pet to every friend and family member and client that I work with when they inquire about what pet insurance I use. However, if this trend continues, I may need to begin looking into other companies to use and recommend.

Pretty solid experience

The chat function was very helpful. Was a bit of a pain needing to provide more docs but once I did the refund was very quick. By the next day if not the same afternoon.

Simple and Fast Process

Here’s a simple, positive review you could use: I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to add pet insurance. The process was quick, straightforward, and only took a few minutes. Everything was clearly explained, and I was able to get my pet covered without any hassle. Definitely a smooth and stress-free experience!
