“Terrible experience with Pets Best (Pets Worst). Be aware that they take a month or more to pay on regular claims. Secondly, I have pet insurance for the large expenses, so I carry a large deductible. In my case, twice they have denied large claims, after paying consistently for the minor treatment of the condition. When it came time for surgery in both of these cases, they denied the claims forcing me to go through a lengthy appeal process (90 Days). They will look for any reason to deny coverage and in my first case the denial was overturned by a 3rd party and I am in the same process for the second large claim. Do yourself a favor and avoid Pets Best!”

“The wellness coverage is inadequate for what a puppy needs during his first year of life. It does nothing to cover prevention. I also was not happy with the customer service. I was told I did not meet the regulations to speak with an advisor. As one of many customers, we are the bread and butter of Prts Best business. The customer pays the salaries for the employees. If a customer has a need to speak to a supervisor because a situation is not getting resolved at a lower level, the customer should be the priority…not the corporate regulation. I am extremely disappointed so far in my decision to purchase Pets Best insurance.”

Hi LIsa, thanks for your time and feedback. We regret to hear that you’re extremely disappointed so far. We strive to deliver the best customer service experience and apologize if any of your experiences with us have fallen short of that. Our Wellness Endorsements are a set schedule of benefits that are not subject to a deductible or co-pay. Each line item on the schedule is the maximum the policy would pay for that line item for your pet in a policy year. Unfortunately, when your pet is a puppy and requires multiple puppy visits for vaccinations, you may use up all the wellness exam and general vaccination benefits quickly, depending on what your veterinarian charges for their services. To keep the additional premium for the Wellness Endorsements reasonable for our Policyholders, they are not designed to fully cover all your wellness needs, but to assist you with the financial burden of your pet’s annual wellness care by providing some reimbursement of what you paid to your veterinarian for their services.

“Takes at least a month to receive claims and they are ALWAYS much less than the actual vet bill. This most recent claim I took my dog Valerie in for her annual check up vaccinations and to renew her heartworm pills. The bill ended up being $670 of which pets best only reimbursed $100. And their app doesn't work well.”

Hi Carol, thanks for your time and feedback. We regret to hear that you and your daughter will be checking around. When there’s a claim with both medical treatment and wellness items (routine care) on the invoice, we split the claim into two claims and process one for Accident and Illness, and one for Wellness. When you receive an Accident and Illness claim Explanation of Benefits from us, if any of the processing went towards the co-pay or deductible, that means the claimed condition was coverable. If a claim was denied or ineligible for coverage the amount would be in the ineligible column, and the Explanation section would show why it was denied. Keep in mind all Accident and Illness policies have a Policyholder chosen per pet co-pay and deductible that must be met before reimbursing on eligible claims. Understand, we cannot guarantee specific claims outcomes, or the payment of a claim, until all information has been received and reviewed. Our Wellness Endorsements are a set schedule of benefits that are not subject to a deductible or co-pay.

Payments on the policy were on time and yet the one claim that was paid was 10% of the charges. I dropped the plan after six months.

“Your company are habitual liars, your customer service is horrendous, your employees are extremely incompetent, you are NOT "the fastest at paying claims" or "We PAY claims fast" which can be proven from my 8 years of claims with VPI, you just lie to get clients and that is class action lawsuit worthy since you refuse to take those proven lies off your website. For almost every single claim I have since the history of being a client, I have delayed email notices BECAUSE YOUR COMPANY IS TRASH!!! Your customer service has hung up the phone on me purposely. You tried to deny my last claim due to no date or pet name on the invoice which is a complete joke, because Helen Keller could show you where to find that on my invoice. You make the claim process unbearable in hopes that your clients just forget about it completely and you can steal their money. You are the worst insurance company I have ever dealt with and each claim NEVER gets smoother!! You have NOT done a damn thing to improve your claim process time and your direct failure to do so makes your company inaccurate!! You need to make these ratings have a 0 star rating because 1 star is NOT a good representation of how terrible your business actually is!! When will you start posting a well-rounded review and not only 5 star ratings, which I think are most likely fake since your business habits are nothing short of bogus. PetsBest is corruption at the highest level. You need to fire everyone and rehire the proper way and start being a credible company. Do better, because right now you aren't worth dirt on the bottom of someone's shoe!! I'll continue to make sure potential future clients know exactly how your 0 star rating business is actually ran, since your website is beyond misleading and I will do this until I actively see a significant change in my personal experience with your trash dumpster of an insurance company. So you can start by posting this FACTUAL, RAW, REAL and ACCURATE business review of PetsBest!!!...but then again, you won't because you are lying and deceitful!!”

“Do not buy Pets Best insurance. They take outrageously long to pay and, over the years they have found very creative ways to avoid paying claims. If preexisting conditions didn’t prevent us from switching I would have left them long ago. My first bad experience was with dental claims. I was informed that my policy didn’t cover that. I was also told that all injuries to the same type of body part are combined even if the injuries are unrelated and occur at different times. Combined injuries are only covered up to the policy limit. So, I was told, if my dog has totally unrelated, leg injuries, even if they’re years apart, the bills will be grouped together and only paid to the policy limit. Their agents are lovely and will make one feel that their being treated well, but the bottom line is that their job appears to be to deny coverage..”

Hi Tom, thanks for sharing your thoughts as they are important to us. We’re glad to hear the agent you worked with was very patient, very helpful, and very accommodating. We strive to deliver the best experience and apologize if any of your experiences with us have fallen short of that. We do offer a Vet Direct Pay option, where once the services are rendered the Policyholder can submit the Veterinarian Reimbursement Release Form along with the itemized invoice to us as a claim for processing to reimburse the veterinarian on an eligible claim. However, the Veterinarian must be willing to sign the form along with the Policyholder, and we don’t have a list of Veterinarians who are willing to sign the form. The form is not a guarantee of benefit as we can’t guarantee specific claims outcomes, or the payment of a claim, until all information has been received and review. There is still claim processing time involved of up to 42 days currently, so the Veterinarian must be willing to accept a delay in reimbursement, if the condition is coverable. Policyholders can find their Veterinarian Reimbursement Release Form under Documents and Forms in their account on our website. If you’d like, we’d be happy to go over your claim processing concerns with you. However, we are unable to go over specific information here, so you’ll need to contact us either by phone or by chat, so we can verify your information on a recorded line.
