Hi Kelsey, thank you for your time and feedback. We regret to hear that you’re ready to cancel your pet’s policy. Premium increases happen at your renewal or your anniversary date with us. That’s when we consider your pet to be a year older. The premium at renewal is not based on the claims you’ve submitted, but it is based on your pet’s age, breed, and the cost of veterinary care in your local zip code area. As pets age, their odds of needing medical care increase, as do the odds this care will be more expensive. Premium changes occur annually at renewal to balance these age-related health risks with rising medical care needs. If you’d like, we’d be happy to go over your claim and coverage concerns with you. You can contact our Customer Care Team by calling (877) 738-7237. Our phone hours are Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. MT and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MT. Another option is to chat with an agent by logging into our website and clicking the blue chat icon. We look forward to hearing from you if we can be of further assistance and hope you have a great rest of your day. -AS

There are caps and limitations on what they will cover. They change the coding on the type of claims you are submitting, so they can say you have a pre-condition and then won't cover the claim. I am just throwing money away and increasing my costs every month using this insurance. I'm cancelling.

Hi Mi, thanks for your time and feedback. We regret to hear that you’re ready to cancel your pet’s policy. Unfortunately, in order to provide affordable coverage for our pet parents, any condition that shows signs or symptoms prior to the policy start date or during the policy waiting periods is not covered by the policy. Our Accident and Illness policy waiting periods are 3 days for Accidents, 14 days for Illnesses, and 6 months for Cruciate Ligament events. These waiting periods start from the effective date of the policy. If the condition is not coverable, then the diagnostics and treatments are not covered for that condition. You can find your Policy Information under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. Anytime a Policyholder is in dispute of a claim that has been denied as a pre-existing condition and wants us to review their claim further, the Policyholder can submit an Appeal Form with supporting documentation to us. If you’d like to discuss the specifics of your claim and/or receive an Appeal Form for a claim, you’re welcome to contact our Customer Care Team by calling (877) 738-7237. Our phone hours are Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. MT and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MT. We hope you have a good day. - AS

Very disappointing. Almost doubled the premium for the second year, after declining a claim for gastric problems/treatment from me for my dog. I'm cancelling my dog's policy and looking elsewhere.

Our pets insurance was raised to about 450.00 more a year. With her going blind this last year due to an inherited eye disease and no other major claims it was upsetting. We felt as we were getting punished, when I called in to discuss this and try to get lower payment I was advised to do away with her wellness, raise her deductible, and pay out of pocket for everything else? Vet visits, and everything that goes along with that, teeth, cleaning, pay for her flea and tick medication along with her eyedrops. She needs to take for her blindness. I wasn’t understanding where we were saving money there. I called back in a week later, and spoke to another girl who went over the other package of wellness which of course is more but I think it is what we need now that Jazzy will need her teeth cleaned next year for the first time ever due to a little plaque on her bottom teeth. In speaking to this young lady who explained everything a little clear, as far as what you cover, I still wasn’t happy, but she did get the cost down a little bit by raising my deductible to 200.00. I only wished Jazz didn’t have this pre-existing eye issue. I would have changed insurance companies if it wasn’t for that fact.

not happy with how they listed the benefits and and how it works. I paid over 4000 for the last two years and still paid a lot to vet directly from 300 bills they only contributed 120 per visit. not worth it. if you are living by the edge. but its good to have a back up for worst-case scenario.

Hi Donald, thanks for sharing your thoughts as they are important to us. 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, your pet may use up the benefits quickly depending on what your veterinarian charges for their services. You can find your Wellness Schedule under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. We appreciate your feedback, as it assists us in working towards improved customer satisfaction. We hope you have a good day. -AS

I pay a lot every month and when I finally have a claim Pets Best paid very little of it because of their rules and exclusions. I'm considering ending my relationship with this company.

Hi Jason, thank you for your time and feedback. We understand your concern about faster claim processing and understanding the annual deductible. Keep in mind, that your annual deductible will reset every year at your renewal. Once the deductible has been met for the policy year, your coinsurance rate will still apply but the deductible will be satisfied until your policy renews. Pets Best is actively investing in our people, processes, and technology for our claims workflows to better service our pet parents. We are committed to continued work toward decreasing claim processing time and providing more efficient service and a more positive experience for our members.

Not happy with the coverage because it is inaccurate and my pup had major surgery and now I’m getting the run around of it not being covered. So I’m not happy. I’ll be reporting to the insurance bureau and will be filing a complaint. This is what insurance is for. My pup had a torn ACL. Not covered bc preexisting? How. Totally fighting this.

Claims take a really long time to process. If they are small claims, it’s usually 3-4 weeks. We have had several large claims this year and those take 2-4 months. It definitely makes us shy away from submitting and being out large amounts of money is really rough while waiting for the claim to process. Our other dog has insurance through a different company and all of our claims have been processed either on the spot (within seconds) or the next business day.

Honestly a little surprised how slow the claims process took to be paid. It's over a month since I've submitted a claim and I've heard nothing back besides it's "in process". It shouldn't take this long. I'll be switching providers.
