“I have had the same services approved and paid for for the last 5 years and this year I get push back and no one has follow through to help me out. I have talked to about 5 customer service reps since March which agree with me that my claims should be approved and still no resolution.”

“If someone were to ask me about Pets Best my response would be "Eh". The insurance is adequate. It covers most of the big ticket items. What's wrong with pets best? They take FOREEEEVVVEEEERRRRR to process anything (except payment, they get that through promptly every time). They also seem to hunt down any loophole they can find. One of my dogs had to have a tooth extracted because of a growth (this cost me $1200). Pets best denied the claim because my dog hasn't had her teeth cleaned under general anesthesia in the past 13 month. First of all, my dog got her teeth cleaned 6 months ago, she's just super chill and doesn't need anethesia. Second of all, per our vet, the growth had nothing to do with the cleanliness of her mouth. Let's revisit the prior statement though that she did in fact have her teeth cleaned 6 months ago. Moral of the story, if you can wait weeks on end to get reimbursement, want insurance that requires you to take unnecessary risks with your pets well being and will still look for any possible loophole to avoid paying out, pets best is great. I for one will begin looking for a new insurer, preferably one that doesn't require me to take unnecessary risks like anesthesia for routine things.”

Our periodontal coverage essentially works like this: From age 0 to age two, there is no teeth-cleaning requirement in order to have periodontal coverage. In other words, as long as periodontal disease is not pre-existing to the policy when your pet is age 0 to age two, your pet is not required to have a teeth cleaning to have periodontal coverage. For pets aged 3+, Pets Best will verify with your vet a teeth cleaning was done in the previous 13 months. As long as that teeth cleaning comes through with no signs or symptoms of periodontal disease, your pet will have coverage if this develops. This cleaning must be done under general anesthesia. Additionally, any pre-existing periodontal disease will not be eligible for coverage under our policy. Your pet must be free of all dental disease at time of sign up. You dont have to follow these guidelines but in turn there wont be coverage for these issues. We hope your pet is doing better.

“I have 3 dogs that I insure with Pets Best. I also purchased the additional coverage for wellness for one of my dogs. While at my yearly checkup to get vaccinations my vet who did a very through exam noticed a lump on my dog. It was negative after a biopsy was completed. I filed a claim for benefits only for the vaccines and visit for them. It took many weeks to get a response. Very slow poor service. Then my claim was not paid properly. Pets best tried to rip me off and say the exam was not covered since it was for a mass. Uh no my policy covered or so it says a wellness exam with vaccines and that is what this was. It just happened that my vet being responsible found the mass. . In looking further Pets Best did not even cover all the vaccines. I have called and discussed. I was told that it will be reviewed and will be several more weeks. I am considering canceling this coverage as this company seems to look for ways not to pay. If I had had the vet bill it separately then there might not have been a question. So beware of this company. They are slow to pay and they seem to look for ways not to pay.”

“My dog had a condition that pop up over the course of the years I had with the insurance and they deny covering it and chalk it up to pre-condition when it wasn’t. They just don’t want to reimburse or actually review the case. Waste of money. You’re better off just making a payment plan with your local veterinarian than shelling out money that going nowhere toward your pet insurance.”

“Over the past year, we have noticed that completing a claim takes no less than a month. Pets Best used to turn claims around within 10 days or so. It is difficult to comprehend why there has been such a dramatic change in this. I am wondering if my confidence in Pets Best has taken a hit because of this and the thought has come to me that maybe Pets Best is struggling financially, thus the delays in payments of claims.”

“I am feeling almost betrayed. I have been paying a LOT of money every month for years. I understand that my first need of your service had a deductible to pay. But, I feel the rest still fell short. Plus, it took a very long time to get a return. When your pet is in emergency need and you are counting on your insurance to help you keep them alive, you need MUCH more and Much more timely coverage for the amount I paid. I was getting ready to put my other young pup on your coverage, but I have found better elsewhere.”

“My dog has many medical issues andi submit my claims, but since don't issues were there "before" I signed up for your insurance plan, I was not able to claim anything. I spent over $8,000 on my dogs medical issues, and I might have gotten $800 back.”

“we have insured our pet with Pets Best for over ten years. Now he is ill and needs this insurance and we ae having extreme difficulty in resolving administrative issues. Communication with Pets Best is difficult and we a becoming really frustrated. No payment has been received either and there seems to be no human available for discussion and problem solving conversation.”
