I called specifically to request a realignment of my payment date, which I was told was made. It wasn't, and my payment was withdrawn anyway. It's disappointing that after speaking directly with customer service, I can't depend on something as simple as that being done correctly.

Hi Eric, thanks for your time and feedback. Rest assured we’re continually focused on enhancing efficiency and reducing the time it takes to process claims. Claims are processed in the order they’re received. Claims take an average of up to 15 days to be completed. However, more complex cases, depending on if additional information is needed, take up to 42 days currently. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee specific claims outcomes, or the payment of a claim, until all information has been received and reviewed. Once a claim has completed processing, we send out an Explanation of Benefits via email to the Policyholder. If the Explanation of benefits shows a reimbursement for the claim, the first page of the Explanation of Benefits advises how the reimbursement will be sent, via claim check or direct deposit. The Explanation of Benefits also advises to allow 5 to 7 days for a claim check to arrive, or if the Policyholder has signed up for direct deposit to allow 5 to 7 days for bank processing time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your patience. We hope you have a good day. – PF

It has taken several attempts to file a claim and I even had to get the Vet to fill out an invoice and send canceled checks. The reimbursement for the claim is just not worth all of the trouble. Pet insurance in my experience with this is just not worth it.

Hi Carmen, thanks for your time and feedback. 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 will 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. 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. You can find your Wellness Schedule under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. Policyholders can request to change or remove the wellness endorsement within 30 days prior to their renewal (anniversary date with us) for the effective date of their renewal, or within 30 days after their renewal for the effective date of their renewal, as long as they haven’t taken their pet to the veterinarian from their renewal date to the date they make the request. If you’d like, we’d be happy to go over your claims and coverage concerns with you. You can contact our Customer Care Team by calling (877) 738-7237.

Horrible customer service. It’s terrible that they make you wait 42 days before they get your claim reviewed and paid. Imagine paying for insurance and having to shoulder heavy costs for over a month while waiting for them to even look at your claim? Their customer service reps on the phone are also awful.

Hi Paul, thanks for your time and feedback. 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.

I legitimately have anxiety about submitting claims; I submit them & barely anything ever gets covered. I pay nearly $1k a year for my dog’s coverage, and I can count less than $200 sent back to me in reimbursements despite thousands of dollars spent on my dog’s vet care. The whole experience has me so disillusioned, I’m losing faith in pet insurance at large.

Expected better. PetsBest denied my claim for surgery, stating my puppy has a preexisting condition. I picked him up at 8-weeks old, and the first mention/diagnosis was several months after my policy waiting period had ended. This should have been covered. This surgery would have satisfied my annual deductible to help cover additional claims, however because of the denial, I'm still paying the full cost for all vet bills. Pets Best had significant delays processing my initial claim but gave me only 2-weeks to gather documentation and medical records, contact my vet, and submit an appeal. The appeal process is extremely slow (90 days), and conveniently I will not have an answer until after my policy renews and the annual deductible resets. Feels more like a scam than a benefit. I could have saved the $100/month as an emergency fund than pay an insurance company to deny me... Unfortunately, I can't even change insurance companies now because these conditions would become pre-existing. I wish I had just gone with Truepanion.

Terrible experience. The itemized receipt was submitted long time ago. It takes several weeks to review, and eventually the reviewer just picked some irrelevant item from the receipt and decline the reimbursement. I clearly stated in the claim title, it is for teeth fracture, and there are many dental related items on the receipt. They only picked the ‘fecal test’ to say it isn’t covered by the policy. WTF?
