Pets Best - Tricksters
So apparently, for Pets Best to reimburse cleanings and extractions, my elderly dog has to be put under anesthesia every 13 months for a dental exam. How is that not risky? Not to mention, it’s outrageously expensive and the reimbursement barely covers anything — if at all. What a scam! Shame on you! And Pets Worst would be a more appropriate name for you.
Pets Best - claims
I submitted 3 claims and only one has been processed. Not sure what is going on. Also submitting Chiropractic exams and services, seem complicate.
Pets Best - Unreliable
Extremely dissatisfied with the service. Payments are slow, and the processing of claims is slow. It makes the whole process unreliable and unsustainable for providing health care for my dog.
Pets Best - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY - THEY F-ING SUCK
This is the absolutely WORST company in EVERY AREA - customer service - ease of use - providing guidance on whether a procedure will be covered or not.
I called PRIOR to my cat’s procedure (stomatitis - had to have her teeth pulled) to find out if this is a covered / partially covered / not covered procedure. I was looking for information - Pet’s Best response “We don’t provide any information until we have the COMPLETED paperwork on file.” This means you have no clue if you will receive any reimbursement.
My cat had the procedure completed for her health. Her health is the priority. (Since having her teeth pulled - she is doing excellent)
I submitted the paperwork August 1st - the Vet sent the requested patient file on August 19th and they denied my claim on August 28th. The reason they DENIED the claim - this is priceless- THEY DID NOT RECEIVE THE REQUESTED PATIENT FILE!!!
Can anyone help me understand that logic???
The vet clinic has resent the patient file and I’ve requested they reopen the claim. I’m not holding my breath based on the rudeness of their customer service team.
Again - DO NOT SIGN UP WITH PETS BEST!!!
Pets Best - Don’t waste your money
I filed a claim for my 17 month old AmStaff. She had a skin infection and bumps all over her body. Not only did it take Pets Best a month to process the simple claim, but they also denied every single covered expense. Their reasoning?! They requested ALL of her medical records. Which is crazy because they HAVE all of her records. This was the first time she’s ever been ill. Don’t recommend them at all!!
Pets Best - They make cancellation as confusing as possible to lock you in
I fortunately haven't needed to submit a claim for my pet so I cannot speak to how they process claims. However, the rates went from $29/ month to $73 for my single cat. I cancelled on August 28th via email, received a response on September 2nd that the cancellation was backdated 8/29 and yet was charged 9/8 the full premium amount. I filed a complaint with the Colorado AG due to how the company handles cancellations as both California (where the policy was started) and Colorado (where the policy was most recently active) require companies that have autorenewal, allows customers who sign up online be able to cancel online which Pet's Best doesn't offer. In violation of both CA and CO law.
To rectify this, I ended up calling in, 1st rep was great, I really wish I got her name because she was wonderful. Second rep Erin had an attitude from the get go like she personally was affronted that I wanted to cancel my account, said she couldn't give me a timeline for cancellation. I obviously had questions, because there hadn't been clear communication on the cancellation process but Erin started getting angry and when I asked her why is she so upset when it wasn't her money she started crying which was crazy. I've never dealt with someone customer facing get so emotional, like out the gate started the call with an attitude. I the customer shouldn't have to ask a rep 3 times to check their tone and not to get upset because a customer has questions. Luckily a supervisor was able to join the call with a clear head, immediately processed the refund and the made sure the cancellation was actually completed effective immediately. Will never go with Pets Best again tbh, I don't want to deal with crazy increases and hard to reach/confusing customer service department. Big shout out to the supervisor Sebastian, he knows how to deescalate and communicate clearly with customers. Erin, please take a few days off and reset, it was too early in the morning to already be that worked up about customers. I'm so serious when I say that the day literally just started.
Pets Best - Insurance Scam
My plan covers accident/illness. Apparently, a cancerous tumor being removed isn’t enough to have the funds reimbursed.
This place sucks. They just increased the plan to $200/month but then only pay 1/3rd of the claim? A $900 claim where our dog would have DIED prematurely if we didn’t remove.
Save yourself money and create a savings account. Avoid this Scam.
Pets Best - Many weeks to hear back on my claim
Many weeks to hear back on my claim. Certain explanations of denied claims didn’t make sense. When I called they sent me a form to appeal and I don’t know why the person on the phone couldn’t appeal for me. Frustrated you wouldn’t cover putting a dog to sleep when it’s required by the vet.
Pets Best - It takes a VERY long time for the claim…
It takes a VERY long time for the claim to process and get reimbursed back.
Pets Best - Deny claims for BS reasons and extremely difficult to cancel. Zero stars.
Horrendous experience with this company. My dog got an ear infection for the first time in her life after my policy started. The entire claim was denied because Pet's Best said the condition was pre-existing before policy coverage began. HOW is that possible? She has never been to the vet for an ear infection prior to this. I have been attempting to cancel. I cannot speak to a real person and they are not responding to my emails. Horrible insurer. Do NOT recommend.
