No different than any other. Over priced by a lot! They do pay quickly once you figure out their cumbersome site. They do not allow a fax or photo by email as some do. They not doubled, not tripled, but now want to make my future payments 4 TIMES HIGHER the year before. I feel that is very unfair as my dog was recently diagnosed with diabetes. Before the increases were minimal…but you never know. The excuse they gave me is that “you know, everyone’s cost has gone up”. Right…but 4 times higher than the year before and they have included the increase for the cat that is healthy. The date below is not accurate, but they don’t give me an opportunity to be more specific regarding this issue.

They renewed a pet policy on a deceased pet, while my pets who were still alive the policy was not renewed. When I went to file a claim, they said they could not assist me as the pet I was claiming had no active policy. This happened two years in a row, and as a result I have not been able to file any claims after obtaining pet policies for three different animals. When I asked for a record, they said that the record for my call speaking with a representative was not available. After providing confirmation of payment, I was still denied claim coverage because the customer care representative renewing my policy for the year submitted it for the wrong animal. I am extremely frustrated with the way I have been treated, and would never recommend Nationwide pet insurance to anyone looking for a respectful and accurate insurance representative. Not only will I not receive a refund for the annual policy that they incorrectly filed for the deceased pet, but I am unable to file claims for the veterinary bills that I was submitting in good faith for my living pet. When speaking to the representative to fix the issue, she said I did not understand what she was explaining to me. It was an exceptionally rude experience and she hung up the phone without a thank you or goodbye.

You nickle and dime your customers - even long-term customers yet raise our rates every year blaming it on veterinary charges going up. This is a joke and a scam

I would give negative stars if I could. The absolute WORST!!!! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! My mother purchased a policy for puppies. Within less than 60 days afterwards, my mother passed away at the end of March. It took until June to finally gain access and for MetLife to grant me the authority to her account to get the policy transferred to my name so that I could submit claims for services provided for the puppies. The process of submitting claims is not easy. You will need to be sure that your veterinarian gives thorough soap notes as well as an itemized invoice in order to file claims. So if your veterinarian is difficult to work with in this process it will indeed it affect your ability to get reimbursed for the claims. Metlife was far from easy to work with took forever to get me on the policy and then ended up denying the claims because it had gone over the time to submit claims. How convenient for them? When the policy itself states that I should have had the authority to act on my mother's behalf. The claims were still denied regardless of my situation. I would NEVER recommend MetLife Pet insurance. My mother was elderly. Even if she didn't pass away and tried to do this on her own it would have been very difficult and confusing for her to accomplish. She would have most likely just thrown her hands in the air and given up. When you log into your account there's very limited information. There's zero history regarding payment history, communication history, message history, etc. It's very basic. It makes communication with them complicated and confusing. 👎🏼👎🏼

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.

Never got anymore information after I paid almost $70 to start the insurance for my cat. Total rip off.

They Would Rather Believe The Report From The Doctor OVERDOSING My Yorkie, Than The 3 Doctors Including The Specialty Emergency Hospital That Saved Her Life From Him OverDosing Than 3 OTHER DOCTORS WHO SAID SHE WAS OVERDOSED BY THAT 1 DOCTOR!!! They have Paid For Her Medication For About 12 Years, Now Has Stopped & Said They Were Wrong In Paying IT!!! What KIND Of CRAP Is THAT!!!!!

Yes, honest and helpful.... really ? I have purchased insurance from Healthy Paws when my dog was 5.5 years old ( in 2017): I chose 70% company-30% me, and 500$ deductible. I have paid for 7-8 years, never used it. They don't pay regular visits. I took my baby to ER back in January 2025. After a short visit of few hours the final bill was $1000. My deductible was $500, so then they should have paid 70% according with my plan. They said they don't pay the visit ( $250), so I was left with 250$ bill hoping to get 70% which means $175.00... well Healthy Paws invented a new Math and sent me a check of $46. Please be aware they do not cover the percentage they said !!!! For Healthy Paws: I am not interested in your excuses and explanations !! Math is Math: you should post your percentage rule on your site so people are aware of this scam ! I have stopped paying the insurance. My baby is 13.5, still doing good. I have meant to write a review for very long time. I also want to bring to attention the increasing of cost is astronomical !!!! I have read reviews that say the increase was above like 1000 %. They want you to pay , but they always find excuses not to cover !!!!

Trupanion used to be a great company, but over the last couple of years, it’s completely changed, and not for the better. I would go as far as saying this company seems like a total scam these days. I’ve had between 5 and 9 animals insured with them at any given time for the past six years, so I’m not new to this. The premiums have steadily increased across the board, even for puppies I insured early with “locked-in” rates and no pre-existing conditions. I understand prices go up, but the increases have been steep and hard to justify. What’s really pushed me to write this review, though, is the experience I’ve had recently with one of my cats who’s been seriously ill. Over the last few months, I’ve submitted more than 20 claims related to the same illness, and most of them have either gone unanswered or been categorized in a way that requires me to meet a new deductible each time. This particular cat has a $1,000 deductible, and by constantly splitting his ongoing care into separate issues, Trupanion has effectively avoided covering the majority of his treatment. Even worse, some of these claims were denied for “missing information” despite the fact that I submitted every piece of documentation they requested—doctor’s notes, receipts, timestamps, everything. I followed up multiple times after resending the materials and still heard nothing back. At this point, I’ve received responses to maybe 5 of the claims I’ve submitted, and only a few have been paid out—neither for amounts that come close to what I’ve spent trying to keep my (young) cat alive and comfortable. This isn’t just a case of slow service. It feels like they’re actively avoiding payouts. For a company that used to be known for reliability and compassion, it’s been a shocking shift. I run a large animal rescue and used to recommend Trupanion to adopters and friends all the time. I’ve completely stopped doing that. I don’t know if there’s been a change in ownership or internal policy, but something is definitely wrong. After paying steadily rising premiums for years and only needing help now with one seriously ill animal, it’s heartbreaking to be left without support. I wouldn’t wish this experience on anyone, and I can’t in good conscience recommend Trupanion anymore.

I went through the entire sign up process and then was rejected. Which reminds me to make sure Nationwide did put anything on my card
