Excellent!

I purchased an insurance policy from Embrace a year ago, but was unable to make any comment at that time because I did not need it for my dog. This year Embrace offered a wellness program which I did sign up for. After taking my dog, Lucy, to the vet for her yearly checkup and dental cleaning, I was easily over the $200 maximum for payment. I submitted the bills by fax and was notified the same day of acceptance by return e-mail. The check for $200 was mailed to me and I received it the next week. How's that for service!

Great Pet Insurance Carrier

I cannot say enough about how much I like this company. We had a bit of information missing when we filed our claim and Embrace took it upon themselves to call the vets' offices to get it. From that point Carrie, from Embrace, kept us informed all along the way. She was wonderful. We are planning to get another pet within the next few months and will use Embrace for our pet insurance carrier.

Great First Impression

I just signed up with Embrace for my 2 1/2 year old Havanese. So far, I have been very impressed with the customer service I have received. I have just recently gotten my policy and have not yet had to file a claim, however I feel when the time comes, all will go well.I would highly recommend.

Misleading; why get insurance if it covers nothing

I am very disappointed. Both of my 11 yr old cats are new to Embrace. In total it costs me 540+ dollars to cover them for a year. As they are older, you would not allow their illnesses to be covered. It would have been more economical to use that money to directly pay out of pocket vet bills than to pay for both the insurance and the vet bills. I think initially, you had false advertising...and I was mislead. I certainly am not going to get your insurance next year.

Slow claim service

I've submitted several claims (the oldest dating back to late August, more than 5 weeks ago) and have yet to receive resolution on any of them. They did not make good on their promise of a 15-day response and they have not been very communicative. Each time I inquire about the status of the claims I hear that they are very busy, they're sorry, etc. I chose Embrace largely due to the positive reviews I saw on this site. I have yet to see anything to support those reviews.
