Rates will dramatically increase

My insurance at the 1 year mark went from $75 to $120. I did not need to use the insurance as of when prices increased. Pretty disappointing to see that they reel you in with an affordable rate and as soon as you pass the holding period, rates jump. They also do not offer discounts for veterinary students (or any veterinary professional). Edit: generic replies don’t get you brownie points. I already reached out and was told “it’s based on the local cost of services, not insurance usage.” I work at the pet hospital, I know prices didn’t increase during that time.

The vet was helpful in narrowing down…

The vet was helpful in narrowing down the problem with my dog. However, I did take him to emergency against her recommendation because he was so miserable. She was right and it was his anal gland, but it had ruptured, and he needed pain relief.

I was a novice with using pet insurance…

I was a novice with using pet insurance for our new puppy. This means not knowing anything about pet insurance or insurance coverages. After researching insurance companies we chose FIGO and various coverages. Monthly payments were made and eventually a need for reimbursement arose. Although the amount wasn't exactly what I expected the claims were paid and an agent explained the process in full. We have renewed our annual membership and have been pleased with our coverages.

Quick to set up, but not good

I went with Figo to see how they compared to Nationwide. I like their direct deposit approach to paying people back. However, the claim option did not work when I tried. I had to submit my claim through email and they did not cover as much as Nationwide. I am going back to Nationwide
