Working alright despite creating false expectations
This is replacing a previous 2 star review as I finally received information that is clearer than the website and had a claim processed. As long as they do not raise my rates next year as penalty for my puppy's illness, I will likely continue on with them.
Cons:
-The chat feature on website is for show only and should be removed. It is false advertising for a service they don't offer.
-The website states that claims process in 5-10 days. This is not true. Some claims can take up to 30 days, which someone on the phone verified and which is buried in fine print somewhere. The website should be updated reality to allow for realistic expectations and save time calling customer service when claims don't process within 10 days.
-When I used the contact form on the website, I never received a reply. Again, features that are not in use should be removed.
-I have wellness coverage but this is not marked anywhere in my account materials or policy documents. I had to call to make sure I actually have it.
-There is no way to opt out of receiving paper EOB statements, which is environmentally wasteful since that information is emailed and available in the online portal.
-They contacted my vet and asked for my puppy's medical records, which was odd because I've already uploaded all of her medical history since she was in rescue before I got her. They did not send me a notice that I was missing documents. It gave me the impression they were trying to find a way to invalidate my claims.
Pros:
-All of my claims have been processed without a dispute, even if it took a month for larger claims.
-The call center workers are always kind and helpful.
-It is relatively easy to submit documents online.
-Getting reimbursements over PayPal is fast and simple.
