Saved My Dog's Life

I got the top-tier insurance option because I'm a worry wart, and I'm so glad I did. My dog ate a bunch of raisins and the vet recommended a two-day hospital stay. The insurance had no problem issuing a reimbursement for this. I don't know what i would have done without it.

I’m so glad we have Nationwide. They were quick in paying my claims when my dog needed surgery. Thank you Nationwide.

Glad I got insurance for my dog

Nationwide (friendlier as former VPI) is timely enough with reimbursing insurance claims. I really only have one complaint. I just received email saying: "We're glad we could help out with the cost of the visit!" excuse me?! You're not "helping out". I pay a pretty high premium to make sure I can afford to keep my girl healthy. You're not "helping out with the cost". More like fulfilling your end of the contract. And surely that is much is appreciated.
