Owner

Worst process ever. I submitted a claim wich they took a very long time to review. According to them the claim was accepted and they said they mailed a check wich was never received. They also state that if they send you a check they have no way to track it. So basically…. They ripped me off and was directed to check with the mail service as it was their fault for losing the check

NATIONWIDE IS NOT ON YOUR SIDE

Though I'm not one of the thousands of customers dropped by nationwide, my rate went up$1200/yr to $3600/yr and my coverage dropped from 70% to 50%. I have the policy 8 years since my dog was a puppy. Not real happy.

Nationwide-a $ hungry organization-buyer beware!

My new employer offered me pet insurance thru nationwide at a discount and I wanted to switch my existing nationwide policy to the employer plan. Nationwide told me I could switch at renewal. Upon renewal I called to switch it and then they denied the switch because the services rendered during the existing policy were considered pre-existing. They are a money hungry organization willing to tell what you want to hear just for a sale. I would have never selected them if I knew they would pull some deceitful bs like this. Buyer Beware!!!

Love my Nationwide

I have a chocolate lab who is mischievous to say the least and full of allergies. We visit Dr Brad of Davis Animal hospital on a regular visit for his shots. It’s so easy , take a photo of the statement, upload and Bam. Check arrived about 5 days give or take a day or so. Highly recommend Nationwide to all my friends!
