PETS BEST WILL DELAY PAYMENT ALWAYS

typical support from Pets Best. you have an issue with the receipt BUT fail to take 30 seconds to email me to clear up the issue.. Instead you close out the claim which is so straight forward to fix. But no multiple calls to find out status... not one email confirming you received the updated paperwork. and silence from Pets Best when you call to find out status.

Quick, efficient

I had my first experience this past week. After my dog had a serious impalement and needed surgery. I submitted the receipts before I left the veterinary hospital. And I received my refund within 3 days. I had a couple questions regarding the next few appointments and how to claim them, and customer service was great and quick. I'll definitely be keeping this service.
