Processed fairly quickly
Claims have been processed fairly quickly over the years for all pets involved. However, I do not understand why my last claim for euthanasia was denied.

Very pleased
Very pleased with claim process. My only suggestion would be to speed up the processing of the claim a bit. Still, overall, an excellent experience.

I absolutely recommend Pets Best
We signed up for Pets Best on the recommendation of a friend who (unfortunately) had to use your policy when their puppy became gravely ill. They had nothing but positive things to say about their experience with Pets Best, and after having to use it ourselves for our pup, Cooper, I couldn't agree more! Going to the emergency vet is never a fun experience. In fact, it is downright stressful and emotionally-draining. But knowing that we would be covered for the expensive vet bill made at least one part of the experience so much easier to handle. It took the financial component out of the equation for us, and allowed us to just focus on taking care of our pup. The claims process was extremely easy and straightforward. Our reimbursement went through exactly as it stated in our policy, and we have already received the majority of the funds back into our account. I would absolutely recommend Pets Best to all my friends and family - In fact, I already have!
