Upheld their promise

So far pets best has upheld its promise with no hidden , elusive disclaimers that one would learn after the fact. I only submit claims when my dog gets ill, which is why we purchased this policy and to date, you have upheld your promise of no hassle claims coverage when needed.

Difficult to increase coverage

The claim process is automated and that makes it very convenient and easy. My biggest complaint with Pet Best is the difficulty modifying a policy. What is more annoying is your staff does not care, completely opposite of your claim handling. I have not choice but to change companies when my current policy expires. Again, staff does not seem to care. One rep that I talked with said "you have to do what is best for you.".

Best Pet Insurance

I've been with this company for many years. They have helped us with all of our fur babies. They are always helpful when I call with a question. They have never been late on a payment after a claim is finalized. Unlike some other pet insurance companies, Pets Best doesn't find ways to not pay the bill. They hold up their agreements outlined in the insurance policy. I highly recommend Pets Best.
