Getting too expensive for less coverage

My comments are not just for this claim but service for the last 8 yrs. Since I've had your insurance, the rates have continuously increased. I understand that but this last increase is $30 a month. Yet I don't get more coverage and you find more loopholes to keep from having to pay claims. I also believe the deductibles are per claim. My human insurance at least has a yearly deductible.

They really are the best!

Pets Best has helped with my pug, Thor's, medical bills through three illnesses. Because I had this insurance I was able to get him the treatment he needed and he's doing well now. The people are so friendly and understanding when you speak to them on the phone, claims are processed quickly, and they do exactly what they say they will do when you sign up for the insurance. I have nothing but good things to say about Pets Best!
