Pets Best | Pet Insurance Review

I’m satisfied with the amount of reimbursement for the wellness claim I submitted. However it’s taken over four weeks to get reimbursed. Room for improvement.

Super fast claim processing and so easy! Within 2 days everything was done and a deposit was being sent to my bank account! Very impressed. This was my first claim and I'm very happy I picked Pets Best!

I purchased this insurance knowing my little dog would need his teeth cleaned. So far this insurance is definitely worth it. They paid a substantial amount towards his teeth cleaning. The customer service is great. They are very nice and easy to work with. The claim process is super easy and payment gets deposited right to your account. Love it! I’m very happy with my decision to purchase Pets Best Insurance.

Want to pay monthly premiums and not get covered when your pet needs healthcare? Like upholding your end of the deal and later realizing the company won’t fulfill theirs? Then this insurance is for you! My kitten developed eye redness after we purchased the insurance plan, and I went to the vet. The vet mentioned in the note that the cat had occasional sneezing (not the actual reason we went there, just as a side note). When it came to reimbursement, the claim was denied because the occasional sneezing was deemed as a “respiratory infection”, which, intern, was deemed a “chronic condition.” The cat had a history of upper respiratory infection prior to adoption, and hence they claimed it’s a pre-existing condition. I don’t know if the people reviewing the claims are smart fraudsters or just stupid, but as a physician, I can attest that it is not how URIs work. You are “allowed” to have them multiple times a year, it is not a “pre-existing” condition like cancer or diabetes; each episode, if spaced out in time, is a brand new instance. Furthermore, this has nothing to do with eye redness (conjunctivitis) for which the cat was treated for with ophthalmic antibiotic and had a corneal exam. Over a dozen hours were spent communicating with the insurance reps and countless neurons destroyed by the stupidity of their reasoning... Needless to say, I’m no longer their customer (they had the nerve sending me an invite to resume my membership; like yeah, why wouldn’t I!), and now I’m putting away the amount I would’ve paid for monthly premiums into a savings account, self-funding my pet emergency account, knowing that if I have an emergency, there will actually be money to cover my expenses.
