Pets Plus Us | Pet Insurance Review

Horrible experience when submitting a claim. I have had my PC policy since my dog was about 4 months old, he is now 7. I submitted my first claim earlier this year with Pets Plus Us after my PC policy was grandfathered in. They sent an email requesting all vet records, including medical history from a vet that I had only seen to treat his current condition. I sent in everything I had and notified them of records that did not exist, as they were requesting. I asked to be notified if anything else should be required to ensure a speedy claims process. I recieved no response or action on my claim and ended up reaching out by phone. They stated there were still missing medical records from the vet office mentioned above. I again reiterated that he had been to that vet once and therefore no medical records exist except for the ones that they already had. I called multiple times over the next month and was told they required more information still. They claimed they needed my vet to fill out even more information explaining that my dog is infact diagnosed with what his paperwork already stated he is diagnosed with. Meanwhile, my vet had spoken to the rep who informed her that the claims department should not require any more information and I formed her not to take any action at that time. So again, sitting in limbo. Eventually my claim was paid out but it was significantly less than I was expecting. My total claim added up to around $1500 and I was paid out $350. I had spoken to the customer service agents a few times who stated they wanted me to get my vet to fill out more paperwork arguing my dog actually has an illness in order for their claims department to complete a review of my file - the same department that made the original decision. I asked for documentation stating that my dog's diagnosis was excluded from the illness category as I had no policy documentation stating this. A manager in the customer service department stated they were unable to provide this and told me they needed "weeks" to look into my case and to "be patient". A review took place and after 3 weeks I was informed nothing was going to change. Ultimately, all my time and energy dealing with this company got me nowhere. I feel completely jerked around and like they based a decision about my dog's illness on their own uneducated opinion of veterinary medicine or whatever they pulled out of the air that day, as I still have no policy documentation to back up anything they claim. Upon cancelling my policy, the customer service agent was sure to place blame on my vet stating they could not get into contact with her through this process. I explained her contact with the rep and how the rep told her not to provide further info. Come to find out, my vet took time to write an appeal that she sent directly to Pets Plus Us. Not only did Pets Plus Us not follow up with her after the denial of my review but to pour salt on the wound, they lied to me and claimed she was non responsive to all their requests. Very sad that this happens at times of high stress for people who are dealing with sick pets.

I can't say enough good things about this company. It's great value for the money. Staff has always been helpful. There have been no hesitations sending out reimbursements. I am very satisfied with Pets+Us.

You didn’t receive a payment and threatened to send my mom to collections. Then three months after she cancelled, you threatened to send her to collections again!!! Worst company out there!! Whatever you do don’t choose pets plus us when deciding on a pet insurance company for your pet! You’ll be sorry!

We were very apprehensive purchasing pet insurance but we’ve already had to use it 3 x with our 14-month-old lab and each experience was great! What we were told was covered in the beginning was with no small print brining any surprises.

In February I put in a claim. I got a claim number. Since then the company has gone dark and responded to none of my emails (I'd call but I don't trust them, so I want stuff in writing).
