Pumpkin | Pet Insurance Review

I canceled my June renewal 30 days prior, in May. I have the confirmation emails. One of the reasons I canceled was they suck you in with a low price and jam it to you at renewal.Signed up for coverage when my pup was 4 months old, now is 1year 4 months old, still, a pup, why such an increase. Going back to the cancelation, June comes and they took money from my account without my permission. I feel like a victim of corporate THEFT, and think that is illegal. Called Pumpkin and they neglected to cancel the renewal. Now I am fighting to get my money back. When calling the call representatives they tell me they do not have the authority to fix the problem. I am going to call the Insurance Commission for insight or file a complaint.

I chose Pumpkin for my 2 kittens after doing research about coverage, pricing, customer service and etc. hoping it will be decent since the reviews online seemed to be positive. I was SO WRONG. I’ve had Pumpkin for over 6 months and this has been my experience so far: 1. Preventative essentials will cover some basic stuff initially. (But not all by far) 2. Standard tests like felv and fiv tests are not covered. (By insurance, you would think that would be covered, because it’s ordered by the veterinarian and is testing for an illness, right?) 3. They will make you submit health records and the invoices with every claim and then reject your claim based on MISSING records. (I’ve resubmitted multiple claims with every piece of paperwork for each individual cat multiple times) NOTABLY they will not ask for those records, just keep the claim in “review” for MONTHS at a time and then send you a rejection notice. 4. The customer support will give you the run around in a pleasant tone while resolving NOTHING. Ultimately save yourself the headache and go with another provider. ***Update to the response - I have submitted ALL paperwork, talked to your representatives and even emailed invoices over. I currently have multiple claims under review. Notably, you advertise that you cover the cost of microchipping. I have submitted the health records, invoices, and emailed the invoice as well. It’s been over a month, I guess your team is trying to find a clause in your terms to decline that claim and it’s taking a while?

My kitten had an accident that cost thousands in surgery fees. When it became clear that my cat needed surgery, I called the customer service line and spoke with a very helpful and kind operator who talked me through the process of filing a claim. After my claim was filed, I was reimbursed 90% within 10 days. Wow! They also provided a very clear breakdown to help me understand what was covered under my policy. Thanks to Pumpkin, I spent less time worrying about how to pay for vet bills and more time focusing on my cats recovery. Thank you Pumpkin!

I would highly recommend Pumpkin to all pet owners. The claim process is so easy and they handle claims efficiently and promptly.

Sent in my first claim. Response was fast& claim paid quickly. So far I am very happy with pumpkin.
