Spot insurance has been amazing helping…

Spot insurance has been amazing helping me to give the best care to my senior working German Shepherd. He has always been a very active, intense dog, giving his all when he works. He deserves the best care and to be comfortable in his older age. Spot is very fast with claims and extremely helpful over the phone if you need guidance.

Wasted our time and money!

The 15-day waiting period is poorly communicated to new clients. We had to switch insurance because our dog was covered through a specific vet, and she developed serious health issues, leading to the discovery of a mass in her colon. Despite finding the mass well after the 15-day period, they claimed it was a preexisting condition because she was treated for diarrhea within that time frame. They also stated that her surgery to remove the mass wasn’t covered under the illness and accident plan. Their claim responses are minimal and generic, offering no straightforward way to dispute without calling and dealing with someone on the phone. We were in a difficult position switching providers, just trying to save our dog’s life. I expected some compassion from the company in such situations. Ultimately, we were penalized by the 15-day waiting period. Ironically, they had no problem taking my money from day one! Thanks for wasting my time and money!

Job well done.

The claims are easy to file and are processed and paid promptly. On the one occasion I had to communicate via telephone, the lady to whom I spoke was delightful. She resolved the issue (that I created) and seemed genuinely concerned about my pet's wellbeing.
