Switched from current insurance company…

Switched from current insurance company to Spot. Price point and coverage options were great. Hoping to never use it, but happy to know coverage is in place. Quote process and activation was super easy, user-friendly. Excellent experience.

Purchased spot pet insurance two years…

Purchased spot pet insurance two years ago. We have sold our pet and now cannot cancel our policy because they will not pick up their phone calls, or my emails are unable to send . I’ve tried changing my password that isn’t possible either. I had to go through my bank to stop payment which cost me additional money.

Unprofessional and unethical

Pet parents, please don't waste your time with the company. We have already had so much to deal with. I am not sure why SPOT has good reviews when my experience was totally opposite. I am a retired nurse, and this is an honest opinion. Took my dog in to the urgent care, because she coughed blooded 2 days earlier. The vet asked me when did I started seeing my dog cough. I told the vet that it could be a couple of months ago due to the Wildfire but that was very minor. Or it could have been the virus from the groomer (being close to other dogs). I wasn't sure. However, this was a loud cough with blood, that has never happened before. The vet couldn't find anything wrong with her. Cough suppressant was prescribed. Found out my family and I had Covid. The illness was considered pre-existing condition because I told the vet that the cough might start from wildfire a couple of month ago. I wrote on the claim that my family had COVID and ready to show proves. They assume that both coughs are related eventhough the professional didn't have the answer. The vet didn't test my dog for COVID as we didn't know we had COVID. The first incident or symptom (pre-existing) should be coughing blood not coughing. This is unprofessional and unethical.

I moved to SPOT

I moved to SPOT, and my prior company was "okay". our two labs were taken care of, but SPOT took PHENOMENAL care of my two labs!! Breck swallowed a pair of panty hose and was in need of immediate care. The spot team treated our lab like their own family pet! Not enough good things to say!
