Great company with great rates

The application process went very smooth and I have downloaded the app. Everything was seamless and now I will wait to see how the reimbursement process goes. Spot won my business after spending a lit of time comparing companies.

Still waiting

When I signed up it indicated I would receive the coverage information through email within a few days. It has now been 8 days and I have heard nothing. If nothing is heard by next week, I will cancel the policy.

Claims process is long and grueling

Claims process is long and grueling. I have submitted only 2 claims in the 5 months I have purchased 2 policies and each time it has taken over a month to process a claim. And with each claim, I received little to zero reimbursement despite paying for a higher plan to include wellness. Feels like I have been ripped off and I no longer recommend this to anyone and will more than likely not be extending my policy. The only good thing thus far are the customer service agents I work with over the phone. Working over email? Dreadful. I have to call about my claims to get any movement, otherwise I will be told they are waiting to receive medical records, and I send them (i have proof in the email thread they were sent) and I will be told they didn’t receive anything. I also don’t get a response when I ask to be notified when they receive my documents. Super huge fail.
