Spot is great

Spot is great! I took my cat to the vet for a simple cold when they found a heart murmur for the first time. Thanks to spot I was able to do all of the diagnostic testing the vet recommended to make sure his heart was working okay. Spot provided me peace of mind that I can get everything the doctor wanted to make sure he was okay. And he is! Now I can’t rest assured and I’ll get my money reimbursed very soon. So thankful for spot!

Inadequate coverage

Even though we’re covered for preventive care, our plan only covers when my dog is currently suffering from a condition. Also, the yearly allowance for medications my dog takes on a yearly basis (flea, tick, heart worm) is a paltry and totally inadequate amount. I will think long and hard about continuing this coverage.

Spotty, Shoddy and Shady

The Preventative "Wellness" Platinum plan reimbursement is nowhere near what you get charged by your vet. NONE of the money I've paid my vet has been applied to my deductible (which is $900 this year). They say they don't have waiting coverage when they absolutely do... and the website says there customer service line is 24/7 but it's not. I shouldn't have to make a call to cancel my policy but there's no way to do it online - yet you're not even open right now?! Such a waste of money. Purchase elsewhere - Spot Insurance is spotty at best.
