Great Insurance

I was reluctant to get insurance for my newly adopted furry baby, as I had pet insurance on my previous dog, with another carrier, and they would never reimburse any expenses. A friend told me about MetLife and that she was pleased, so when I adopted my new furry baby, I thought I would give it a shot. I have had an excellent experience with MetLife's coverage so far and would highly recommend them. In fact, I told a good friend about MetLife's pet insurance, and she purchased it as well and is also very pleased. It is good honest coverage. They cover what the plain advertises it will cover, and customer service is friendly and knowledgeable.

Exclusions

Was a member for a decade but apparently emergency dental surgery isn't covered under our accident and illness policy. I would have been much better served saving the nearly $70 a month on insurance and putting it in my shoebox. I had never made a claim before with them and this is how I was treated. Thanks for the money but we don't cover this emergency care because it's dental, as if that's somehow not urgent. Very disappointed

Total scam

Rejected claims with no explanation other than 'terms of service' for over a period of 6 months, emergency services, and ultimately euthanasia. The final one it was all written off with deductibles. You pay out of pocket for all services up front with the impression you can file a claim, and guess what.... wasn't worth the premiums and we canceled it for all our pets.

NATIONWIDE BEST PET INSURANCE

I have been using Nationwide ever since we adopted our Princess (Cavapoo). They are an excellent company. I go to the Vet than I take a picture of my invoice and submit for payment and they pay it in a few days. Great service.

From PetFirst to MetLife

We (3 dogs at the time) initially had Pet First insurance for over 13 years and they were fantastic- great service efficient and caring. Would give them a 10 rating! Then MetLife bought them and the first year was difficult as some claim steps were different and the prices really increased! After 3-4 years it’s getting better and always room for improvement- hard to upload all tests lab reports and SOAPS so I fax and had trouble after Covid getting the proper fax number so claims were not processed- finally got handled and now it’s much improved and direct deposit of reimbursement is a great feature.

Be Careful With Metlife

MetLife is no different from any other insurance scam. I was referred to a specialist’s to finally figure out why my cat keeps vomiting and and $3300 later we received our diagnosis along with a denied claim because it’s a “pre existing condition”. They covered the POC visit for this issue but as soon as a specialist is needed it’s pre-existing? I am cancelling my policy and not getting pet insurance again, total scam.

Best decision ever

We have a standard poodle, Barney who is 8 now, but he was quite sick twice. We did not have insurance on him and we called him the $6000 dog. A few months ago we decided to get another, Betty, and I debated on getting insurance,,I decided to get a cheaper plan and called Met life. The man I spoke with told me the better , more expensive plan is good for a puppy and I could always lower it as she got older so I followed his advice. I’m so glad I did. Betty also has been quite sick twice this year and has had 13 claims. All have been handled quickly and every person I have spoke with is so kind. I’m so GLAD I have this policy and I will never drop or downsize it !

I totally agree with the above post. I've rarely had to call regarding a claim not covered. When I've had to there were no problems, everything was explained and gone over with me. I too was going to cancel and was told the same thing. They go above and beyond to help you. I would recommend MetLife Pet Ins. to anyone who asks!

Easy, Affordable, and Clear

I've used multiple insurance services for my pets over the years and have never had an easier time filing claims and getting help when needed. Everything is clear and when I've had to clarify they were fast to respond and resolve the issue.

Healthy Paws - SImply fantastic

We've had Healthy Paws since we got TJ as a rescue and they've been simply fantastic. Unfortunately we've had to use their services far too often for TJ but each time their online claim service was super easy and efficient. I've set my payment option for direct deposit to my checking account and usually within three days of claim submission the payment is in my account. As with any pet insurance policy the rates do go up every year but I feel their annual monthly premium increase is quite reasonable and they never raise your rate other than the normal annual policy rate increase no matter how many claims you submit in my experience. The few times that I've needed to contact them by phone they've always been very efficient and helpful in resolving my issue. When originally shopping for pet insurance they had the best rates and coverage. They get ten stars in my opinion.
