The SOAP notes have been holding me up. The vet office doesnt typically share these so I have to make several additional attempts to gather everything needed to get a claim paid. I wish there was a direct line from the vet to the ins so I didnt have to ask for this each time.

This is a total SCAM. I filed 7 claims over the course of a year, and ALL of them were denied. I canceled the insurance and the confirmed that it was canceled and then continued charging my credit card. STAY AWAY! UPDATE: Now they are claiming they can't even find my account after it was open for more than one year. Don't believe their reply about 92% of claims being honored. SEVEN of mine were denied. SCAM

Not a great experience with these guys unfortunately. The first claim we made took 5 weeks to process. All communication was restricted to the app. Price was increased by 15% after 5 months. The PDS (Product Disclosure Statement) is not available in .pdf and only on the app. Additionally the app PDS does not share the details of the $ coverage for each aillment (i.e ticks), making it difficult to compare to alternative insurance providers. I've switched to Budget Direct who were significantly cheaper, provide a detailed PDS in .pdf via email and have both an app chat and call centre for any claims/questions.

there is no customer service. Chat box does not allow you to speak to an agent or even type the issue. You need to spend too much time just to find an answer to a simple question.

Our costs have skyrocketed 158% since we started with Trupanion 10 years ago. This is a breach of trust from the agreement we entered into and we are beyond disappointed in this from a financial and ethical standpoint. Edited to add: Our last increase was 38%. I have reached out to them and asked for rationale, in writing, regarding what could possibly cause this drastic increase (especially since it was less than 2 months after, conveniently, our youngest dog entered the "senior dog" age bracket, meaning switching policies and/or insurance carriers would be very costly.) They have not given us any rationale, but routinely reply to public comments asking us to contact their customer care number, which is just an avenue for their "care team" to offer us the option to cancel our policies. I wish I would've known this before I chose them as insurers of our 2 beloved pups.

Hire more people so the wait on the phone isn't soooo long.

These charges should go against my deductible

Avoid at all costs! They increase rates by as much as 57% every year for a single healthy young pup. When you do file a claim, they often deny giving an accuse that the itemized bill isn't legible, when anyone with normal vision can read it perfectly fine.

Very difficult to submit claims. Every claim needs doctors office notes even for annual routine visits and vaccinations. I was required to even get explanations of benefits from my prior pet insurance. I never had to jump through so many hoops with pet insurance as I do with MetLife. I am sorry I switched.

I filled out the application online for new pet insurance and when I submitted it, the website told me there was an error and it was not submitted. I chalked it up as a loss and moved on to the next insurance company to get a quote. The next quote I got was only marginally more expensive, so I went ahead and started my policy with the other insurance company. About an hour later I got an email that my application did go through, but it will be 3 business days before my policy starts. Now I have no one to contact to cancel the policy.
