I thought because USAA partnered with Embrace that it would be an easier insurance provider to deal with, being that we are a military household. We are also overseas, as many military are, so I was not expecting the strange loopholes this company gives to overseas clients. I signed up through their website with no issues. The second I created an account, had paid for my cat's policy and filled out all of her paperwork, the website went dark. I no longer had access to it. After about a week of trying to log on, I decided to download a VPN and see if it worked from a different IP, which would be strange because it initially allowed me to use my UK IP. So now I can access my account but only through a VPN, annoying, but doable, but still confused by the switch up because of course, they work with military who are often stationed outside of the US. Fast forward to my cat dying. I am now trying to cancel my policy and there is no way via the website to do so. You must call one of the six different 1-800 numbers they have listed on their site. They ALL go to the same recording, which, when choosing option 3, to cancel my plan, it rings once and hangs up. I experienced this with every number provided on the site. There is no e-mail for customer support. There is no person to contact. How is this possible? There is no way for me to cancel my policy? I absolutely do not recommend Embrace for pet insurance. It's giving scammer vibes. Where are the people who work there and how am I supposed to contact them?

I thought this would be an easy company to deal with, associated with USAA. Sure, they employ nice people who are helpful when you call in to dispute a claim that wasn’t covered, but get ready because you will be calling them a lot. You have be extremely specific with your claims and that involves invoices from your veterinarian. I have had 5 claims in one month rejected because the wording used in the invoice is not covered. Once the wording is changed to the specific language in the policy the claim is then covered. However it’s the same thing. I can’t claim “physical therapy” as a broad term because that may or may not include the 5 therapies covered. This is such a headache because I then have to go back to the veterinarian and beg them to change the wording on the invoice so I am refunded. What has been extremely frustrating is my veterinarian expressing her own dismay as “other insurance companies aren’t this picky.” Had I known this I would have not automatically trusted a USAA company to be the best choice. My advice is KNOW YOUR POLICY, and be able to communicate clearly to your veterinarian about what language needs to be used on an invoice. It sucks, in the face of an animal in crisis to have to think about it this way, but alas here we are.

Claims site is terrible, both on app and via web. Uploaded every possible clinical document, but they didn't seem like they even looked at them and delayed claim process while "awaiting clinical information". I still haven't had an outcome but Embrace sent me an email asking me to review them, so this is where we are at. Maybe when the claim is finally adjudicated, I may have further feedback.

Have not heard anything back regarding my application

Unless you begin to insure your pet from the time they are born, this insurance is useless. They consider everything you have taken your pet to vet for as a PRE-EXISTING CONDITION and do not cover. It's useless for a pet like ours that is 6yrs old. You also have no control or idea what the vet writes in the medical records and will consider that as PRE-EXISTING. Disappointed and if my claim for our last visit is not covered, I will likely cancel this insurance.

Very fast processing and got my annual paid for quickly. BUT, BEWARE!! My total amount was $175 and my payment was $20/month, so I took a LOSS of over $70. Be sure you will have an annual of more than $240!!

Overpriced

I have had Nationwide pet insurance for years for my animals. We were unaware of an expired credit card on three of our animals plans, and were not informed of this expiration. Nationwide claimed they sent us a letter in the mail, but didn't update our portal or send an email like every other communication - including the one for this review - was sent. We had a valid credit card on file for our 4th animal but our other 3 animals were dropped. We discovered this issue when our claims we denied despite the prior month (when we supposedly would not have been insured) being accepted. We are now not allowed to reinstate our insurance because during the time of coverage our dogs have gotten too old to have the insurance they now need. We are left stuck with over $4k in bills and more to come for two aging dogs. To say we are disappointed is an understatement.

no one ever got back to us. Even though I am a corporate customer

rates doubled in one year. had to cancel coverage on one dog to make it affordable
