Never seems to cover anything considering dropping had trupanion for other pet they seem to pay more

We have been paying for insurance with Healthy Paws for 10 years. Our premium has gone up substantially and we have rarely used the policy. We recently had a claim where our dog had an illness and the vet gave us his notes documenting the issue. Healthy paws dismissed it as a well visit and refused to pay. We appealed the claim and have not heard back. They keep saying it is being looked at with no resolution. It seems more like a scam and not worth having the insurance with them. We have used other companies in the past that were much more reputable and responsive.

It’s all just bluff u have you pay more for premium and they all your vet bills go to ur deductible there are so many better options then fetch try other insurance companies

Overall, I am extremely unhappy with MetLife Pet Insurance policies and service. The only reason I have stayed on this insurance plan is because if I switch to another provider anything that is currently covered under MetLife policy will be considered pre-existing under a new plan. The insurance model feels like this company exists only for profit without any regard for the wellbeing of people's pets. I am specifically frustrated that my dog's eye condition (pannus) is not covered. Months prior to her diagnosis, I scheduled her for a vet appointment to treat a bite mark and eye redness in one eye. At this appointment, I arbitrarily said the issue started "a couple weeks ago" after playing with another dog - I had waited until the policy started to schedule this appointment because this was our first time at a vet being insured. During this appointment, they could not determine why my dog's eye was irritated, other than speculating that it was a play injury. She was also treated for a bite at this appointment. Within a week of this appointment, the eye redness went away without treatment. While at first covered, MetLife later retracted coverage after my dog saw a specialist for eye redness in both eyes (months later), citing the initial appointment as proof that the issue began before policy coverage. I appealed the decision, got a doctor from the clinic of the first appointment to sign off that there was no evidence that the issue treated during that first appointment was chronic or pre-existing, nor necessarily related to the chronic condition my dog later developed well into the policy. My appeal was rejected, though I never received a letter in the mail and now it is far too late to re-appeal. Now, nothing related to her eye condition is covered, while I still pay over $100/month for her pet insurance. Because of this, I cannot afford to treat her eye condition and she may suffer permanent eye damage. I feel like we were completely taken advantage of, and roped into a pet insurance plan that is not best for us. More recently, I called customer service with an estimate to have a small lump on my dog's side biopsied. Based on MetLife policy, the customer service representative cannot even say definitively whether or not this biopsy will be covered, despite it being years into my policy. While I don't blame the representative, it is extremely frustrating that it is the plain policy of MetLife Pet Insurance to never give pre-approvals for coverage. In this same call, I requested some information on yearly rates and how they expect them to change from year to year - the representative could provide no information on this either. In addition to these problems, in my experience MetLife takes far longer than their 5-10 guarantee to process claims, doesn't update their system properly (my claims from the eye issues still say "processing"), and the system is glitchy and slow. I strongly advise against choosing MetLife to insure your pets - the

Better retrain your reps and supervisors about telling people the truth. I called five times and received five different answers. Reps are rude. You wait a long time to get answers. Totally unacceptable. Where did customer service go?

For my next pet, I will be choosing a different provider.

I haven’t gotten any information about my pet since I’ve submitted the paperwork.

For some reason agents kept telling me hadn't received my claims for almost 2 weeks. Then in same day 1 agent said had and another said hadn't received
