The insurance repeatedly holds up processing claims, does not indicate specifically what needs to be provided, drags their feet.

Definitely do not recommend. Will fight you on claims, and raise your premiums insanely high with no consent from you. There is better, and cheaper, pet insurance companies out there: PetsBest, Lemonade, etc. Definitely don’t waste your time with Nationwide.

Like most pet insurance there is a scam aspect to it. You really don’t get the coverage you get in human medical insurance. I used embrace for 5 years and the rates have gone up between 20% and 35% each year, so I constantly have raise my deductible and decrease my yearly aggregate amount they pay. I have swithed to Prudent Pet insurance and saved 1300 for the year for the same coverage, so let’s see what happens. Not sure why embrace invited me to review when I just canceled my policy?

In June of 2024 I cancelled my policy and moved to another company because my monthly nearly doubled with no warning. All seemed fine until April of 2025 when I was suddenly charged $93. Then I was charged $600+, then another $93, all within a month. I called in and they reversed the charges, but a couple days later I received an email telling me a charge for nearly $900 would go through on 6/15/2025!! It had better not... I've emailed them and all I've gotten back so far is an email asking how they did, so here I am, telling them.

If you're considering MetLife Pet Insurance, save yourself the time, stress, and money—do not sign up. I got this insurance thinking it would help protect my dog, Atom, in the event of an emergency. That turned out to be a complete joke. Atom had to undergo emergency surgery for an intestinal blockage after swallowing a rope—an obvious accident. But MetLife denied the claim, saying it was a “sickness.” Let me repeat that: they claimed swallowing a rope is a sickness. How does that even make sense? And before even reviewing the claim, they tried to say my policy wasn’t active—a blatant lie. I had already paid and had full documentation proving my coverage was in place at the time of the surgery. I sent them five years of vet records, detailed surgical notes, invoices—everything they asked for. Still, they denied the claim. To make things worse, they advertise that claims are processed in 10 business days. Mine dragged on for almost two months. Two months of silence, delays, and back-and-forth nonsense, only to get a denial based on a totally made-up excuse. This company is the definition of predatory. They’ll take your monthly premiums and then twist reality to avoid paying out when it actually matters. The customer service is slow, unhelpful, and either uninformed or intentionally misleading. Based on my experience, it seems MetLife is in the business of collecting premiums and dodging responsibility. MetLife Pet Insurance is not just unreliable—it’s dishonest. If you care about your pets and your peace of mind, look elsewhere. This company failed me and failed my dog when we needed them most. Zero stars if I could.

Do not use Pet's Best. They take your money and after a month-long process of easy claims, they reject them for no reason. Put your money elsewhere.

After 4 years of being a policy holder from Enron our dog was born you cancelled the Wellness Plan and now tell me that you will not insure her because of too many pre existing conditions - we don’t know of any pre existing conditions!!!

My premium went up roughly 20% with no notice and then a wellness check for my older dog was denied because we also got blood work done to check on liver levels, which were elevated a year ago. I brought this up to the company and said I could have taken my dog in for two separate appointments,(wellness check, and then go back for a blood draw) but that causes extra stress on my dog. Spot Pet Insurance said they want to do everything they can to make their customers happy, but they wouldn't move off of this claim. Clearly they don't want to do everything possible. It was a simple request given I've paid them thousands of dollars. Even if I had not have paid a lot of money already, it is still a reasonable request.
