My claim for the treatment of a bladder infection of our cat was not reimbursed by Figo, referring to a comment in his file that, according to me and our vet, has no causal link with bladder infection whatsoever. Our cat developed a bladder infection 5 weeks after taking out the insurance, so in essence Figo's suggestion is that I would purposefully have registered our cat while he already had a bladder infection, and then let him walk around with it for 1½ months, just to be able to declare the invoice? What an annoying and also disrespectful insinuation.....

I have been with Figo Pet Insurance 5 months. The dog was taken to an emergency vet center on a Sunday when vomiting started after 2 days of liquid diarrhea and refusal to eat. He was admitted to their ICU and was severely dehydrated. The staff was able to stabilize his condition but was not able to determine the cause of his problem. The bill was $7838.58.

First of all, DO NOT BUY PET INSURANCE. Pure waste of money. Open a savings account and put the premium in it to save up for the "bad times". Used 2 ins companies, first one quietly increased our premium due to "age" with very little communication, burying the notification in a routine annual renewal email. Second company, Figo, paid for little bills (applied to deductible, so almost nothing paid out) as our dog's health declined, then denied an x-ray related claim due to pre-existing condition, heart murmur. X-ray was NOT done to check on her heart, but to determine a NEW coughing issue. Because vet prescribed heart murmur meds, it was deemed pre-existing and denied. Appealed denial, they claim they did not get the email (it was sent, no error message received). Dog's health continued to decline, we sadly had her euthanized. Euthanasia claim denied due to pre-existing condition causing health decline, stating she had heart, tumor and cough issues in 2024. NONE of those were related to any of her 2025 issues. We'll appeal that as well, but I see how the process works now and have very little hope of any reversals.

They charge almost $40 a month and don’t cover a dime for any vet visit even though it should be covered. They are such a scam do not get them!

I just signed up today. There was a monthly fee quoted, which I am fine with. However, when I submitted my first payment, there was an additional $15 "enrollment fee" added. I didn't see anything on the website that indicated that there was going to be an additional fee charged. If this fee had been clearly listed, I wouldn't have had an issue. But tacking on an additional fee is dishonest. FIGO refused to credit this fee back to me. I'm considering canceling my enrollment, since I no longer have confidence in FIGO's honesty.

I am not a fan. I had Lemonade insurance before moving to a state that didn’t accept Lemonade and had to switch to FIGO. I never had any issues with Lemonade and only encountered issues with FIGO. They will not reimburse you for ANYTHING! They will find any small detail to make sure they don’t have to pay you anything or contribute to your deductible. My cat was diagnosed with asthma after already having insurance and since they was 1 exam note from two years ago that he had a cough it was considered a pre-existing condition. I even paid extra for the vet fees wellness package and they didn’t cover my vet exam fee. FIGO sucks, don’t pick them.

This was my first experience with a pet insurance, I was told that it will be difficult to file a claim, but Figo made everything easy and fast.

The claims process is easy and my claims were paid promptly. My only beef is that the premiums have increased a lot from year to year.

Take your money and run because that’s what this company will do to you.
