I canceled my plan because its honestly not worth it. Had the accident and illness plan along with the essential pack. Filed a claim for a wellness exam and instead of being reimbursed for it the money went towards my deductible. The employee I talked with was nice and tried to figure out why that happened but I still got no money back. I called to cancel and the employee I spoke with apparently never canceled my plan because I was charged for the next month.

Pumpkin is an Absolute scam. I’m out ALL of the premiums I paid. I found out they have exclusion lists THAT ARE NOT listen in the contract. They call it “proprietary information.” It’s where the company can deny your claim based on “private company knowledge.”

Fake reviews and a bad company. You can tell all the 5-star reviews are fake because they're all named "customer". The only genuine review with a real name is 1-star.

The actual purchase of the 4 plans for my pet family was simple. It was more

I don't seem to be able to get an answer about reducing my deductible. And I really hate it when I can't get a person on the phone when I call. I realize you are probably short-handed, but for goodness sake, find a way to call people back instead of expecting them to be on hold for a long time. I have been somewhat successful getting a to my question by using email, but your representative obviously doesn't know the answer. Do I REALLY have to cancel my new policy and start over? I need to have this issue resolved asap.

I immediately reconsidered. Ordered coverage one day and canceled the very next day. 7 days later no confirmation of cancellation. Plenty of e mails cajoling me not to cancel and guilting me for not providing coverage but no confirmation that my immediate request to cancel has been honored. I am shocked by this and expected professionalism.

If I could give no stars, I would! I have paid $141 a month and each time I submit a claim, they deny it claiming pre existing conditions my dog has not ever had! Even my vet did not understand what pre existing condition they were talking about, but they will literally not pay what they are responsible for. I canceled with them and I regret the money wasted, paying for a service they refuse to provide. SHE HAS NO PRE EXISTING CONDITIONS! Oh, and they encourage you to file an appeal, but what they don’t tell you is you will file an appeal and go months without hearing anything. This company is a scam and I am convinced the positive reviews are fake.

Pumpkin Pet Insurance is nothing but a logo and a website. I insured two cats at a very high premium price ($176/month). I drank their marketing Kool-aid instead of going with a proven company. So that's my fault. I submitted claims at the beginning of November for one cat. I received nothing except the same auto-generated email for WEEKS. When I called over a month later, the customer service rep investigated and told me that my claims were being sent for "audit" on December 16th. I was told that the audit process would take between 30-45 days. Called again in January: "we're waiting on medical records" (which had already been emailed in November.) Because I had to provide medical records from birth for a 13-yr old pet, I reached out to my pet's previous vet and uploaded 65 pages of medical records. Then I was reprimanded by a customer service supervisor for doing so: "we reach out to the vets." Just a delaying tactic. Called again in February: "we have to review these records." It's March. 99% of the claims were denied because vomiting and constipation are "pre-existing." (What cat doesn't vomit? Those are symptoms, not a disease.) But should it BECOME a disease, like lymphoma - even 10 years from now - and even after their supposed 180-day "recovery" time, they won't cover it. I wasted $90 in premiums EACH MONTH waiting for the claims to be denied- and THEY COUNT ON THAT. They do have someone monitoring their social media who will respond to this and to them I say, "your customer service is DREADFUL. If you are delaying claims FOR FOUR MONTHS (in my case) and they are going to "review," YOUR CUSTOMER IS ENTITLED TO KNOW THAT. In a timely manner. And not by dragging it out of you." Pet owners: use another company.

O.K, the overall experience of buying my policy was smooth and Pumpkin is a good insurance. But, the declaration page I received with my policy was TOTALLY wrong from effective date to the premium. NOT something you want to see from your insurance company!

Purchased Pumpkin pet insurance for 1 years old Goldendoodle. 20K/90%/$250 deductible for $55. Had 2 claims: one for diarrhea (went toward deductible) and 1 for paw treatment (poison ivy). Claims were paid fast. At age 2 premium $77. "Not due to claim history. But due to your pet's age and your location". I contacted them about this. Got reply: "Your pet is growing older.", "Rates and age factors are filed and approved by your state's department of insurance.", "Due to advancements in veterinary treatments, vets can now do more for our fur babies".
