Spot Pet Insurance never seam to have all the medical records even though we send them repeatedly, and the service refunds are very small compared to the veterinarian costs. It's just a monthly subscription that should be canceled at this point.

Could be better
Honestly paying so much money for pet insurance and not getting at least half or more reimbursement is not the best. There are other pet insurance that reimburse more. Will be switching over to a new pet insurance.

On November 1st
On November 1st, I took my cat to Urgent Care and I had inquired about Spot insurance that day. I was informed there would be a $500 deductible and it was $50 a month, so I agreed. For the next month and a half, I was taking my cat to the vet and was communication with Spot. They told me to submit the claims and that I should be expecting payment reimbursements soon. My cat unfortunately had to be put down, and I had to close out with Spot, and they reassured me that I can continue to submit the claims for reimbursement. A month goes by and I receive nothing, so I called them. They then told me that because my cat was taken to the hospital for coughing before I signed up with Spot that they would not cover anything.
First off, I signed up the day of, not after.. second, I was not made aware of that policy and had I known, I would have been much more diligent in where I would have taken him. So instead of them doing their job, they did not communicate that part of the policy to me, took my money and I ended up with nothing.

My pets was a member of spot insurance…
My pet was a member of spot insurance for 2 years. Here is my experience: my cat had a vomit for 4 days, at the vet clinic they did X Ray, blood test, didn’t find any diseases like diabetes or stone in kidney, told me to monitor her state and charged me with $1065 💰. Pyshka had an accident coverage only and blood tests, scans or CT are included in the accident coverage. The SPOT insurance reimbursement was $18.0 as they thought Pyshka had gastrointestinal problems, but she didn’t 😡. My cat choked with a hairball and it was coming out after day 4. So, I’m not longer a member of this insurance 🤯
I am pretty sure that choking with a hairball is NOT PREEXISTING CONDITION

Misleading Coverage & Denied Claims – Spot Pet Insurance is a Scam!
I signed up for Spot Pet Insurance believing it would provide financial protection for my Persian cat, Cyrus, in case of accidents or illnesses. However, my experience has been nothing short of frustrating, misleading, and an absolute waste of money.
1. Denied Coverage for an Accident
Cyrus accidentally ingested a vitamin D capsule during the grace period, resulting in an ER visit ($190) and a follow-up visit to a new vet ($368.56). I was explicitly told by Spot Pet Insurance that as long as the accident/illness did not reoccur within 180 days, it would be covered.
Surprise! When I submitted the claims, they were denied. When I called for clarification, a rep told me I needed to take him back to the vet after December 25, 2024 (180 days later) and refile a claim ONLY with a new receipt—none of the previous expenses would be covered. That is NOT what I was originally told.
2. Denied a Legitimate Claim for No Reason
I also submitted a $170 claim from September 4, 2024 for an unrelated visit—this was AFTER the grace period ended, while my pet was covered. Spot denied it because Cyrus had diarrhea in June before my policy started and claimed it was a pre-existing condition.
What?! Diarrhea is an acute, common issue in pets, NOT a chronic condition. Spot Pet Insurance is clearly finding loopholes to deny coverage for anything and everything. If a pet ever has an upset stomach in its lifetime, does that mean Spot will never cover GI issues again? This logic is completely absurd.
3. A Complete Waste of Money
I have paid over $400 in premiums, and was only reeimbursed $15 for pink eye illness. Spot Pet Insurance is essentially worthless—what’s the point of having pet insurance if they refuse to cover even basic claims? Their lack of transparency and deceptive denial tactics are shady and unethical.
Final Verdict
Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY from Spot Pet Insurance. Their policies are misleading, their customer service gives contradictory information, and they will find any excuse to deny your claim.
Beware before signing up – you are better off saving your money than trusting Spot Pet Insurance!

Hi Zubia, we understand the frustration when claims are denied. We do our best to be transparent regarding our Pre-existing conditions policy. Much like other providers, our plans don’t cover conditions showing signs before your coverage starts, as documented by your vet. We see you have been in contact with our customer service team, and would love the chance to clarify anything further. We encourage you to reach out should you have any other questions.

Typical insurance, they'll get out of paying.
This insurance is a scam. We signed up within a couple days of adopting our two new kittens. They tell you to take them in for a wellness exam within a week or two after you adopt. We did that. This exam was, of course, within the waiting period. Fine, we paid for it out of pocket and didn't submit anything. One of the kittens had started having diarrhea so they did a fecal test just in case it wasn't just the stress of the move and food changes. It came back negative and our vet said to just give it a little time. Everything else checked out well with both cats--happy and healthy. Then a month later diarrhea is back and bad so we go back to see why. They do a PCR fecal test and some bloodwork. But because diarrhea was mentioned in her first appointment, now they consider it a pre-existing condition and cannot be covered. Imagine that, a kitten with diarrhea, as if that is rare. Now I have paid over $1,000 out of pocket and none of it is covered, or even goes even toward my deductible. I have to pay for insurance that doesn't cover anything that might be in any way tied to GI or diarrhea for another 6 months before they "might" not consider it a pre-existing condition anymore.

DO BETTER.
It’s amazing that I pay more a month for my pet insurance. Then I do for my own health insurance and yet they still have the audacity to deny claims.
This company is garbage, They let me know that they denied my claim and Also, at the same time, let me know that they would’ve denied my claim, even if I reached my deductible.
They have the audacity to sit there and argue and email back-and-forth with bold letters.
