Review of the Animal Friends, Pet insurance:

Don't Do It

1
Before you consider taking out insurance with these thieves....stop....put your debit card down. Don't believe their "animal friends" nicey nicey name/image...these guys will whatever they can to not pay you the money you're owed. My dog has been left lame and in pain for nearly 2 months while I've had two different claims denied. I've now just had to bite the bullet and pay for it myself. I've had insurance with them for 4 years and never claimed a penny. Then when I need them... guess what, they try to wriggle out of paying and couldn't care less about your pet. Best advice I can give you is to direct debit the money you would pay to them monthly into a savings account and further down the line if/when you need it you will have a pot of money to at least lessen the burden Reviewed on: 2nd March 2021

Awesome

I've never had dealings with them as sorted out my cover online and renewed via their website. All the things they are involved in though, makes me happy to be insured with them. I love seeing all the podcasts, events, charity work. It's heartwarming. Reviewed on: 14th July 2023

Great customer service!

I could not be more impressed with the service, friendliness and efficiency of this company. The claims turn around is by far the best on the market! Reviewed on: 3rd November 2022

12 years of great cover

I've had my policy for 12 years in January, made several claims over the years and had many interactions with Animal Friends. They've offered great cover and service and I'd have no hesitation recommending them to others Reviewed on: 15th October 2022
