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

Excellent service!!!!

I have 2 Cockapoos, Milly and Molly who are 5 & 6. Ive been with this insurance from the start and ive never changed it, which i think in this day and age, with all the companies trying to undercut to get your business, is a credit to the company. Excellent customer service and i find it really impressive how quickly they can sort the claim, when they receive it. I know its not the cheapest, but its the BEST. Thank you for looking after my 2 girls. XX Anne Marie Pimblett Reviewed on: 25th August 2022

When I took the insurance policy out for Toby my cat last year everything was very good and straight forward, I made a mistake online which was my fault i'm not the most computer literate, the staff member I spoke to was very helpful and polite and sorted it out. Reviewed on: 25th August 2022
