Great benefits and super rates Highly recommended Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Great service at a troubling time

4
My cat was diagnosed with cancer and had to be operated on asap. From start to finish Animal Friends made it easy for my vet practice to liaise directly with them in order to get the treatment paid for , and I did not need to get involved at all, which was a godsend at a really upsetting and troubling time. I have meter had to climb on pet insurance before and was concerned that it would be complicated and they my not pay put but all was dealt with fabulously. For really reasonable payments every month I now have complete peace of mind should nothing befall by cat again. Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Always prompt service & payments

I’ve been with Animal Friends for years with my current dog and my previous one. They have always given prompt service and have never quibbled about payments. Would definitely recommend Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Very easy to claim, and very quick to pay!

5
My cat had to have an operation to remove some potentially cancerous lumps on his tummy, which cost over £600! My vets submitted the claim via Pawtal, which was a very simple process and I received payment within hours! I was worried about my cat a few days after the surgery, so used Animal Friends' online vet service Joii, who were very reassuring all was OK. Such a relief, and my cat is fully recovered. Would definitely recommend Animal Friends insurance :) Reviewed on: 24th August 2022
