First time we've insured with Animal Friends, accident-only policy. Never needed to make a claim (and hopefully never will!) so no idea about their performance. Free video vet service is a nice addition Reviewed on: 1st October 2024

We have had to use Animal Friends when our poor cat who was ahead on scores fell to a squirrel. Our vet was brilliant and our cat returned. Animal Friends settled our vets bill then went the extra mile with a follow up email a few weeks later asking if our cat had fully recovered and to give him a fuss!! Brilliant service and little snipets to give advice etc on keeping pets healthy Reviewed on: 24th August 2022

Immediate response, excellent service.

Payment for treatment was received almost immediately after the Vet's submission. Excellent service. Reviewed on: 24th August 2022
