sick cat

what i like about john lewis pet insurance,is you have the option to speak to a vetinary nurse who can often save you time and money,rather than going to the vet itself.and we all know how expensive they are! Reviewed on: 15th September 2016

Helpful friendly service

One of our cats recently went missing for a couple of nights, which is highly unusual. I called John Lewis and they said my policy covered advertising and a reward. I started to take them up on this offer and the gentleman on the call was extremely helpful and understanding of the situation. Fortunately a couple of hours later i found the cat trapped down a hole a few streets away, so i didn't need to use the advertising or reward money offered by my policy. Just knowing it is there and can be used in this instance is very good and the staff were extremely friendly. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2016

Don't get fooled by the fantastic price when you first take out policy. Started out at £19.00 pm, now paying £64.00 pm.

My husky suffers with Rhinitus, it's an on going thing requiring steroids and antibiotics maybe twice a year. If I try to change companies, I will not be covered for this as it is pre existing illness. Only way is to take a policy with another company, but when we need the steroids and antibiotics, get vet to write prescription and buy online. Reviewed on: 26th November 2015
