I insured my German Shepherd since a pup, she's 10yrs old now so I've paid roughly £6k in premiums to Petplan. My second claim was last month for £420.00. So they deducted the £95 excess + 20% of the OVERALL amount + ALL the PRESCRIBED foodstuffs over the critical period and they're proposing sending a cheque for £163.00 , for a claim they've had over 5 weeks.

I also discovered that Petplan had tried to convince my vet that the illness claimed for was in fact the same illness as my only previous claim, Petplan clearly trying to wriggle out of paying anything! Petplan 'Claim Team' seem appear to try anything to negate a claim and mistake their knowledge, or lack thereof, for a veterinary degree plus years of practise.

You'll find most of the positive reviews for Petplan are employees or new pet owners thinking they have 'peace of mind' as it was 'so easy to sign up'. When it comes to making a claim, not so easy. Also, bear in mind the vast majority of visits to the vet come well below the excess charged by Petplan and even if its £20 or £30 over the likelihood is you'll not make a claim in the hope they'll be more receptive when you do. This is most definitely not my experience with Petplan.

My advise, put the cost of the premium away each month, it'll be significantly cheaper, you wont need to debate with Petplan to pay the vet bill and you'll more than likely find you've initiated a lovely savings plan which will show a large surplus over and above it's intended use.

I have cancelled my policy with Petplan, to not do so would be simply throwing money away and enabling this company to perpetuate their disgraceful business.

I have to say I'm amazed Mr Fitzpatrick has seen fit to endorse this disreputable company for his few pieces of silver, staggering how some will apparently say anything for a greedy pound!

Thankfully my Maine Coon is a healthy and fit ball of fluff, but animals are unpredictable and it takes one small thing and your looking at huge bills, however making monthly payments lessons that burden and the friendliness of the staff definitely take the stress out of making a claim.
