Hassle free

PetPlan’s no quibble, comprehensive cover cuts out the middle man and pays the vet directly. What’s not to like! Reviewed on: 13th October 2023

No quibble insurance

My staffie had a four night stay at the vets.they did lots of tests which were very expensive. I handed the vet the claim form. 2 days later email from petplan saying funds will be there within five working days. No hassle whatsoever. Worth the price in itself. Reviewed on: 26th August 2021

Excellent pet insurance

Pet Plan have always paid our claims with no quibbles, the covered for life policies are terrific, not the cheapest especially as your pet gets older and you also have to pay 20% of the total treatment costs as well as the excess BUT as I said they have always covered our claims this year alone over £11000 so I have no trouble in highly recommending Pet Plan Reviewed on: 25th August 2021

My dog has an on going skin issues (atopy) and is a regular visitor to the vets requiring constant treatment to keep him in good order. Without Petplan there is no way I could have afforded all the required treatment Rodney needs and I am so grateful I have never ever had any queries from Petplan!
