Great company!!

5
Been with you since our dog was 8 weeks old. He’s 5 now and yes my premiums have gone up, but then so has inflation, the costs of veterinary medicines and services, and the general cost of living. Any claims I’ve had have always been dealt with promptly and with professionalism. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Reviewed on: 12th September 2023

Can't fault them

I have 6 pets all insured with Petplan. Although my policies cost me a lot each month, I've got 3 that need regular and expensive treatment. I wouldn't be able to keep them without Petplan. They pay up fast and don't quibble. Worth every penny Reviewed on: 12th September 2023

A fair insurance company

Petplan is a good insurance place that is quite easy to get answers from when setting up a policy. I have not yet had to make a claim so can't comment on this. Reviewed on: 30th August 2023

Phenomenal Service

Losing our beautiful rescue dog has been far and away the most difficult experience of my life. When I could finally (sort of) face the task of sorting out the matter of insurance, I was treated with patience and understanding, and all it took from me was that one call - Petplan contacted our vet on our behalf and dealt with everything. Petplan not only settled the bills in full within 7 days of my contacting them, including items not ordinarily covered, they also waived the excess. This is not something I expected or requested; this was simply the heart of an astounding organisation! Never have I experienced this level of service and I thank Petplan above all for caring, really caring about our pets and what they mean to us. I would never consider using any other insurer.

Good cover overall

5
Strong levels of cover, apparent clear pricing, well known name in pet insurance. Only concern is they promote themselves that a claim will not affect your annual premium, it only increases with the age of your dog - however my friend has a dog from the same litter, same breed & started cover at the same time, yet after they made a large claim this year their premium increased more than ours for the same dog of the same age from the same litter. But overall good service and product. Reviewed on: 24th August 2023

Good so far

Have not yet had to claim for pet insurance. Customer service polite but when renewing did not clarify why insurance would be so much lower if the policy was re-started. (She has no prior conditions). Does offer veterinary staff discount. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Not the cheapest but worth the money

4
Great pet insurance which has always paid out with no quibbles. It isn’t the cheapest but covers most of our pets’ needs so gives us peace of mind. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023
