Review of the Petplan, Pet Insurance:

secure feeling to know PetPlan are always there

Been delighted with the manner in which PetPlan work with the Vet to handle the 2 operations our puppy has had this year Reviewed on: 9th November 2021

Pet Plan is a SCAM

1
Pet Plan is an Absolute SCAM. You’re premium goes up every year excessively in jumps like £15 to £20. Started off at £35 and eight years later is £105 . They cover absolutely nothing . The £780 dental work was considered cosmetic and not covered . I have stopped the insurance now as the first time I make a claim because my dog got sick, nothing was covered because I had to pay 20% excess deductible which was the cost of the visit and so Pet Plan wiggled their way out of paying anything. I paid and they didn’t . I cannot for the life of me understand why I have been paying thousands of pounds over the years and nothing nothing nothing was ever covered under their terms . Pet Plan are a scum insurance . Put your money in a bank account for your pet and pay for things this way . Note I was paying £105 per month for a £4000 coverage Do you know that a simple scan and test was priced at £8000 so even if you have pet insurance your £4000 doesn’t even get you a test result let alone any treatment . And your excess on a £4000 claim will be £800 . So the actual coverage is only £3200. Meanwhile in four years you could have £5000 in your pets bank account and in 8 years over £10,000 saved for treatment . I massively regret paying into Pet Plan all these years . They only care about making money and not you pet. Reviewed on: 21st November 2022

PetPlan are an absolute pleasure to deal with, excellent support & services available. One of few insurers to offer lifelong cover, easy to claim & quick to pay out. I’ve been with them over 20 years & wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone. Reviewed on: 13th October 2022

The best

5
Not the most Inexpensive Pet insurance , but there is no problem with making a claim. To help policy holders further, the remaining balance after paying the excess can be paid directly to the veterinary practice concerned ,removing the need to find a lump sum and then await reimbursement.
