Stay away to avoid Heartbreak in time of need! We have been with Petplan for over 7 years. We took out a lifetime policy, and by this year the annual premium was £4,000, with payments of around £18... Read more Reviewed on: 20th July 2026

Excellent Claims Service

5
After many years of not having a need to make a claim, we have unfortunately, had to make 3 claims recently for two of our dogs. The whole process was so simple and easy with the claim being settled quickly. I was told years ago (by a chartered insurer), that you can only tell how good an insurance company is when you have to make a claim. Based on this advice, these guys are outstanding. I would not consider anyone else, they might be a bit dearer, but you get what you pay for and we have had experience with cheaper companies in the past wriggling out of paying the claim.

2 cats insured and lots of claims paid!

I have 2 cats insured with Petplan and have been a customer for over 10yrs. I’ve had multiple claims paid quickly and easily. The only pet insurer I’d use! Reviewed on: 14th August 2020

Its Starts Well Which Is A Good Bode!

I had heard from other people that this was a good pet insurance so when I was offered a free first month by my vet I went for it. I am new to this but Augustus Gunn, rag doll, aged 13 weeks is simply the best anyone could dream of, so I must cover him against the bad eventualities. Since then other people have recommeded Pet Plan. Reviewed on: 13th August 2020

A bit more expensive but well worth it

Always looked after me

5
I had my last cat insured through petplan. I took out the 'covered for life' policy when he was very young. For the last 3 yrs of his life he had kidney problems and needed lots of different tests and meds. I wouldn't have been able to afford his treatment and was so glad I made that decision many years earlier. I now have my current cat on the same policy and know that the help will be there when I need it. Reviewed on: 13th August 2020

Professional advice and quick payment

5
My dog Murphy injured his back and PetPlan told us where emergency care could be found and within days of our treatment we recieved a portion of the costs. Insurance that does what it says, plus the monthly care newsletters are great information. Reviewed on: 13th August 2020

Brilliant and Affordable

5
Affordable monthly cover for my cat and easy to claim (havent needed to claim personally). Peace of mind knowing should my cat need vet treatment i can give her the best chance I can by paying my premium every month. Petplan team were rhelpful and easy to talk to when I called to update my details, will definitely recommend and have done so. Reviewed on: 13th August 2020
