They do what they say they will.

I have used Pet Plan for 25 years and have rarely needed to claim until recently. I now have 2 dogs who unfortunately have health problems and Pet Plan have come up trumps, dealing directly with my vet and taking care of the costs. I would totally recommend them, don’t use the cheapest use the best, it pays dividends in the end. Reviewed on: 12th August 2020

Excellent Claim Process and Assistance

I have been with Petplan for 7 years, insuring my pet Labrador, Hugo. Hugo has a skin condition which requires him to take daily medication, which will be lifelong. Fortunately this is covered either my policy and Petplan turn round the claim with a few working days, meaning I am not too long out of pocket. They keep me updated with the progress of the claim and very easy to deal with. Reviewed on: 12th August 2020

Simply the best

I used another company who I had to take to the Ombudsman twice to get paid on valid claims. I have a new cat and now use Petplan. My cat developed diabetes and Petplan has covered all treatment (bar excess) usually within a week of submitting claims. Excellent service and I recommend them at every opportunity.

My Stafford has quite I'll twice and I had no problem with them paying the vet. One problem was a ulcer on her eye and pet plan are the only one that insures you. Excellent news for us really good service. Reviewed on: 12th August 2020

Good for first year then expect huge increases

Huge increase in pricing after first year. Try to claim that a sprained paw in a cat was a chronic issue. A sprain is an acute injury that resolves. Doesnt mean a chronic issue and never allow further treatment to a separate issue in that area Reviewed on: 12th August 2020

Great company
