Petplan listens and understands

I have been a policyholder for over one year now and have been so impressed with the consideration and communication from Petplan. Reviewed on: 24th September 2025

Amazing claims service

5
Had to claim for some treatment my pet had from our vet and a specialist referral centre. Both claims settled within a day of them being sent it. Fantastic service! Reviewed on: 8th September 2025

Great at sorting our claims!

Great at sorting our claims and ensuring we get the help we need if we have to call to check information. They work directly with our vets so the process is smooth and im kept informed by them for each step Reviewed on: 8th September 2025

In my opinion, Petplan is THE best insurance provider..

5
In my opinion, Petplan is THE best insurance provider on the market. Yes, it might appear a little more expensive but there's good reason for that. 1. The staff are always friendly, knowledgeable and helpful when I call up, putting my mind at east that my little dog Frankie will be able to get the best possible care. 2. They have paid all of my claims directly to my vet meaning I haven't been left out of pocket whilst the claim is processed. 3. The cover they provide is excellent! My friend is with another insurer and is always having to pay massive excess payments but my excess with Petplan is always the same. Reviewed on: 8th September 2025

Customer and veterinary professional

5
I am a customer and veterinary professional so I have dealt with Petplan from both sides. Very good company, always fair and quick to pay claims, they cost a bit more per month but you get what you pay for. Reviewed on: 5th September 2025

Long term customer very satisfied

5
I have had Petplan for years and they have always been brilliant. The claiming process is easy and fairly quick. My only issue is that you can't negotiate the price, however, the insurance is well worth it. Reviewed on: 5th September 2025

PetPlan - best in class

5
With our two cats recently we had to make use of our insurance for some important procedures. The referrals and pre-approvals were all done for us due to the process already in place between our chosen vets and the insurers. If we weren’t with PetPlan, we would have had to undertake a lot of communication and negotiation ourselves, which would have been very burdensome given the emotional side of sending our pets in for tests and procedures. Everything was taken care for us quickly, efficiently and with lots of compassion and care. I’d recommend anyone with a pet to get a policy with PetPlan, Reviewed on: 5th September 2025
