Excellent service, reasonable prices

I've been with Petplan for 4 years now and they have been fantastic. Reasonably priced, easy to get hold of and great customer service. I had to make a claim and the process was quick and easy, and the payment was made efficiently. Highly recommended. Reviewed on: 4th November 2015

My claim experience

Pet insurance is the insurance you have and hope you never have to claim on, this is my experience of the claim process. We had never insured any of the other pets, but with the changing climate and the costs involved we joined the PetPlan family. What had initially drawn us to the policy was that if you had an ongoing incident than this was covered, there was not a 12 month limit, or 3k limit, one day our policy came to rescue us in more ways than one. Our dog had got been out in the garden and came in collasped and could not walk, he is a Springer Spaniel, so an emergency visit to our Vet, who her 1st real question was are you insured, Yes, good, we can't treat him here, he needs to see a specialist. The vet duly arranged this for us, and a hours drive, we were at a private hospital. The dog was seen by a specialist, he was then referred for a mri scan, the results of this showed he had fractured the bone at the base of the spine and this had fragmented into his spinal cord, which was causing the paraylsis. We were given mediciation and asked to return a week later, to see what the outcome was, worst case we were going to lose him, it was a week of tears, cuddles, tender-hooks, cancelling a holiday. I am pleased to say at the next consultation we were given the good news that the dog was on the mend and we were discharged. I have to say how helpful everyone at PetPlan was, from the initial contact, the telephone calls from myself, from queries, to cancelling the holiday, for which was under the insurance claim, PetPlan handled everything for us, all we had to do was pay the intial depoist to the vets, and Pet Plan took care of everything. At the time we paid £60, our Vets bill, the private animal hospital fees and cancellation of the holiday, came it at nearly £3k. I am ever grateful to petplan for everything they did, it is like all insurances, you hope you never need them, but when you do you want them to be there and Petplan are.
