The One Two Rely on

5
Our cat was seriously ill last year and had to be referred to a vet Hospital, on contacting Petplan they ensured me that all would be taken care of concerning payments so not to worry. They were also very concerned and caring and hoped that he would be OK. He is now fine thanks to his operation and support from Petplan. Reviewed on: 26th July 2022

Really helpful

I’m a new rabbit owner, the support that you get from petplan is really helpful. I feel confident that my rabbit is looked after really well under petplan insurance like no other. Reviewed on: 26th July 2022

Claims Paid Quickly

I have always had my claims paid quickly. Pet Plan keep me informed about the claim and also confirm when they have made a payment. This is exactly what you need when you pet is ill. Reviewed on: 26th July 2022

Very fast with advice and payments at a fare price

After 3 payments my dog damaged her hip joint beyond repair and had to go to a specialist she had to have a complete hip joint to replace it. Pet plan wpful all the way and paid the bills promptly what more can you ask. I NOW tell every one and they all ask what was the name of the insurance company. PET PLAN Reviewed on: 26th July 2022

Excellent service & support

I've always insured my cats with Petplan .They are always friendly & helpful. Most of all the reassurance they provide to an owner of 2 Street fighter ginger males is wonderful, especially over frequent claims for "war wounds.' Thank you so much Reviewed on: 26th July 2022

My dog would be blind without it

5
My puppy developed juvenile cataracts and if I didn’t take out a pet plan policy he would be blind now as I wouldn’t have been able to afford the surgery and all the follow up appointments and medication. They paid out very quickly with no quibbles, I throughly recommend it as you never know what whats round the corner Reviewed on: 26th July 2022
