Grateful to Petplan for 8 extra years and counting.

When the vet wanted to put our dog down at 2, Petplan Covered For Life enabled us to get a 2nd opinion, specialist referral & excellent treatment. He is now nearly 10! Reviewed on: 26th August 2024

Expensive and doesn't value loyal customers

4
Got a quote for 2 new puppies. Have an adult with Pet plan already. Was too expensive so waited about 3 weeks to next pay day went back for another quote and it had gone up £7 Which I thought was a bit much so haven't taken up looking elsewhere. When I queried was told was their best price. I have insured several dogs over last 20 years and never claimed customer service and rewards for loyalty not given so time to ditch and look elsewhere. Never insured my dogs with anyone else bit feel not valued Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Always excellent costumer service if I have a query.

Always excellent costumer service if I have a query. Always very helpful when I have had to put a claim in. Nice that my vets can put a claim in on my behalf without any questions asked. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Terrific company

Claiming is a breeze and claims are paid within a few days. Very impressive service. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Right cover right price.

5
Really helpful in ensuring you have the right cover. Knowledgeable staff who understand pet and owner needs. We have cover for life for the dog and lower level cover for a pony because we don’t do a lot with him. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2024

I have used Petplan for my lurcher, Summer for the past 11 years. From day 1, I've always found them to be very easy to deal with. If I've ever had to call them, they've always dealt with my enquiry in a professional way and all claims have been settled quicky without issue and I've always been kept well informed throughout the process. We very sadly lost Summer recently and even in her final claim, they were kind and understanding. I couldn't fault them. Although their premiums may be higher than some. I do believe the care and customer service makes that worthwhile Reviewed on: 21st August 2024

My vet recommended then the insurance doesn’t pay out as I had a problem with Donny’s front leg and they are associating his back legs. Shocking Reviewed on: 20th August 2024

Wonderful pet insurance

Our little dog has Pruritus which means he needs continuing treatment which Petplan cover, for life! It's wonderful to know our little guy is being well looked after. Claims are handled quickly and efficiently without fuss. Wonderful. Reviewed on: 19th August 2024
