Review of the Petplan, Pet Insurance:

Hassle-free service, stress-free claim

5
I have been with Petplan for a few years now & have had to claim for two of my kitties. Each time the process was smooth, stress-free & handled perfectly. Would definitely recommend! Reviewed on: 16th July 2020

Fast, friendly and efficient

5
Only delays in payment were due to shortstaffing at vet. Even then petplan advised for reason for delay. Reviewed on: 29th September 2023

Reliable and sympathetic

5
I lost both my 17 year old cats last year, insured with Petplan from adoption at 16 weeks through to the end. Sadly over their last couple of years, many claims were put in. I found Petplan to be highly sympathetic and empathetic. I found an insurance company who paid reliably and without any inquisition. These lovely ladies and gents were second to none upon the calls I had to make sadly cancelling each policy. I never hesitated to indure my new cats with them. A pleasure to deal with through the most stressful of times Reviewed on: 27th September 2023

Never been so disappointed

1
For such a big company you'd think they would be able to answer calls and emails a bit quicker! Reviewed on: 27th September 2023

Faultless Service

5
Pay out quickly, keep you updated by email/text. Vets happy to deal with them directly because of their good reputation. Don't contact you unnecessarily when your pet isill. Make you feel like a valued customer. 10 out of 10 Reviewed on: 26th September 2023

Totally reliable in paying up

5
Sasha is a tripaw dog of 13 years and I have been with Petplan since we got her from a rescue in 2016. We took out the life policy which has saved us a lot on her prescription meds. We have never had a claim refused Reviewed on: 26th September 2023

Do not cover euthanasia or cremation

1
I was hoping I would not have to worry about cost when my cat sadly passed away but I was wrong and had a £400 bill to pay Reviewed on: 26th September 2023

No hassle claims

5
This month two of my pets became unwell and my vet bills quickly added up. Luckily they both have Petplan insurance and my claims were paid within a day of my vets sending them in. All I had to do was provide my vets details! Two of my cats have ongoing conditions, irritable bowel disease and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - it’s such a relief knowing that there’s no penalty for claiming. Reviewed on: 25th September 2023

Doubled my premium

1
They may pay up but they sure do increase your premium to reflect this the year after and they know I cannot go anywhere else Reviewed on: 21st September 2023

Best pet insurer

5
Have my dog insured with Petplan for the last 9 years. Best cover and service Reviewed on: 19th September 2023

Never fails

5
Petplan have been the insurer of all my dogs from pup to the end. In nearly 40 years I have never had a claim refused, and currently my 6 yo cocker spaniel has 2 life long conditions., his claims each year more than cover the premiums for my 2 dogs, but Petplan pay promtly and without question.
