Review of the Waggel, Pet Insurance:

View on product page

Terrible company, would not recommend

We've been extremely disappointed with Waggel and definitely would not recommend. We have had 2 claims denied unfairly, in our opinion: - Our dog needed surgery to remove a retained puppy tooth; she was a puppy when we took out the insurance, but a puppy having puppy teeth was classed as a "pre-existing condition". - Our cat chipped a tooth and vet advice for the past 3 years had been to leave it as it was. The most recent check-up identified root pulp showing and recommended further work; this was denied. Apparently we should have had the tooth taken out within 3 months of the chip, against vet advice. Our vet even offered to follow up with Waggel as they thought it was unfair! Communication - I put in a request for information on Brucellosis testing, I never received a response. Finally, we decided to cancel the policies having paid £1100 for dental surgery this year on top of annual vaccinations and flea / worm treatment. Less than a week later we reconsidered and asked to re-start the policies. Waggel said this wasn't possible, we would have to obtain a new quote and start the whole process again, despite the policies being renewed this month. When I spoke to someone at Waggel about it, they were very unhelpful, just repeating the company line. In summary, I would not recommend Waggel. If you do decide to go with them, make sure you go over the policy with a fine tooth comb, as they seem to have wording to enable them to wiggle out of every claim. They are cheap for a reason!
