Purely Pets Pet insurance reviews (2030)

Review of the Purely Pets, Pet insurance:

Poor service, slow claims process, rising premiums

2
With insurance, there are limited interactions upon which to base your judgment. My experiences with Purely Pets thus far have generally been unfavourable. In fairness, the premiums seem competitive for the level of cover - although we will only truly be able to assess that if/when they pay out on a claim! However, they have increased the premium aggressively in year two, despite our pets being young, healthy (no prior claims) and kept indoors. They increased our premiums further when we told them we had moved (from West London to home counties and the pets never leave the house, so it's hard to see what possible change there could be to the risk profile). And now to my ongoing claim. Purely Pets don't pay for treatment up front so you are already having to incur expenses and wait to claim back. Then they have busted through their already lengthy claim assessment period with nothing but standard, identically worded text messages in the meantime, telling me not to worry. I sent a message to follow up and they have busted through their timeframe for responding to that too! Will they ever respond? Will they ever process my claim? The customer service is slow to non-existent and the fervour with which they increase premiums is another bad sign. (My claim has not yet been assessed, so this review is not influenced by a good or bad result). Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Wish I had insured my pedigree poodle with them earlier. I went with a market leader originally who was the MOST expensive. But as my dog aged the premiums soared beyond reason. I then found Purely pets and halved my premiums in a stroke for very similar cover. Reviewed on: 16th July 2021

Nobody wants to have to use their pet insurance but if & when you need to you want to know everything is going to be taken care of with no fuss. That’s exactly what has happened to me this year unfortunately my poor boy has had a run of bad luck this year & had to go to vets twice for different things & despite it been a worrying time the one thing I didn’t have to worry about was his insurance company messing around. Would highly recommend, great service. Thank you Reviewed on: 16th July 2021
