Review of the Purely Pets, Pet insurance:

Let me tell you about this company. I have had a year plus ongoing complaint so much so I'm first name terms with the Escalations team. Anyway that aside. Monday morning 4am my beautiful dog takes a negative turn, I do what anyone would do which is call the vet, I rush to the out of hours vet which is half an hour away. By 5am I'm crying and being informed that she has heart failure and her lungs are full of fluid. The choices are to try and pain relief and do as much as they can or euthanasia. Can't even say it without getting upset. What I should have done is consult the small print of my policy because, I should have left her on oxygen and comatose for 43 days which is then 36 months. Because guess what these sneaky something-holes have inserted into there contract. No cementation fees until your policy is 36 months. Mine was 34 weeks and 2 weeks. You're reading this going - well no big deal that's the policy. Yeah I get that. That doesn't diminish the overall standard of fights I've had with Purely Pets and this is the topper. I mean come on, what kind of clause even is that? In many ways it isn't even about the money £300 it is what it is. Its the rawness of feeling. See how you feel if you fall foul of being unfortunate of these. Reviewed on: 14th February 2024

If we really love our pets, as the vast majority of pet owners do, we want the very best for them. I get the peace of mind from knowing that Izzy is insured by one of the best and maybe the best pet insurance company around. John Marsh Reviewed on: 7th October 2021

My miniature schnauzer developed diabetes recently. I am so thankful that I had the good sense to have taken out insurance with P P years ago. I have found them to be helpful and responsive on every occasion Reviewed on: 7th October 2021

Simple and quick

When your pet insurance company puts up your yearly premium at an extortionate amount when you haven't even claimed it was time to start looking. I didn't have to look far as Purely Pets stood out straightaway. Easy to use and choose level cover and and a good price and far cheaper than my previous provider. The lady on the phone was so helpful and would recommend using their service. I'm staying with this cover. Reviewed on: 7th October 2021

When Ava was extremely poorly last year, Purely Pets didn’t hesitate to settle the vets bills. I even had a phone call from a lady asking how Ava was doing. On another time when our lovely Nina was suffering and too poorly to be taken to the vets to be PTS, they paid for the vets costs. Reviewed on: 7th October 2021
