Review of the Tesco Bank, Pet Insurance:

No Loyalty for staying with Tesco, just higher prices

2
Have never made a claim on either of my policies, however, the renewal price on both policies has jumped 62% on each policy! I accept that cost do rise every year, (exactly what all the others say as well!) but when its as high as it is, +£200 on each policy, then £200 excess and 20% dual payment on the rest of the bill, I'm wondering if its worth it! It seems if you change your insurance company each year you get the £200 rise off your new policy. It pays to shop around now and not stay loyal. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2025

So easy to set up, I have been with them for ea number of years now and the price has always been competitive. I recently had to make a claim and the process was so easy and the payout came quickly with no issues. Reviewed on: 25th July 2016

Most companies charge a fortune to insure Shar Pei, with five to insure price has to be a factor. Tesco's provide an excellent level of cover at a fair and very competetive price. Reviewed on: 22nd July 2016

Quick payment no questions asked when my dog had surgery.

5
My GSD had a mammary lump, had surgery to remove her glands, all went well but had some reaction to the pain killers two trips to the vets over the weekend to get sorted. When the claim went in it was paid to the full amount no questions about the extra cost. Reviewed on: 26th November 2015

Helpful friendly and very efficient, quick with payments.

5
Right from getting a quote they were friendly and helpful, I have had to make 2 claims for my dog on the first claim I phoned them and they were friendly and helpful and payment was paid into my bank very quickly. On the 2nd claim the vet sent in the claim direct and contacted me a short time later to say the bill had been paid in full, so I didn't even need to anything myself. I would give this insurance 10 out of 10 and recommend to everyone, this is a great service for a very good price. Well done Tesco. Reviewed on: 26th November 2015

A bit expensive

Lesser monthly premium would be very welcomed as I find £5.72 a bit expensive for a non pedigree male cat ....I received cheaper quotes elsewhere after I bought my policy unfortunately Reviewed on: 10th November 2015

I have bought tesco pet insurance and I have to say I am very happy with it,I would say it is much better value for money than other company's that I have been with in the past.Also I couldn't have been happier with the help I received when trying to decide what policy to take out,I was not rushed into picking a policy that cost the most that I didn't need.I think I will be staying with tesco for sometime.
