Tesco Bank Pet Insurance reviews (108)

Tesco pet insurance

Tesco Pet Insurance Totally immoral! Beware on lifetime policies an excess is charged for an ongoing claim for a very sick dog every time the policy renews. Significantly hype your rates every year and charge the excess each year on the same ongoing claim. Disgusting. Reviewed on: 16th June 2023

Fair and works as should

Have had to claim had no issues easy and upfront Reviewed on: 16th June 2023

Claims condition is pre existing and refuses to pay

Absolute shambles! AVOID AVOID AVOID! My dog had an ear infection in April 2022. Then in January 2023 I took her to the vets for skin problems (flakey skin all over including ears) Tesco bank determined that because of the ear infection in 2022 her skin condition was pre exsisting even after a statement from my vets stating that the 2 visits to the vets were not connected they then decided to use their in house vets who had never ever seen my dog to determine whether the 2 ev...

Greedy

With one claim last year of £436 my one year old cat's renewal cost has increased from £210.28 to £366.15 that 57% increase. Daylight robbery, I won't be renewing my policy with them. Reviewed on: 27th April 2023

Good product

Good product quite expensive but good. Reviewed on: 17th March 2023

Refused to cover massive vet bill

Totally disappointed and angry Tescos refused to cover claiming pets ear infection which has now resulted in ear polyp was preexisting. Truth is they were never going to pay out for anything and now im left with a thousands of pounds vet bill! Reviewed on: 17th January 2023

Disappointed

I was disappointed Tesco Pet Insurance couldn't settle the full amount of my final cost when my cat became extremely ill and finally had to be euthanised. The vets tried very hard with emergency treatment costing around £1000. Tesco only paid the euthanasia fees of under £200. They claimed my cat had shown a change in behaviour before I started the policy back in January 7 months ago. The date they quoted does not even make sense as she was in perfect health then. She did not ev... Reviewed on: 4th October 2022

Terrible service and they waste time!

This must be the only company that still writes to other companies for information, clearly one of their many time wasting tactics, totally incompetent. Wish I'd used a different company. Avoid, avoid, avoid! Reviewed on: 26th September 2022

Avoid

Not a good company my advice avoid; your unlikely to get a sensible answer from them. We are about to make a formal complaint Reviewed on: 19th September 2022

Pet insurance claim

Insurance claim submitted for my dog after his operation to remove a benign lump. Settled within days. Amazing customer service. Reviewed on: 5th September 2022
