Tesco Bank Pet Insurance reviews (100)

No recommend at all

I never made any claims but every year paid more and more this year had enough when they expected me to pay half of the money more insurance payments have gone from nearly £20 to nearly £30 and when I have cancelled they told me to pay nearly £34 final payment but for what I'm asking i have found new one similar condition and lots cheaper..would never recommend..cheaters ..if I could I would give zero star Reviewed on: 17th August 2020

Rip off renewal

Premium for our dog insurance was ok for first year but 50% hike on renewal. Customer “service” said this was due to vets in area putting charges up and the age of the dog meaning more likely to get sick. Dog is two!! Hardly geriatric and less likely to need treatment than a one year old as now neutered and less bouncy. As for vets...... insurance for my other dog (12) with Animal FrieNds went up by only 10%, despite his age. We’ve made no claims so can only suppose Tesco only want to keep customers who don’t check renewal prices. Reviewed on: 9th August 2020

Fantastic service

I don't usually praise an insurance company but Tesco Pet Insurance have been amazing! They processed my claim so quickly and unlike other companies did cover me for Euthanasia and Cremation costs for my pet no quibble no problems ❤️. Its only when you claim you find out if they are any good or not. Well top marks I'm proper impressed x Reviewed on: 31st July 2020

Good customer service

Good customer service but no loyalty and quite a price increase hence switched to another provider . Reviewed on: 26th June 2020

30% increase year on year

My dog's insurance has gone up 30% last year, 30% this year .. I was told it was due to his age (I've never claimed). I'm now putting money into a savings account instead of giving them £98 a month. Reviewed on: 17th June 2020

Excellent

Excellent , service and response to my claim for my dog , very efficient , claim went through straight away , first claim to myself ,,second direct to vet . Reviewed on: 16th March 2020

Unclear terms and conditions

We were very disappointed with our experience. It seemed like more energy was put into trying to avoid a claim than providing any sort of service. Beware that there is an exclusion for “diagnosed behavioural problems” in the small print but apparently your costs incurred in getting to a “diagnosis” are not covered. This disparity was pointed out to the insurer and I was helpfully told they had come across this issue before but it seems had not sought to clarify this to their customers. Tesco - if you wish to exclude something then how about using plain English namely “we do not cover cost incurred in the diagnosis of and treatment for behavioural problems”. That wasn’t hard was it!

Not actually covered for the first 14 days that it states

Avoid using these at all costs. Despite taking a policy out you actually are not covered for the first 14 days of your policy term despite the fact that it clearly states your term start and end dates. If anything happens to your pet in that time they will not cover it. Seriously, go elsewhere and buy your pet insurance from a professional outfit. Reviewed on: 20th April 2019

Quick payout

I brought Tesco Bank Pet Insurance about 14 days before my cat had an accident. The vet helpline was great and the customer service was superb. Claims form was easy to fill in and they payed out within days! Highly recommend. You don't want to worry about money for vet bills whilst one of your pets is ill so it was a huge weight off my shoulders. The policies are cheap and have a large payout and low excess.
