Direct Line Pet Insurance

Took out Essential Cover online for a puppy, when i took out the policy nothing came up online saying that you couldnt make a claim within the first 14 days of taking out the policy, even thought they take you money straight away. Puppy broke leg, thinking all is well with direct line (CON Artists) and gets £1500 vet bill and £3,000 opperation bill. Wont ever use them again, you dont take out car insurance and not covered the first 14 days so why with pet insurance..... absolute robbing ...  Read the complete review

I decided to take out pet insurance for my 2 border collies. I browsed a few websites and finally decided on Direct Line, partly because I already have car insurance with them and party because their deal seemed quite good. I ordered my pet insurance online and this was very easy to do. I found their website very easy to navigate, and it has a nice simple layout. The policy could not be used until 14 days after I had applied for it (I assume this is to save Direct Line having customers signing up at the last minute when they know they are going to have an expensive vet bill. The online process was very quick and simple, they asked for various details about my ...  Read the complete review

We always used to use Pet Insurance for our cats and were loyal to Pet Plan, one of the leading Pet Insurance providers for many years.

In the end we decided to go with Direct Line for our preferred provider and this is our experience so far. Getting started was easy as we already had a motor insurance with Direct ...  Read the complete review

Keeping any animal can be costly and when they start to get old then it becomes a vey costly time with vet bills especially, that is why you should take out pet insurance and if I were you I would take it out with Direct Line. When I took out my pet insurance with them I did so online and it could not have been easier, the website is very clear and simple to use and navigate. In order to avoid the dodgier people amongst us taking out a policy ...  Read the complete review

I have recently been toying with the idea of taking out pet insurance as it's one of those catch 22 situations where you stop to wonder if the worst should happen. Of course we all hope it doesn't but for peace of mind I decided to take the plunge. The insurance policy I chose was with direct line as it's a name which appears many times on television adverts and this along with the competitive price, made my mind up for me. Thankfully having never done anything like this before, I was relieved to see that this would not be too much of a lengthy process. The application itself was fairly easy to do as the options and information was presented in a clear concise ...  Read the complete review
