Pet Plan Reviews

Until about three months ago, I had had no experience of pet insurance, as in 2002 we adopted a sixteen-year-old cat who was already well past the age to be eligible for insurance. Sadly, we lost her to kidney disease in August 2006. I missed her even more than I had expected to, and the house and garden just didn't seem right without a cat. I ...  Read the complete review

I currently have 2 dog insurance policies with Pet Plan. I can tell from my premiums that no matter how old your dog is, the premium is the same. I know they charge different amounts depending on where you live though. I live in one county, but my postal address has a different county in it. Pet Plan were unable to tell which county ...  Read the complete review

There’s a running joke when I arrive at the vet’s. Was my reserved parking space OK? They say my name’s on the back of a chair in the waiting room and when they redecorate I can choose the colour scheme. It lightens the moment, but it also hides an unpalatable truth. Last year I paid my vet over £3000. It’s only the middle of January and I’ve ...  Read the complete review

I have to disagree with some of the other op?s that say Petplan isn?t the cheapest. I have had many quotes from other companies and have yet to find one that is anywhere near as cheap as Petplan. Anyway on with my op? I have two lovely silver tabby cats. Leo is a long haired beauty who is (touch wood) extremely healthy, and hence has ...  Read the complete review

In an ideal world pets would benefit from free health care, but we all know this will never happen, with not enough money for humans it would be unrealistic. In television lala land Animal Hospital or Pet Rescue would sort out any problems in the blink of an eye. Well excuse my cynicism but in my experience expecting the RSPCA to rescue a stray or ...  Read the complete review

I have used Pet Plan to insure my kittens, when I sell them - this gives 6weeks cover to the new owner, at no cost to them or me. Very recectly someone had two kittens from me, which were insured for 6 weeks, as a kitten cover note policy - which covers for Vets fees, DEATH BY ILLNESS OR INJURY,loss by theft or straying, & for advertising & ...  Read the complete review

If you have ever had a pet you will know just how expensive it is, food, treats, collar and lead, plus the trips to the vets, and boy are they expensive. After my partner bought me a miniature longhaired dachshund I decided to get her insured as the vet bills are very expensive and it was going to cost an arm and a leg for her ...  Read the complete review

I discovered that animal insurance was available about 15 years ago. Since then it has always been my policy (no pun intended) to insure my dogs. Principally because if one of them was seriously ill, or involved in an accident, I would dread to think that the cost of treatment was an issue. In fact I would have found the money somehow. A ...  Read the complete review

I signed my lovely little mongrel dog Charlie up for petplan when he was just 3 months old. I decided to get pet insurance as I am on a fairly low income, so whilst I can afford the £8.85 a month premiums for Charlie's cover, and could probably just about find the £50 excess if I had to, anything beyond that would be difficult, if not ...  Read the complete review

Pet Plan certainly aren't the cheapest pet insurer, but they are one of the best. COVER FOR LIFE The main bonus that puts them ahead of the rest is their 'cover for life'. This means that each year the animal is covered for continuing illnesses. Many insurance companies only pay out for the same disease for one year only, ...  Read the complete review

I know that some members are not entirely happy with Pet Plan, but being a broker I thought it would be foolish to go uninsured for my cat Pollee. (Familiar name?!!) I pay £4 a month and after a year hadn't made any claims. The premium stayed the same so I decided to keep the insurance - and wasn't I glad I did!! Within a few ...  Read the complete review

We have been with pet plan for three years when we got our first dog. So when i decided i wanted another, naturally we put our new puppy on the policy. We looked round and found a puppy who was in a very bad way and i couldnt leave him at the place we saw him. Unfortunatley on the 22nd of December last year after what the vet had said was a long ...  Read the complete review

We have had pet insurance with PetPlan for 3 and a half years now. We decided to get it as soon as we got our lovely new puppy. We wanted the best for her should anything happen. Vets bills are so expensive and we knew that we would not be able to afford any very expensive treatment. 6 months ago, we took our Lab/Alsation to the Vet as ...  Read the complete review
