Shortfalls

Lots of restrictions became clear AFTER receiving policy that were not clarified in initial click box application. Plus company says you can have policy within hours. It takes 10 days. Not happy with overall restrictions do will be cancelling as within cancellation period

Making a claim

Why can’t this company do not pre-authorise claims. This means that there is no certainty that the treatment will be covered. At the moment I’ve just had an quote for over £1000 for my dogs treatment, I expected to pay up the excess and the rest from insurance, but have been informed that I have to pay it all upright and claim it back, and they won’t give me any guarantee I will get it back.

Been with this provider for just less than 10 years and never needed to make a claim. They say you only find out how good insurance is until you make a claim, which sadly is too late for me.

Good so far, hoping to not be disappointed where it matters

Excellent cover with some additions. My dog is four this year and I've had to change policies due to unreasonably high renewal prices. In those cases the cover was not great, so I'm learning I also need to continue to shop around. Reading the reviews, I will bare in mind the time scales and some of the processing, but all in all, hopefully they make the changes recommended as claiming is already a stressful experience when you have to do it.

This company do not pre-authorise claims. This means that there is no certainty that the treatment will be covered and furthermore, even if it is, you may find that your vet will want/expect you to pay upfront if a claim has not been pre-authorised. They say you only find out how good insurance is when you make a claim well this firm’s process is full of holes… beware and in my case, avoid for the future!

All seems to be good

All seems to be good, a reasonable monthly payment and good cover for a 7 year old American Bulldog. Easy to set-up. :)
