Petplan

...6 weeks free insurance with Petplan by the breeder, which was then up to us to renew it. We did so and we subsequently went on to insure two further Persian cats and a puppy we bought several years later. We chose Petplan because at the time they were the only company offering lifetime cover. What this means in simple terms is that if your pet develops an illness which is chronic, an example of which would be diabetes, the policy will continue to ...
...are also policies sold by Petplan and other companies now called Time Limited Cover and these will cover the cost of illnesses and accidents which can be treated just for that policy year. These are much cheaper and may appeal to you if you have a young moggie, for example, who may stray onto a road and have an accident. Beware though in my experience even young dogs can unexpectedly fall victim to diseases like cancer, and if you buy this type of ...

Review of Petplan

...constant treatment. I gave petplan a call and they were fabulous. Rather than send me a claim form they suggested I download one again an easy process. Then I filled in my bits and passed it to the vet'. Ten days later I had the cheque. I now make claims every two months or so and the service has been top notch. Payments are always fast and if they have any queries they give me a call. I have the maximum cover which includes unlimited vet's bills. ...
...on each claim. Petplan will apply exclusions if your animal has been sick in the last year, for example gastroenteritus type illness was excluded for Pom. However, if the condition does not recur in two years then the exclusion can be lifted. There are a range of policies to suit most pockets. I would recommend choosing one with unlimited vet's bills, had I not done this I would be seriously out of pocket. Cannot really comment on the APR as I ...

Review of Petplan

...simply continue the policy with Petplan if I wished at the end of the six-week period. I received a leaflet inviting me to telephone them or visit their website for more details. Examples of premiums were given in the leaflet, but because they vary according to where you live, I thought it would make sense to enter my details online to get an exact quote. At the same time I requested a quote from another company and found that it was in fact cheaper ...
...what did make me choose Petplan over their cheaper rival was the fact that they offer lifetime cover. This means that if your pet - cat, dog, or rabbit - develops a chronic illness such as arthritis, Petplan will cover this right into their old age, as long as you renew your lifetime policy every year without a break. The premium for my cat is £8.30 per month, but as I said this is just a guide as premiums very according to where you live. For this ...

Review of Petplan

...have also been told that Petplan won't pay out on a traffic accident unless both you AND your horse are wearing reflective clothing. Fellow riders do check this with your terms and conditions. I have decided to cancel my insurance with them and get just public liability cover and personal accident with British Horse Society at a fraction of the cost. My Home Contents insurance may cover me for my tack so I shall give that a go. At least THEY were ...
