You can spread the cost of your pet insurance over 12 months by paying by Direct Debit – and we won't charge you more to do this.
All our pet insurance policies include access to vetfone™ – a freephone 24 hour pet helpline, manned by qualified veterinary nurses who can give you guidance on the condition of any pet you're responsible for, not just your own.
Like us, as pets get older, sadly they're more likely to get ill. In fact our claims data shows that the cost of looking after your pet's health doubles every four to five years. That's why your renewal price increases each year and your excess will increase when your pet turns nine. Unfortunately, once a pet has been taken ill, in general they're more likely to get ill again. That's why, if a claim is paid, the price you will pay next year can double. It’s important you budget for renewal prices to increase as your pet gets older. How much they go up is different for everyone and depends on things like your pet’s breed, their age and health, and there is no limit to how much your renewal price can increase over time.
We like to offer our customers choice, which is why we offer three levels of cover.**
Our premier cover provides you with lifetime cover, allowing you to claim up to £7,000 in vet fees each year. We reinstate this limit annually, as long as you renew each year without a break in cover.
Standard cover offers up to £4,000 towards vet fees each year with a limit of £1,000 for each separate illness or injury each year. Like our premier policy, our standard cover is also reinstated annually, as long as you renew each year without a break in cover.
Essential cover offers you valuable protection for illnesses or injuries for a shorter period of time. It allows you to claim, for each new condition, up to a £3,000 limit in vet fees or for a maximum claim period of 12 months from the first date of vet treatment. Once you reach either, whichever comes first, you will no longer be able to claim for the same condition in the future, even if you renew your policy.
New developments in diagnosis and treatment mean that vets can now give your pet even better care. This is great news for your family pet, but has meant a rise in vet fees and the cost of claims.
Our premier or standard insurance policies offer lifetime covers, as long as you renew your policy with us and there’s no break in cover, we’ll reinstate your vet fees limit each year. So, if your pet begins to develop an ongoing condition, while insured with us, you can continue to claim for the condition each year. You may find it difficult to get this condition covered on a new policy once it is discovered as it would be classified as a pre-existing condition if you didn’t have a lifetime cover policy.
The cost of looking after your pet's health doubles every four to five years. That's why your renewal price increases each year and your excess will increase when your pet turns nine, if a claim is paid, the price you will pay next year can double. It’s important you budget for renewal prices to increase as your pet gets older, there is no limit to how much your renewal price can increase over time.
