Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the seamless and prompt handling of claims, often highlighting the efficiency of the payment process. Many people appreciate the excellent customer service, noting that staff are friendly, helpful, and easy to communicate with, even offering support through live chat. The overall service is frequently described as fantastic, with many users recommending the company for its reliability and supportive approach during difficult times. However, some customers also noted significant and unjustified increases in premiums, with policies sometimes doubling or tripling in price over a short period, even for loyal customers with few claims. This has led some to question the value for money, especially when compared to other providers or when facing high co-payments and capped payouts for common procedures.

Pet protect were excellent

Pet protect were excellent agreed to pay my Vets directly, there was no haggling or having to go back and forward with receipts, it all went on between the Veterinary practice and Petprotect, leaving me to look after my dog Flynn and helping to get him fit and well again.

Pet Protect: Exceptional Service and Hassle-Free Claims!

​I cannot recommend Pet Protect highly enough. After being with them for a significant period and needing to make multiple claims for my pet, my experience has been absolutely flawless.
​The claims process has been seamless every single time. I've had no issues whatsoever with the paperwork or speed of reimbursement. It's a huge relief to know that when my pet needs care, I can focus on their health without worrying about fighting with my insurer over payment.
​Beyond the efficiency, their customer service team is truly outstanding. Every time I have called them with a question or a concern, the staff have been incredibly lovely, kind, and genuinely helpful. They are a professional and compassionate team, and they truly live up to the "protect" in their name.
​If you are looking for pet insurance where the claims are quick and the people are kind, look no further. Highly recommended!

I disliked that on top of me paying monthly for insurance to use occasionally & paying my excess. I then had to pay a further £146 vet contribution.
