Nearly doubled price of my monthly…

Nearly doubled price of my monthly insurance for my cat. Only reason I can see is that I made a very small claim this year (less than £140, got 66 back). Massively cheaper quotes elswhere. Seems like a scam to me.

Great cover at a good price and helps the PDSA

Decided to use PSDA after my previous dog became ill and had to be put to sleep and I couldn't afford it at the time, being self employed in the pandemic. They were just wonderful.
Got our new family member and needed pet insurance it was a no brainer for us.
Also for the level of cover and no 20% of the rest of the claim which a lot of other insurance companies wanted at the time, Worked out really competativly
