Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 275 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the support team for being friendly, approachable, and providing genuinely helpful guidance during stressful situations. Policyholders note that veterinary bills and insurance claims are handled remarkably quickly, smoothly, and without unnecessary bureaucratic fuss. Many consumers highlight the great ease of communicating through online chat facilities and speaking directly with polite representatives. However, some customers also noted rapidly increasing policy prices, large annual renewals, and increasingly mounting expenses over long periods. A small group of reviewers additionally experienced unexpected excess charges and substantial percentage contributions when processing their claims.

Cat Insurance Cover

I recently moved my cat insurance over to Pet Protect because they were very competitive on price while still offering great cover. The process was straightforward and easy to complete, and I was pleased with the range of cover included in the policy. So far, I’ve been very happy with the service and feel confident that my cats are well protected.

Excellent service

We had our dog insured with Petprotect for many years, when we started to claim for arthritis injections and complimentary therapy claims were dealt with direct from our vet and any I made direct were always easy to do and handled quickly, always keeping us informed. We have recently lost our dog and again the service and ease of dealing with pet protect has been amazing, I would highly recommended.

Ripoff

Staff answered the telephone with professional and curious manner. However to have to pay the vet a 14.5% of the total bill is excessive. What is the point of having an insurance when you punish us with every minute charge ie food !!!.
