Pet Insurance Review

Pet insurance? Which covers cancer? UK?

I want to take out pet insurance for my rottweiler in Northern Ireland (UK) but i keep reading mixed reviews online, so far im considering M&S as Halifax worked out at 100 a month but has fantastic reviews unfortunately. Any recommendations? I don’t mind paying a lot on excess but i want a company that will pay direct not on like I pay first then they refund me type basis. And i most definitely want cover for cancer, but i’m not sure they do cover this treatment? any help please, i’m very confused! i’m reading a million terms and conditions, and its all turned to mush! thanks for your time x

I would imagine they all cover cancer, I can’t think of anyone that would exclude it. The important bit to check with whether you get lifetime cover or cover just for a year after diagnosis.
As for the paying direct, that depends on you setting an agreement with your vet to arrange direct claims. It is most vets policy to get the money from the owner and then the owner get reimbursed by the insurance company, however you could always speak to your vet in advance about the possibility of arranging a direct claim. I haven’t heard of any insurers that don’t do direct claim, but I may be wrong.
Also remember to keep your vaccinations up to date, as it’s a clause in most insurers small print and if you lapse then they won’t pay out for anything (vaccinatable disease or not).
I can’t give you an actual insurer to go for – a) because they’re all so different and it really depends on what you want and b) because I’m legally not allowed to as a vet!

A Guide for Buying Pet Insurance Online

The Quick Guide to Buying Pet Insurance Online

cheapest pet insurance, the quick guide to buying pet insurance onlineYou might think that buying pet insurance online would be a relatively simple task. Unfortunately, the range of policies and individual cover options is growing every year making the choice ever more confusing. Discover the quickest and easiest way to find and buy the right pet insurance for you online.

Not so long ago, the idea of insuring a pet was almost laughable. It was the sort of thing reserved for those who owned posh pedigree pooches that cost a small fortune to buy and to keep. Things have taken a turn, though. Rising vet fees and publicity about the expenses of owning and caring for a pet have prompted many people to invest in insurance for their cats and dogs.

Of course, the trick is to find the right pet insurance policy – the one that offers the best cover for your pet at the lowest price for you. The internet makes the process of comparing and choosing the best pet insurance policy far easier and quicker, and allows you to purchase and pay for your choice instantly online. Here are some tips to help you find and choose the best pet insurance.

Evaluate your insurance needs and prioritise

This is always a good first step, but especially so for pet insurance which covers so many different options. Do you need a policy that will cover a lifelong condition like diabetes? Do you have a pedigree pet? Is your pet a breed that has a higher chance of snapping or biting others? In each case, you’ll want to be sure that the insurance you choose covers specific claims. So know what you need before you start searching.

Search for "pet insurance reviews" in your favorite search engine.

A search for "pet insurance" will bring up lots of individual insurers. That’s helpful, but it’s not much better than calling around to each insurer. By searching for reviews, you’ll come up with a list of internet sites that allow you to check out and compare many different insurers at once. Some may even compare policies side by side for cost and benefits, and many include reviews from people who have used the firm’s insurance. Some of the criteria you might use for comparison are:

  • Premiums – how much does the policy cost per month?
  • Voluntary Excess – do you pay an excess for each condition, or an overall excess per annum?
  • Benefit Caps – how much will the policy reimburse in total? Is that per condition, per incident or overall?

Other benefits – policies offer a wide variety of other benefits from discounts on pet care products to paying kennel fees if the owner is hospitalized overnight. They may include reimbursement for expenses to find a lost pet or for canceled holiday tickets if your pet becomes ill and you return home early.

Narrow your choices and investigate further.

Read any reviews offered by customers on the review site, then check the company’s own web site. Do a further web search to check for any complaints that might be on discussion forums.

Apply for the policy that suits you best.

Before you enter any personal information, be sure that you’re on a legitimate web site and that the page on which you enter and submit your information is secure. Most insurers will confirm the acceptance of your policy immediately, and some will even email your policy documents.
