    Asking too much about what?

    If you mean E and L, I think you have seen what we think?

    What also concerns me is that you seem to think they would cover ongoing /existing/ previously treated conditions and no company will do that.

    What a strange turn of phrase you have! Snowman is a vet, should tell you everything you need to know.

    erm...google E&L...if that doesn;t put you off, nothing wiil. they are seriously crap and hardly any vets will deal with them - my vet even told me to avoid them like the plague.

    i wouldn't wait until the 10th either, just leave them now - the sooner you start your policy with a new company the better
  • I think I get the picture, thanks. As to your latter comment, I did not think they would cover pre existing conditions nor would any other companies. I have heard though that they will exclude anything that is linked to illness/condition in the past even if pet has recovered,i.e cancerous lump removed 5 years ago, will they refuse to pay if pet has another cancerous lump even if not in same place(see where I am coming from).


    Once again thanks to you all for the great E & L endorsement.

    Yes all insurers will exclude pre-existing conditions and any condition that might be linked to a previous condition. So water infection can = no bladder or kidney cover!

  • Another E & L hater here.

    Communications in and out are abysmal, in fact, non existant. Claims go unanswered and unattended for weeks and months, if at all.

    How they can continue trade as an insurer beggars belief. There must be an industry watchdog who ought to invalidate their rights to call themselves insurers.

    Avoid at all costs.
