Petprotect - do not use

The company is not answering the phones, emails or other communications, even the vets can't get through to them

Unpaid claims are stacking up at our vets,the few that are being returned come with a cursory note stating they will not pay the claims, no other reason given

If you need pet insurance, give them a miss

  • At Pet Protect we pride ourselves on the excellent service we have provided to all our customers over the years and we are sincerely sorry for the delay you have experienced in this case.

    As part of our ongoing efforts to continuously improve our customer service and management processes, we migrated to a new Policy Admin application (including Claims, Billing and CRM) effective 1st August 2010.

    Despite our best efforts to plan a successful migration, we experienced a number of challenges as a result of the migration. During the month of August, customer experienced delays in processing claims and collections. As a result, we experienced an increase in calls into our customer service agents.

    We have been able to solve the majority of the issues and are processing claims in a timely manner and will shortly be at optimum levels for collection and cancellation services.

    We remain committed to providing you and all of our customers with the highest standards of service in the industry.

    We appreciate your patience and understanding on this matter.

    We're sorry for messing up but we think we're a great company

    Our old system was crap so we brought in a new computer system on the 1st August 2010

    Everyone knows there are always problems when you bring in a new computer system but we did not take these into account. As things were not being done properly, we had a lot more customers ringing up to complain and ask when things were going to be sorted out / paid

    We've pulled our finger out and things are getting better

    We're sorry and the person in charge of the new computer project has been told off and given a pay rise

    P.S Rather then spend hours thinking up what words you could use to try and polish a tu£d you could have asked me, it only took me a few minutes
