Hi Fogzo, "welcome"!
There was an article put together by MSE a couple of weeks ago: http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/insurance/cut-pet-insurance-costs
loads of useful tips in there - "dos" and "donts" etc.
Be very careful about the small print and I'd certainly recommend a "for life" policy rather than one limited to 12 months - slightly more expensive but absolutely worth it if your pet ends up having an ongoing condition.
As for me - I tend to search around as well as using the "usual suspects" like moneysupermarket, go compare etc as companies such as Direct Line don't appear in these so need a separate search.
At all costs avoid E&L - even though they'll probably come in cheaper than the others - some people have had a nightmare with them not paying out.
Good luck - if you've any queries when you find one - just ask, someone will be around to help!Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

Welcome!
It's very difficult to use a comparison site for pet insurance as you are not comparing like-with-like. As RFTA says, please do not touch E&L with a bargepole, they don't pay out. You should be looking for a 'for life' policy where the pot of money renews each and every year - AXA, PetPlan, Argos' highest level of cover and possibly one or two more. You cannot change insurer every year as any condition already seen the vet for will be excluded. Declutterbug-in-progress.⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️0
