    It depends on the cover your looking for, Argos see to do a good policy, Asda, Petplan, do check the small print as some wont cover once they have paid out for an illness,

    We have a dog and he is with petplan, as was our last dog, and when we needed to claim they were brilliant xx
    xx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx

    ok thanks :)
  • I'm with Argos for both my cats and they have been good when we claimed. They took longer than they advertise but they did pay up with no problems. Petplan are very good to I hear.

    Argos Platinum here *2 pets) and PatPlan (4 pets).

    Make sure you take a "for life" and NOT "per condition" policy and that you take the best cover you can afford, each of mine are covered for 7k per year vet fees.
  • I just signed up with petplan, you can get a great price on lifetime cover and 1st month free :)

    Forget Asda......... I am currently seeking advice from FSA.
    My dog had an operation to remove 4 small wart type lumps. Asda treated it as 4 different claims (because each lump was different) and took 4 lots of excess from bill. My vet could not believe it and has also written to complain.

  • I'm with AXA for mine. a few years back I was warned to stay well away from PetPlan by my vet (and it was in yourhorse magazine too) as they are picky about paying out. I've not touched them and never would, although I know other people have gotten on ok with them x
