Easy to claim!

Been with Bow Wow for 12 months now. Good value, easy to use portal and making claims. Renewing policy went up a lot, nearly cancelled but offered 3 months free which made it affordable. Would recommend.

Really quick and efficient.

An extremely swift response and payment for my recent claim for my dog's recent illness.
The expense of the vet bills came at such a difficult time and I was worried it would take a long time for you to settle my claim. I’m so pleased I needn’t have worried.
The claims process was really easy all online. No quibbling or arguing at all. Straightforward and extremely satisfactory. Thank you!

I always recommend Bow Wow Meow pet insurance when asked. They are very easy to deal with, and provide excellent value for money. I wish I had my first dog insured with them too.

So glad I my pet was covered

published

I have been very happy with the cover I have received through Bow Wow Meow insurance. My dog developed a form of skin cancer and the policy has covered her chemotherapy which would otherwise have been a heavy financial burden in our family. Claims have been rapidly processed and the link to vet computer systems makes making a claim easy.

Not far from perfect!

published

Easy to set up, easy to lodge, time company needs for processing the claims is alright (could
be under 14 days... especially with big sums)
Been with the company for a year now, just insured my second puppy

It is very expensive but compared to other Insurances you at least pay back claims, heaps of companies refuse it.

We once had an issue and we called to discuss and it turned out very good at the end. Thanks for that!

Thanks for the review Amanda. There were a few delays due to the Covid-19 situation, however, we are now operating at full capacity again so I am sure claim processing will be better if you claim again.

Has been a great ‘peace of mind’ to be covered.

published

It has been a very easy process to setup my pets cover from the beginning and to make claims. The claims are taking 1 to 2 weeks once lodged by my vet, directly to Bow Wow on my behalf. The benefits are as advertised, 80% of the bills, up to the limit allowed. I have had cover for just 1 year, with my fur baby having several issues in the last few months, all have been covered.

I have been with BWM for 2 years with no claims up until recently. I was not sure what to expect (based on feedback on this site) but am happy to report that my claim was processed, approved and paid in a very reasonable timeframe (given the current circumstances).

So easy to claim

Our Golden Retriever had emergency surgery and it ended up being quite expensive. The ease of claiming and the quick response meant we had one less thing to worry about. Got a fair return and would happily recommend Bow Wow Meow to others.

80% refund claim paid

published

Having reluctantly made the grudge purchase of cat insurance for my 6-month-old kitten in early December 2022, little did I know that it was the best choice that I could have financially made during the typically costly Christmas period.
Three months later my kitten accidentally fell 1.5 stories down from my balcony to the concrete floor below fracturing both arms and also dislocating one.
Following $10,033 of surgery and hospital treatment later, Bow Wow Meow effortlessly within 3 weeks promptly refunded 80% of my claim.
Never will I stray from taking out pet insurance or from Bow Wow Meow ever again!

Easy claim process after my dog was operated on to remove a twist tie she’d eaten.

I received the stated 80% refund quickly and without any problems.
The claim process was easy as well.
Definitely happy I took out cover with Bow Wow Meow, which had been recommended to me.
