Petplan is amazing !!

published

We have been with Petplan for 5 years and they have always been amazing. Our dog had a diagnosis of hip displaysia and they have always paid out on all claims without question. I highly recommend them as they have always been helpful and worth the policy amount. I think they are better than my own health insurance which is WAY more expensive.

Claims Service Is Terrible - Probably The Worst I've Experienced

published

So far we are still waiting on an outcome for both of our cats claims
It has been back and forth several times, and they don't seem to be able to keep track of the claim or the paperwork, or what cat we are claiming for. They sent an email to a vet asking for history on our cat - which we have never used, and are over 170km away. Given my occupation is Insurance Broker - I thought having Pet Insurance was a must. I am concerned we have wasted our money on this product. Had the policies for 3-4 years and this is our first claim. Disastrous so far . I will be spending time this weekend reviewing the claims, and the PDS.

Insurance that just works

published

Policy was easy to set up, just flowed on from complimentary cover provided by breeder. My Border Collie had eye surgery in his first 12 months. Petplan were great paid claim in 1 week. He now has a major joint condition requiring ongoing and sometimes expensive treatment, Petplan, again, have been great all claims settled within 3-4 days.
We have been with Petplan for 2 and a half years and am so happy with the cover. I continue to recommend Petplan to my friends and urge everyone to consider Petpan for their animals

Great cover for that just in case.

The policy was setup by my breeder. We continued on our cover with Petplan. We had a major problem in the first 6 months, pet plan rescued us financially. Claims were lodged and paid within a week or so.

Pretty good

published

Easy and quick to set up, claims get processed reasonably fast, and they are easy to contact. One of our kitties has had health issues, and we could not have afforded his treatment without Petplan...big thank you!! We have had the insurance for four years now, no problems so far.

Was so happy I decided to go with PetPlan insurance

published

Have had my policy for five years and had to make a claim, found Petplan to be very professional and efficient with the minimum of fuss. The claim was paid direct to my bank account within 2 weeks of forwarding the claim. Very happy policy holder.

I have made several claims through Petplan, including a very expensive one - $14,000 all up. Petplan has never caused me any problems and have paid money direct to my vet so I did not have to pay up front after initial costs over $150. Very happy

Good value.

published

I've had petplan for my horses for the last 3 years. Claims have been promptly attended to and resolved.
Only negative is that they're not so good at returning calls, and the phones always seem busy, so you have to leave a message.

I received an email that one of my horses needed to be moved to a Veteran Plan. I rang twice to discuss and left a message, but nobody returned my call. So I believe that the house is currently uninsured? Thanks.

Was a lifesaver to have this insurance

published

We have been with PetPlan since our dog was a new puppy. Petplan promptly covered the expenses incurred for knee replacement surgery and post surgery (physio and hydrotherapy) recovery. The Policy was a lifesaver. Whilst not cheap, it has certainly been worth it in the long run. Thanks

Easy & fast claims

We have been with Pet Plan for nearly 3 years. Whilst the premium is a little more than other insurers- the pay off is an efficient claim process with a minimal fixed excess. We have made two claims, both settled within 7 days. Awesome value

Worth for money

published

I have two English cocker spaniel, one male and one female. I claimed several times to cover the cost of treatment of pancreatitis, skin dermatitis and foreign bone extraction from female cockers mouth. It all went smoothly after submitting all required documents. And I am very happy with the pet plan insurance policy.

Thank god for pet insurance.

My policy is excellent value for money. They are friendly, helpful and extremely prompt. We have only had our policy for 2 years and have unfortunately had to make 2 claims. Both experiences have been the same. I cant fault them at all.

Hi Debbie,

Stamp Duty is a government duty payable on insurance products. Stamp Duty is not set by Petplan.

Pet Insurance - Covered For Life Classic 1

Does Petplan cover Cruciate Ligament Conditions ? On this current webpage /listings/petplan-pet-insurance-covered-for-life-classic-1 - it says, "Not Included" and the Pet Insurance Policy Booklet does not explicitly mention this.

1 answer
Petplan
SupportPetplan

Hi Ros,

We are proud to have helped many policyholders whose dogs have had Cruciate Ligament issues. However the coverage depends on pre-existing conditions, waiting periods, exclusions and a range of other factors as claims are individually assessed.

Please call us on 1300 738 225 so we can explain this in greater detail.

Kind Regards,

Thomas
Petplan Social Team

Hi Charlotte,

I’m sorry to hear that your pet needs surgery.

Petplan do not offer a pre-approval service. If you would like to consult a team member please provide your policy number and they will be in contact.
