I've had cover with Real Insurance for my dog now for 8 years and I have never had any issues with any claims. Always fast with processing claims. The premium coverage is great for the price.

I like the idea of claiming direct from vet easy. Policy value is pretty good with comfort of being covered for any large costs etc. Claims are settled in about 3 weeks and I have been with Real since 2016.

Why would you NOT have Real Insurance for your beloved pet?
I have paid my Real pet insurance since Pebbles was 8 weeks old, she is now nearly 12. Yes its expensive but whenever I have had a problem with her I know that Real Insurance are behind me 100%. They have always dealt with my claims expeditiously and refunded any amount due into my account within a few days. I claim online which is really easy to follow. A lot of negativity has been said regarding the worth of having pet insurance. I would say that it is essential if you want peace of mind.

My family members have several pets under their Premium policy to the present day and I have been with Real Pet Insurance for the longevity of my beloved furbaby who has just passed.. I am thankful for their caring and compassionate, sympathetic nature towards not only my own furbaby but also the general wellbeing of animals all round. I thank them kindly for the lovely email of sympathy I received on the passing of my furbaby.
They have been quick and easy to deal with and have had no issues with claims or rebates for the entire duration of ...

I have been more then happy with my insurance policy with Real Insurance, I will continue using Real insurance again with my next furbaby and have suggested to join this company to not only other family members but also friends. This company has gained my trust and respect... Kind regards A continued loyal client..- Value for Money

We have had Real Insurance for our staffie since he was 10 months old. He is now 10 and a half. In this time he has had cruciate surgery and a few other minor things. Recently he slipped a disk and in the end had to have spinal surgery. I am so happy that we had the insurance to cover this. Claims were paid quickly and it is so good that the claim is sent straight from the vet, no paperwork to complete. Highly recommend it.

Our dog is two years old and was diagnosed with cataracts, which is unusual because he is so young. To us he is much more than just a dog, he’s family. We decided we want to give him the best life possible and get him surgery to fix his eyes and restore his vision. He spent three days with the amazing team at SASH vets. Real pet insurance covered 80% of his surgery, and were super quick to approve it (no hassles). I would also like to add that we didn’t have to pay the money outright as real pet insurance paid the vets directly, saving us having to fork out $8k and then claim the money back. We are so grateful for real pet insurance. Could not recommend them enough!

This company is an absolute rip off. Do yourself a favour and go elsewhere!!!! Always a reason they can't pay a rebate and absolutely not worth the money!!!
I tried to cancel my policy today only to be told I needed to keep paying it for the duration of the policy period. I pay $80 per month and I have only been able to claim for $120 during policy period. My dog had a $1400 dental operation. I got $21 back. Dental is a general exclusion apparently. Super unhappy!

I could not recommend Real Pet Insurance more highly!
I cannot thank Real Pet Insurance enough for the care and compassion they showed us when our 9 year old Labrador was diagnosed with an incurable condition that meant that we had to make the agonising decision to put him to sleep. It took three different vetinetinary clinics, and a 5 day hospital stay to diagnose what was causing his sickness. He had so many tests and procedures during this time, and having his pet Insurance with Real meant that at no point did we ever have to consider what it was costing, and instead were able to focus only on ...
Read morewhat was best for him. Our claims were handled promptly, the process was easy and always with true empathy. I honestly felt that the team knew how hard saying goodbye to our boy was for us, and that making the claim after he had passed was a necessary but terribly sad thing to do. We received a number of messages of condolences from the team, they cancelled our policy without us having to request it once they knew he had passed away, and even sent a card. We insured our Lab with Real from when he was a puppy, and could not recommend the product more.- Value for Money

The policy for my pooch was all done over the phone many years ago and i have received regular updates of price rises etc. direct debit works for me. I have been a customer for 10 years now and recently my dog broke his knee from a fall and after consults, drugs, x-rays and surgery any claim s i made were paid out within 2 days. Very fast and simple online claiming with drag and drop files. No hassles, no disputes. Well done Real pet insurance.

I think my policy was good. I do think thou that if I do get another dog I will be going with RSPCA as their price is a little cheaper than you and you get up $20,000. But this is nothing against you I have been with you for a long time. And I thank you

In my opinion vets have started charging a lot more since pet insurance. So it's a must have. I was once charged 700 dollars to keep my dog overnight. He was just sitting in a cage.
