Customer Service

Pros:

  • "Always kept in the loop When upset all things go out of your mind and staff kindly reminded you of pet insurance and downloaded a claim for me."
  • "Excellent we were seen by Maria the vet who was extremely thorough and kind in treating our puppy."
  • "I can’t say how happy I am with the service that we got from you guys honestly, but unfortunate we had to put our lovely dog to sleep as for she was in pain."

  • "Whilst we waited the receptionist was very friendly and reassuring."
  • "All the vets were friendly, answered all my questions honestly and made me feel more at ease."

Cons:

Cost & Pricing

Pros:

  • "The prices were explained, so no surprises, and obviously I agreed as I needed support that day for the well-being of my dog."
  • "First time I took my cat they overcharged me but said I could get a refund when the insurance came through."
  • "They were very good at explaining everything, from prices to social distancing structures."

  • "No matter how severe your pets condition, seems the main aim of these guys is to get you to let them keep your pet in overnight and charge your £1400 for the privilege."
  • "The ensuing situation that unfolded was both ridiculous and obscenely expensive."
  • "Absolutely disgusting that as only emergency vets in area wanted £149 just to see her, plus treatment."
