    My Newfoundland was insured with DBI for all of it's life (14.5yrs). Overall I have to say that I was happy with DBI. On the whole payments were received promptly, yes the premium went up annually, as it does with all of these companies but disputes were minimal. As my dog got older DBI did slap on a ban to claim for existing conditions saying we had claimed to the max for the condition but overall I would recommend them. Customer service was always excellent.

    Recently, my 8 month old cocker spaniel cassie, became ill, she had severe diarrhoea and sickness and obviously we took her to the vets, after weeks of treatment, (which we thought was covered by DBI) the vet rang to say DBI werent going to pay the bill! Consequently we are £1700 in debt to the vets surgery and cassie is still having treatment. We rang DBI to ask why (as they hadnt rang us to tell us) and they said as Cassie started with the illness a week before we took her to the vet we ...

    Recently we had a £1200 vet bill which we thought would be covered but because our cat is over 10 yrs old we have had to pay 35% of the bill which was unexpected and a disaster for us. I understand this is common with insurance companies once a cat is 10 but others charge a much lowere percentage. After being with them 20 years so disappointed. This experience has confirmed that we will never use dbi again.

    We had our German Shepherd dog for almost 11yrs, we made one claim during that time, our dog had Arthritis and the first visit to the Vet for that cost around £130, so after paying the Vet we made out the claim form and sent it to D.B.I they did pay out slowly after having deducted the £60 excess, fair enough, we did have an excess on the policy. I do think they could have paid out quicker though.
    At the end of June this year our dog became very sick, (she had been in a lot of pain ...

    I had a dog that was insured with DBI Insurance and unfortunately it was an animal which had major health problems. Every claim, despite being continouous, was disputed, and they took ages to settle. They always argued every little point, even though I proved them wrong on every occasion. In the end, I cancelled the cover as I couldn't take the hassle anymore. I carried the cost of the treatment from then, until his death this year, myself. I would warn anyone not to touch this company with a ba ...
