“Dreadful company!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by NinaKP2023 on 30/01/2023

If there was a 0 they'd get it! diabolical to deal with, don't answer queries on the phone and never respond to email queries either. When we put in our first claim for arthritis which is ongoing, they took months to decide if they were going to pay out and then more weeks to pay up. We have ongoing claims into them and put in our last one weeks ago, not even loaded omto the system yet so will take months to get paid. I dread to think if you needed major surgery claiming back thousands! they either wouldn't pay or take 6 months to pay. Dreadful! do NOT go with them

“Absolute Terrible”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Clare32 on 01/11/2022

Took a lifetime policy out. To be told recently after my 9 year old dog died that she wasn't covered as she was nine. So that's not lifetime then is it. Also a brain tumour is not classed as an illness so basically have been paying a policy which doesn't exist. After been told the same by the very bad customer services department that the clauses say all this and I should of read the terms & conditions better. Absolutely dispicable.

“Absolutely horrendous”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Rayanc78 on 23/03/2022

Absolutely horrendous. I've had pet insurance for over 20 years and this company is simply the worst. They take an absolute age to p[process any claim and try their hardest to avoid paying out. Communication is non-existent and any emails sent to them go unanswered. One of my cats died back in December and still they haven't completed the claim. They're excellent at taking the money but when it comes to claiming the customer service is absolutely appalling. All my policies are getting transferred to an alternative provider

So, I have now emailed twice with details of my policy etc. as requested. 30th March and 12th April. No surprises - no acknowledgment of submission, in fact, no response at all and no resolution to my issue. It's now 4 months since our beautiful cat passed away.

“Awful customer service ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by 336O'Neill on 01/04/2019

If I could rate them 0 I would. Worst company ever, can't tell me before I get my pet treated whether I can claim or not. Told them exactly what the problem is and the 2 lines of treatment. Their advice - get it done put the claim in we will then make a decision!!!!!! Ombudsman tomorrow. The silence was deafening when I asked it her pet was insured through purely pets!!!!! That speaks volumes. I will advice all my friends on a pet social media site not to touch you with a barge pole. No wonder the monthly fee is reasonable.

“Do not insure with Purely Pets”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Fisher1975 on 11/04/2018

This company will do everything it can to avoid paying out. A complete waste of money and I had one if their more expensive policies. Next time I will pay a bit more with a more reputable company. I wish I'd done a bit more research before insuring with them. They do not deserve one star.

“Avoid”

★☆☆☆☆

written by burtie123 on 10/09/2016

If you automatically renew(Which really means they take your money without your permission) They keep the direct debit already paid, cancel insurance from that day and demand more money for cancellation.) Send threatening letter. AVOID AVOID heavy handed contracts that prove they are in this for all the money they can get !! Purely Pets Agents

“Appalling company constant to pay up ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Ellymo on 05/09/2016

I have been with this company 3 years and the first claim I have put in because my dog as cardiomyopathy. So not only have I had the stress of a very poorly dog but trying to claim money off this joke of an insurance company that obviously don't mind taking your money but do not want to part with there's.I seriously would discourage anyone from taking cover with purely pets. I was even told to be quiet a listen by an employee. Not impressed at all they have lost documents or said they have not received faxes of my vets numerous times. So they say. I wish I had known what a absolute joke of a company they was before I had taken out insurance

“Don't waste your money”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 22/04/2015

Cheap premium but they increased it by over 50% as soon as our dog was 8 yrs old, i.e. the following year! Once we realised and tried to cancel they charged £30 for the cancellation. Try Tesco or Saga, but they're probably all at it ...

“Very rude customer service ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 04/03/2015

My pet insurance doubled on renewal ,I hadn't noticed till a couple of months after they took the direct debit, as my email had been closed due to be hacked, when I rang to ask why.? As I hadn't made a claim, they said my dog was a year older, and it was my fault I had no notice because everything is emailed, and because I ticked T&c box I now have to pay a extra admission fee, for cancelling the insurance , very rude I can't see how one year can make a 80% increase , I wouldn't recommend at all!!!!
