Last night a chap from PetPlan rang me to advise me that Dillons 6 weeks free insurance is about to run out and that I need to renew. He started quoting me their top policy, with I think £50 excess for something like £30 per month. Cut a long story short, when I mentioned that I could get it cheaper at M&S he got a bit panicky, as if he was desperate to sell me a policy there and then!!
After ratteling through all his policies, the then proceeded to tell me about their budget policy (which is not worth the paper it is written on) and that came to £15 per month with £50 excess but there was hardly any vet fee cover, and almost nothing in the way of loss, death, etc.... When I told him I could still get it cheaper elsewhere he got really stroppy and hung up on me
He seemed under sooo much pressure to get me to sign there and then...!
Anyway, M&S are going to give me a great level of cover, no excess for £14.30 per month, and I am happy with that! They said the policy docs would be with me in 5 days - will see if they arrive!!
